From ad-man to digital manager. How strategic communication became a professional project

Sexual Health among Young Somali Women in Sweden: Living with Conflicting Culturally Determined Sexual Ideologies

Young Somali women in Sweden are affected by two conflicting ideologies on sexuality: on the one hand, the traditional values demanding chastity and modesty in women and, on the other hand, the public sexual ideology in Sweden, emphasising sexual liberty and the dismissal of sexual taboos. In addition, they have to deal with national campaigns condemning “female genital mutilation”. Some of these

Optimal decomposition of large-neighborhood CNN templates

From a practical point of view, template decomposition is an important issue since image processing operations can be non−local while the cells in physical CNN realizations often only communicate with cells in their direct neighborhood. In this paper the existing relation between Mathematical Morphology and CNNs is used to derive an optimal template decomposition strategy for a specific class of t

Theory and Applications of Self-Tuning Regulators

This paper reviews work on self-tuning regulators. The regulator algorithms, their theory and industrial applications are reviewed. The paper is expository—the major ideas are covered but detailed analysis is given elsewhere.

Methodological reflections on gesture analysis in SLA and bilingualism research

Gestures, i.e. the symbolic movements that speakers perform while they speak, form a closely interconnected system with speech, where gestures serve both addressee-directed (‘communicative’) and speaker-directed (‘internal’) functions.

Features of request strategies in Chinese

As Blum-Kulka, House & Kasper 1989:1 point out, speech acts are “one of the most compelling notions in the study of language use”. The Cross-Cultural Speech Act Realisation Project (CCSARP; Blum-Kulka & Olshtain 1984) analyses two speech acts: requests and apologies across a range of languages and cultures to investigate whether there are universal pragmatic principles in speech act realis
