The demands on library services are quickly changing in a continually updating digital age. This increases the importance of a good understanding of the needs and demands of the users. In order to sample and follow the change in user needs library organisations analyse their efforts using a series of different methods. In a recent survey distributed to all 301 European LIBER university libraries,
A variety of pathogenic bacteria can infect humans and the increase in bacteria resistant to common antibiotics is a large threat to human health worldwide. This work presents a method, based on optical DNA mapping (ODM) in nanofluidic channels, that can detect the type of bacterial present in a sample by matching the obtained maps of large DNA molecules to a database of fully assembled bacterial
Barriers to decision quality were reported by 473 administrative officers and investigators in three Swedish national public authorities: the Tax Agency, Social Insurance Agency, and Police Authority. In line with previous research, we assumed that limited possibilities to plan one’s work would hinder decision quality. Both disruption of workflow and high workload were reported to inhibit work pla

Through interviews with trans* young peopleand young adults, this study analyzes schools and adults’ abilities and knowledges to understand and meet the needs of trans* students and to address cisnormative structures in school. The participants’ narratives give a richand complex image of what it can mean
The environmental footprint of IT products are significant and, in spite of manufacturing and product design improvements, growing consumption of electronics results in increasing absolute environmental impact. Computers have short technological lifespan and a lot of the in-build performance, although necessary, remains idling for most of the time. Today, most of computers used in non-residential
Given current glucose value, amount and timing of insulin injections and food intake, is it possible to predict future blood glucose levels with a prediction error of ±20 mg/dL? In the current study an attempt is made to empirically model the glucose-insulin dynamic interplay and to provide model-based short-term predictors suitable for the purpose.
Abstract in UndeterminedSometimes energy security is used as an advocacy for renewable energy systems. Although renewable energy systems can surely have such characteristics they will not per se solve all types of security problems, and new problems will most certainly arise. In this paper, energy security aspects of renewable energy systems are analysed taking the starting point in a broad typolo
Att avlägsna en luftförorening från en bostad kan ske på olika sätt, dels genom ventilationen dels genom att vissa föroreningar avlägsnas genom någon typ av filtrering av luften. Filtrering av luften används t.ex. vid olika typer av allergiska problem för att avlägsna icke önskvärda partiklar, t.ex. pollen. Filtrering har också föreslagits som en möjlig metod att minska stråldosen i samband med ra
