The paper presents a feedback scheduling strategy for multiple control tasks that uses feedback from the plant states to distribute the computing resources optimally among the tasks. Linear-quadratic controllers are analyzed, and expressions relating the expected cost to the sampling period and the plant state are derived and used for on-line sample-rate adjustments. In the case of minimum-varianc

In today’s business environment the use of e-business is gradually becoming more common. This paper sets out to highlight the implications for logistical operations and possible future developments in a vendor-customer relationship (B2B environment) when e-business is introduced. The paper implies that use of an e-business solution does not necessarily mean any changes in the physical distribution

The top layer of a road is made up of a mixture of stones and bitumen and the durability is dependent on how well the bitumen adheres to the stones. The standard way of determining the bitumen coverage in the industry is the so called rolling bottle method, where a number of stones cov- ered with bitumen are put in a rolling bottle and the bitu- men coverage is estimated after different times. Thi

We describe the policy consensus in the OECD publication Economic Surveys, by constructing a database that contains both quotations and a quantification of the perceived reform need for 23 OECD countries around 1985, 1995 and 2005. Using the database, we examine whether or not the policy recommendations given by the OECD require welfare state cutbacks. We also examine how reform need correlates wi

Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) produced by the lactic acid bacteria (LAB) Lactococcus lactis and Streptococcus thermophilus are important for the rheological behaviour and texture of a variety of fermented food products. Furthermore, EPSs from food-grade LAB have potential as food additives and functional food ingredients with both health and economic benefits. However, the production lev

It is well known that nature offers an abundance of materials and processes that can be adapted in low-tech fashion, to fabricate systems capable of removing pollutants from wastewater. During the last decade, extensive basic and engineering research on such natural treatment systems have led to improvement of the quality of discharged wastewaters. However, the mechanisms of natural treatment and

This paper presents a characterization method for millimeter wave (mmWave) phased array antennas in the mobile terminal for 5G communication. Arrays of different antenna designs, operating at 28 GHz, are evaluated according to novel characterization methods in this context - the total scan pattern of the phased array and its respective coverage efficiency. The results show the relevance of evaluat

Varje dag överlåts företag och företagsgrupper omstruktureras. Ofta rör det sig om stora värden och det är inte ovanligt att en företagsöverlåtelse påverkar de inblandade parterna under lång tid. Skatt är ofta den väsentligaste transaktionskostnaden. Av den anledningen är det mycket viktigt att kunna förutse de skattekonsekvenser som uppkommer i och med överlåtelsen. Beskattning av aktiebolag vi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Många framsteg har gjorts inom bioteknik de senaste decennierna. Idag kan vissa sjukdomar fastställas redan på DNA-nivå och viktiga läkemedel samt tvättmedelskomponenter tillverkas industriellt med hjälp av gentekniska tekniker. Kostnaden för de gentekniska produkterna ligger till stor del i själva uppreningsprocessen. Forskningen i denna avhandling har gjorts med avsikThis thesis describes the possibility of using hydrophobic peptide tags as tools for bioseparation and for the investigation of recombinant proteins. The hydrophobicity of a protein can easily be changed by minor modifications, such as fusions of tyrosine-containing peptides. The fusion tags may also increase both stability and expression of the fusion protein. Furthermore, a protein library with

Abstract in UndeterminedDifferential in-gel electrophoresis (DIGE) experiments allow three protein samples to be run per gel. The three samples are labeled with the spectrally resolvable fluorescent dyes, Cy2, Cy3, and Cy5, respectively. Here, we show that protein-specific dye effects exist, and we present a linear mixed model for analysis of DIGE data which takes dye effects into account. A Java

Empirical findings indicate a need of support for environmental management within the manufacturing industry for improving the environmental performance of their production systems. This paper elaborates on a generic, three step visualization tool, here called Green Performance Map (GPM). The GPM adds to the framework of ISO 14001, providing the user with a systematic procedure to visualize enviro
