”Supplemental Instruction” (SI) introducerades vid Lunds Tekniska Högskola (LTH) 1994. SI-verksamheten utvecklades vid Kansas Universitet i USA som ett kostnadseffektivt sätt att komma till rätta med den dåliga studentgenomströmningen vid vissa utbildningar på universitet/högskolor. SI är som framgår av det engelska namnet ett komplement till den ordinarie undervisningen. Tanken med SI är att inlä

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna studie behandlar hur Ukraina har inkorporerat och brukat förintelsen och den ukrainska hungersnöden 1932-1933, den så kallade terrorhungersnöden, i den nya nationella historien och historiekulturen. Undersökningen tar sin utgångspunkt i det ökade intresset för förintelsen under senare år. Olika institutioner och aktörer har framfört utrotningen av Europas judar unThis study deals with the problem of how Ukraine has incorporated and made use of the Holocaust and the 1932?1933 famine (Holodomor) in its new national history and historical culture. The investigation departs from the increased interest in and attention devoted to the Holocaust in recent years. Various institutions and actors have brought the mass murder of Europe's Jews forward as an important

This rapport consists of a seminar paper from a 2012 CERTEC seminar with Per Linde from MEDEA/MU as invited opponent. It presents an exploration into program-based constructive de-sign research elaborating on the dynamics between a programme at large and its design experiments. As such it suggests ways for a programme to connect designerly actions suitable for the field with a take on the world; i

As a social change, the sudden collapse of communism1 should well be remembered as one of the most formative events of the 20th century. As a political transformation, it caused an initial rush of euphoria within the 'victorious' West and a wave of hope followed by disillusionment for hundreds of millions in the newly ‘democratic’ sphere. As an economic transformation, its effects were even more t

Modern medical implants are of increasing complexity and with that, the need for fast and flexible communication with them grows. A wireless system is preferable and an inductive link is the most commonly used. But it has the drawback of a very short range, essentially limited to having the external transceiver touching the patient. The Medical Implant Communication System, MICS, is a standard aim

The principles of distributed object oriented programming offer great possibilities for flexible architectures in multiple fields. In telecommunications, an architecture called Telecommunication Information Networking Architecture (TINA) has been developed using these very principles. It allows telecommunication services to be implemented using software objects that in turn can be executed in a lo

PCR is widely employed as a rapid, sensitive and specific molecular diagnostic technique in clinical diagnosis, environmental investigations and for monitoring biotechnical processes. However, the full potential of diagnostic PCR is limited, in part, by the presence of PCR-inhibitory substances in biological samples. Among the mechanisms by which these inhibitors may act are through interfering wi

Flera studier har visat att efterfrågan på äldrevård kommer att öka i takt med att Sveriges befolkning blir allt äldre. Samtidigt pekar prognoser mot ett minskat antal framtida skattebetalare. Vilka finansiella svårigheter detta ger kommunerna beror på den ekonomiska utvecklingen, men även på hälsoutvecklingen bland framtidens äldre, sjukvårdens utveckling, vilka krav de äldre kommer att ställa på

Safety culture may be seen as the oil necessary for an efficient safety management system. During the work in HILAS SMS task force some weaknesses in the use of safety culture in practice were identified. A work stream was initiated to identify further weaknesses and suggest remedies for them. The objective of this paper is to discuss some of the weaknesses and propose mitigations. A major suggest
