In the era of artificial intelligence of things (AIoT), distributed processing on local devices is growing in popularity. This stems from the need to reduce data transfer to and from central servers, with concerns about privacy and latency encouraging the processing of AI applications on edge devices. However, the computational demands of these applications require an increase in the processing ca
We obtain sharp embeddings from the Sobolev space (Formula presented.) into the space (Formula presented.) and determine the extremal functions. This improves on a previous estimate of the sharp constants of these embeddings due to Kalyabin.
The recognized importance of systemic and dynamic perspectives on both AI and innovation management calls for the retheorization to support the AI technology adoption in innovation management. As extant knowledge about a systems approach to realize dynamic roles of both augmentation and automation of AI-human collaboration in innovation management is limited, this study aims to explore how to leve
This chapter explores the evolution and effectiveness of Sweden's climate policy mix for decarbonizing the transport sector—a major contributor to national greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Despite early leadership in climate policy, Sweden faces challenges in aligning policy implementation with ambitious goals, such as a 70 % reduction in transport emissions by 2030. The chapter shows that Sweden's
The purpose of the present paper is to describe and discuss the concept of hunter mode, as introduced by Meidell (2022) in her autobiographical description of anorexia nervosa. Hunter mode is a sought-after state that is reached through self-starvation and that transforms a person’s experiences into a crystal-clearperception and a sense of vitality. Although partly touched upon already by Hilde BrThe purpose of the present paper is to describe and discuss the concept of hunter mode, as introduced by Meidell (2022) in her autobiographical description of anorexia nervosa.

Many species are currently experiencing range shifts in response to changing environmental conditions with potentially serious genetic consequences. Repeated founder events and strong genetic drift are expected to erode genetic variation at the range front, reducing adaptive potential and slowing or even halting the expansion. However, the severity of these consequences for common and highly mobil
Expands the scope of Islamic Studies to include the study of non-Muslim Islam Introduces a new concept (non-Muslim Islam) that challenges commonly held notions about the object of study within Islamic studies Invites critical thinking about how knowledge about Islam is produced in non-Muslim majority societies on both a scholarly and societal level This book empirically substantiates a re-conceptu
The multiexciton density matrix theory is utilized to achieve a microscopic description of exciton-exciton annihilation (EEA). We apply the theory to the 18 bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) molecules of the B850 ring of the light-harvesting complex LH2 of Rhodobacter sphaeroides. The simulation of the EEA process reproduces the intensity-dependent transient absorption kinetic experiments very well, and
This study presents a transformative advancement in water-energy nexus management by developing a hydrostatic pressure wheel (HPW) system that simultaneously optimizes water level regulation and hydropower generation in open-channel irrigation systems (OCISs)—a dual functionality not achieved by existing technologies. While conventional waterwheels focus solely on energy production, our HPW design
Tunnel evacuation is a challenge that requires a well-prepared strategy and relevant technical andorganizational measures to be successful. The article focuses on the relation between knowledge abouthuman behaviour during an evacuation process and how this knowledge is obtained throughinvestigations after fires and through well-planned experiments. Furthermore, theories are introducedthat explain
A risk indexing method for evaluating safety in railway tunnels has been developed. Firstly, ahierarchical structure with one objective, three sub-objectives, four strategies and ten attributes weredefined. Secondly, attributes were elaborated and developed by means of assessable parametersrelated to tunnel safety. Thirdly, the relative importance of the attributes was analysed and assessed bymean
Internal crowdsourcing offers new opportunities for ideas to gain legitimacy in idea development as not only managers but also experts are able to provide feedback to improve and subsequently accept ideas for further realisation. Given this far limited knowledge about how ideas gain legitimacy in idea development, this paper focuses on the influence of feedback, a main source of idea legitimacy in
Purpose: Accurate non-invasive prediction of histopathologic invasiveness and recurrence risk remains a clinical challenge in resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We developed and validated the Edge Proximity Score (EPS), a novel [18F]FDG PET/CT-based spatial imaging feature that quantifies the displacement of SUVmax relative to the tumor centroid and perimeter, to assess tumor aggressiv
Aim: Periodontitis proxy variables enable an expansion of periodontal research. The study aimed to estimate the validity of questionnaire items and registry data in relation to Stage III–IV periodontitis and having 50% bone loss. Methods: Malmö Offspring Dental Study (MODS) participants (995) filled out questionnaires and underwent periodontal and panoramic radiography examinations. The questionna
This chapter presents a theory-driven reading of the opening column of the Temple Scroll in order to explore how the divine voice featured in the narrative may have sparked immersive and interactive processes that enacted temple space in the minds of its immediate audience. I combine critical space theory and theories of virtual reality (VR) applied to narrative in order to hypothesize the audienc
Prurigo nodularis (PN) is a chronic, itchy, inflammatory skin condition that negatively affects quality of life. A study was undertaken to investigate the healthcare utilization, including treatment patterns and direct costs for specialist care, for PN in Sweden. Linkage cohorts were created from national Swedish patient and prescription registers, and the cost-per-patient database of PN adults in
Background and objective: Prostate cancer (PC) is the second most common cancer and a leading cause of death among males. In this systematic review we evaluated cohort studies and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the relationship between dietary patterns and PC risk, progression, mortality, and biomarkers. Methods: A systematic search of MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Central was conducted th
The properties of elementary excited states in the B850 band of the peripheral light-harvesting antenna (LH2) of the photosynthetic purple bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides has been studied at room temperature by means of femtosecond transient absorption experiments combined with computer simulations. Polarized pump-probe kinetics have a fast component of 100 and 65 fs for the anisotropic and isot
