Advanced features of modern mobile devices have made it possible to develop and use maps and map based applications for navigation purposes. Since most mobile map applications nowadays are developed for motor vehicles, there is a demand for portable pedestrian navigation applications. In this thesis the Android mobile map application with standard navigation tools for pedestrian navigation was dev

Arbetet syftade till att med mig själv som utgångspunkt undersöka metoder för att känna sig nöjd som musiker med sin prestation under och efter ett konsertframträdande. Detta har undersökts genom intervjuer med musiker, kontinuerligt förande av loggbok samt litteraturstudier. Målet var att jag skulle kunna använda den insamlade kunskapen för att känna mig nöjd och bekväm med mitt spel under min exThe purpose of the work was to investigate methods to achieve satisfaction with one’s own performance during and after a concert, using my own practice as point of departure. This has been investigated through interviews with musicians, continuous keeping of a logbook and literature studies. The goal was to be able to use the collected information to feel satisfied with my playing during my gradua

Vehicle to everything (V2x) communication is one of the most researched topics today. The main goal behind this new emerging technology is road safety along with traffic and energy efficiency. Vehicular communications can further be sub-divided into certain types. One such type is vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communication, which is the focus of this thesis. V2V is either Wireless Local Area Network (

Objective: Enhancing the reliability of myoelectric controllers that decode motor intent is a pressing challenge in the field of bionic prosthetics. State-of-the-art research has mostly focused on Supervised Learning (SL) techniques to tackle this problem. However, obtaining high-quality labeled data that accurately represents muscle activity during daily usage remains difficult. We investigate th

In this paper, we provide a new generalized construction method for highly nonlinear t-resilient functions, F: F-2(n) --> F-2(m). The construction is based on the use of linear error-correcting codes together with highly nonlinear multiple output functions. Given a linear [u, m, t + 1] code we show that it is possible to construct n-variable, m-output, t-resilient functions with very high nonlinea

A summary of recent progress in Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) at the two-loop level is given. A short introduction to ChPT is included, along with an explanation of the usefulness of developing ChPT for partially quenched QCD. Further, our recent work in partially quenched ChPT is reviewed, and a few comments are given on older work in mesonic ChPT at the two-loop level. In particular, we quot

Bexarotene, a retinoid X receptor (RXR) agonist, is being tested as a potential disease modifying treatment for neurodegenerative conditions. To limit the peripheral exposure of bexarotene and release it only in the affected areas of the brain, we designed a prodrug strategy based on the enzyme NAD(P)H/quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1) that is elevated in neurodegenerative diseases. A series of indole

Uninformed buyers' demand for statistical screening between privately informed sellers is studied in a fixed price market. A single buyer will screen more extensively than would two or more buyers, since in the latter case buyers realize that sellers will be attracted to buyers with the most favorable screening policy (i.e., not to screen at all). This result is robust to some but not all types of

Using shaped laser pulses, we increase the yield of ultrafast electron injection from the sensitizer to TiO2 nanocrystals in the core part of a dye-sensitized solar cell. The temporal structure of the optimized excitation pulse is in clear correlation with nuclear oscillations in the impulsively excited dye molecule. From DFT structure optimization and normal mode analyses we identified the modes

In this chapter, the authors highlight that the challenges related to managing modern projects are that the management problems have changed since traditional project management methods were developed. This calls for new project management methods, adapted to situations of rapid technological change and flexibility. The authors identify and highlight the limitations of both traditional and agile m
