Mutation Testing: Fewer, Faster, and Smarter

Ökat användande av testautomation föranleder en grundläggande fråga: Hur tillförlitliga är egentligen alla dessa automatiserade tester? Inom den akademiska forskningen anses mutationstestning vara den mest lovande tekniken för att bedöma en testsvits förmågas att upptäcka fel. Tekniken introducerar avsiktligt fel (så kallade mutanter) i produktionskoden och utvärderar hur många av felen som upptäcThe growing reliance on automated software tests raises a fundamental question: How trustworthy are these automated tests? Today, mutation testing is acknowledged within academic circles as the most promising technique for assessing the fault-detection capability of a test suite. The technique deliberately injects faults (called mutants) into the production code and counts how many of them are cau

Electric heavy-duty trucks - Policy Outlook : Planned and implemented policies to support battery electric heavy-duty vehicles in Sweden, Austria, Germany, the Netherlands, UK and California (US)

The transport sector accounted for 37% of global CO2 emissions from end-use sectors in 2021. For the transport- and road freight sector to contribute to emissions reduction targets while still meeting the foreseen increase in transport demands, decarbonization will play a key role. This study focus on battery-electric heavy-duty trucks and the objective is to provide an overview of policy instrume

Adult hippocampal neurogenesis and social behavioural deficits in the R451C Neuroligin3 mouse model of autism are reverted by the antidepressant fluoxetine

Neuron generation persists throughout life in the hippocampus but is altered in animal models of neurological and neuropsychiatric diseases, suggesting that disease-associated decline in cognitive and emotional hippocampal-dependent behaviours might be functionally linked with dysregulation of postnatal neurogenesis. Depletion of the adult neural stem/progenitor cell (NSPCs) pool and neurogenic de

Numerical Study and Experimental Verification of Biomass Conversion and Potassium Release in a 140 kW Entrained Flow Gasifier

In this study, a Eulerian-Lagrangian model is used to study biomass gasification and release of potassium species in a 140 kW atmospheric entrained flow gasifier (EFG). Experimental measurements of water concentration and temperature inside the reactor, together with the gas composition at the gasifier outlet, are used to validate the model. For the first time, a detailed K-release model is used t

Bifrost : A Secure, Scalable and Efficient File Sharing System Based on Dual Deduplication

We consider the problem of sharing sensitive files across users while relying on a common, untrusted third-party, e.g., a Cloud Storage Provider (CSP). Although users can rely on a secure peer-to-peer (P2P) channel for file sharing, this introduces potential delay on the data transfer and requires the sender to remain connected while the transfer process occurs. Instead, users can upload informati

LiquidReactionCell - a versatile setup for in situ synchrotron studies of compounds in liquid suspension and solution

There is an increasing interest in understanding the atomic level formation of functional materials, e.g. through nucleation and growth from their precursors in solution or through chemically induced phase transitions. Such information is achievable though synchrotron-based in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and total scattering (TS) experiments. In this study we present a new and versati

Bimolecular Reaction Mechanism in the Amido Complex-Based Atomic Layer Deposition of HfO2

The surface chemistry of the initial growth during the first or first few precursor cycles in atomic layer deposition is decisive for how the growth proceeds later on and thus for the quality of the thin films grown. Yet, although general schemes of the surface chemistry of atomic layer deposition have been developed for many processes and precursors, in many cases, knowledge of this surface chemi

Safety and efficacy of tenecteplase in patients with wake-up stroke assessed by non-contrast CT (TWIST): a multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled trial

Background: Current evidence supports the use of intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase in patients with wake-up stroke selected with MRI or perfusion imaging and is recommended in clinical guidelines. However, access to advanced imaging techniques is often scarce. We aimed to determine whether thrombolytic treatment with intravenous tenecteplase given within 4·5 h of awakening improves functiona

NORDIC COURSE DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION IN AN EMERGING FIELD OF ENGINEERING

Four decades ago, a specific engineering BSc study program in Fire Safety Engineering was formed at Lund University, Sweden, and several Nordic universities have since included courses on such subjects in their own BSc og MSc programmes. The field of fire safety engineering encompasses topics from a wide range of engineering disciplines, including mathematics, physics, chemistry and advanced engin

Diagnostic imaging strategies of acute intracerebral hemorrhage in European academic hospitals—a decision-making analysis

Purpose: To evaluate and compare which factors are relevant to the diagnostic decision-making and imaging workup of intracerebral hemorrhages in large, specialized European centers. Methods: Expert neuroradiologists from ten large, specialized centers (where endovascular stroke treatment is routinely performed) in nine European countries were selected in cooperation with the European Society of Ne

The Swedish COG6-CDG experience and a comprehensive literature review

Here, we present the first two Swedish cases of Conserved Oligomeric Golgi complex subunit 6-congenital disorders of glycosylation (COG6-CDG). Their clinical symptoms include intellectual disability, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), delayed brain myelinization, progressive microcephaly, joint laxity, hyperkeratosis, frequent infections, and enamel hypoplasia. In one family, compoun

Examining the orbital decay targets KELT-9 b, KELT-16 b, and WASP-4 b, and the transit-timing variations of HD 97658 b,

Context. Tidal orbital decay is suspected to occur for hot Jupiters in particular, with the only observationally confirmed case of this being WASP-12 b. By examining this effect, information on the properties of the host star can be obtained using the so-called stellar modified tidal quality factor Q′∗, which describes the efficiency with which the kinetic energy of the planet is dissipated within

Inclusive quarkonium production in pp collisions at √s = 5.02 TeV

This article reports on the inclusive production cross section of several quarkonium states, J / ψ, ψ(2 S) , Υ (1 S) , Υ (2 S) , and Υ (3 S) , measured with the ALICE detector at the LHC, in pp collisions at s=5.02 TeV. The analysis is performed in the dimuon decay channel at forward rapidity (2.5 < y< 4). The integrated cross sections and transverse-momentum (pT) and rapidity (y) differential cro

Public Relations in an Postdisciplinary World : On the Impossibility of Establishing a Constitutive PR Theory within the Tribal Struggles of the Applied Communication Disciplines

This chapter explores public relations’ disciplinary troubles in gaining recognition and explores the academic discipline’s future role in an increasingly postdisciplinary world of higher education. We argue that public relations, like many other applied communication disciplines, did not evolve as an intellectually coherent project but as an institutionally and administratively defined “de facto

Impact of Varicocele Repair on Semen Parameters in Infertile Men: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Purpose: Despite the significant role of varicocele in the pathogenesis of male infertility, the impact of varicocele repair (VR) on conventional semen parameters remains controversial. Only a few systematic reviews and meta-analyses (SRMAs) have evaluated the impact of VR on sperm concentration, total motility, and progressive motility, mostly using a before-after analytic approach. No SRMA to da

A model of reactive settling of activated sludge : Comparison with experimental data

A non-negligible part of the biological reactions in the activated sludge process for treatment of wastewater takes place in secondary settling tanks (SST) that follow biological reactors. It is therefore of interest to develop models of so-called reactive settling that describe the spatial variability of reaction rates caused by the variation of local concentration of biomass due to hindered sett
