Multimodal transportation in the European continent is an integral part of cross border trade and in particular the use of sea and river carriers. The phenomenon of short sea shipping has reached a level of importance of which all European states must take cognisance. One of the policies associated with this issue is the development of the motorways of the sea. While Ukraine is not yet a part of t

Det här är en rapport från ett Vinnovafinansierat projekt där syftet har varit att empiriskt visa på de största utmaningarna för ett ökat tillgängliggörande av öppna data och att visa på möjliga vägar fram. Gemensamt för alla öppna data är att det är maskinläsbara datamängder som kan vidareutnyttjas av vem som helst. Det finns framförallt två aspekter man behöver förhålla sig till när man pratar

[Context and motivation] This research preview presents ongoing work on a free software requirements modeling tool called reqT that is developed in an educational context. [Question/problem] The work aims to engage computer science students in Requirements Engineering (RE) through a tool that captures essential RE concepts in executable code. [Principal ideas] Requirements are modeled using an int

Denna rapport är slutprodukten av ett projektarbete inom ledarskapsprogrammet AKKA III år 2009 och undersöker den paradoxala situation som uppstår då forskargrupper fungerar som verksamhetsbärande enheter samtidigt som deras formella roll i organisationen är oklar. Detta väcker frågeställningar som är relevanta ur ett ledarskapsperspektiv: Vad är egentligen en forskargrupp? Vilka olika typer av fo

The state of the farming industry in Europe has been put under the spotlight in recent years due to a number of different food scares and disease outbreaks. Many new quality assurance schemes have been formed to accompany the existing environmental monitoring schemes, to give concerned consumers some guarantee when buying food that it is of a good quality and the environmental load of production h

Despite a lack of randomized trials, practice guidelines recommend that mild induced hypothermia be considered for comatose survivors of in-hospital cardiac arrest. This study describes the safety, feasibility, and outcomes of mild induced hypothermia treatment following in-hospital cardiac arrest.

BACKGROUND: Patients who survive after suicidal hanging attempts suffer from transient brain ischaemia. Morbidity and mortality is high, and no specific therapy is available. Hypothermia attenuates ischaemic brain damage and has become standard care in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest; therapeutic hypothermia may thus be useful for near-hanging victims as well.OBJECTIVES: To perform a literatu

This paper describes a novel tool for eliciting user requirements early in the design process of mobile applications. The “Mobile Oracle”, as we have called it, is intended to help developers and designers obtain a better understanding of what the user wants at different points in space and time. It is an extension of a lo-fi version of the well-established Wizard of Oz technique, but it also adds

Introduction: In Italy the course to become a general practitioner (GP) lasts 3 years and includes both theoretical and practical study. Different from the theoretical part, until recently the practical activity has not been assessed at all. The Emilia Romagna Regional Health Authority has developed a special program called INFORMEG (Management of Tutoring during the Triennial Specific Training in

Objective:: Our aim was to explore the presence of symptoms, symptom relief, and other key aspects of palliative care during the final week of life among older people residing in nursing homes. Method:: Our study employed data from the Swedish Palliative Care Register on all registered individuals aged 60 and older who had died in nursing homes during the years 2011 and 2012. Variables pertaining

Den här avhandlingen kombinerar vetenskapen om komplexa adaptiva system med ekonomiska geografi för att beskriva och undersöka självorganiserande principer och drag i täta urbana ekonomier, särskilt med avseende på flöden av information och kunskap mellan människor som ger upphov till produktivitetsrelaterade externaliteter. Avhandlingen består av en kappa som presenterar det övergripande ramverkeThis doctoral thesis combines complexity science and economic geography in order to explore bottom-up, self-organizing principles within urban economies, in particular in relation to the flow of information and knowledge between people. The thesis consists of a kappa that covers the general theoretical framework and four papers. The papers cover urban scaling and intra-urban scaling analysis, loca

The Wilms' tumor gene 1 (WT1) is recurrently mutated in acute myeloid leukemia. Mutations and high expression of WT1 associate with a poor prognosis. In mice, WT1 cooperates with the RUNX1/RUNX1T1 (AML1/ETO) fusion gene in the induction of acute leukemia, further emphasizing a role for WT1 in leukemia development. Molecular mechanisms for WT1 are, however, incompletely understood. Here, we identif

In the autumn of 2011, the course “The City: Boundary Transgressions and Visual Expressions” was given for the first time. Formally placed at the Division of Art History and Visual Studies, the course is a collaboration with the Division of Social Anthropology and is directed towards students from a range of disciplines within the fields of the humanities and social sciences. The course includes
