Astrids Lindgren's World in Vimmerby : a "Total Work of Art"?

In an intermedial reading of Astrid Lindgren’s oeuvre, Astrid Lindgren's World is not only analyzed as an ideal case of transmediality or remediation, but also as a modern form of a Total work of art. In doing so, the history of the genre ' total work of art' is discussed by broadening the common aesthetic point-of-view with angles from economy and advertising.

Tales of Tailbiting Codes

Tailbiting codes are error correcting codes and can be used in digital transmission systems. They are obtained by terminating convolutional codes into block codes. This thesis consists of an introduction to convolutional and tailbiting codes, and the Papers A--G that include the main results. In Paper A, the error correcting capability of tailbiting codes is described via the active distances for

Off the Edge of the Map: A Study of Organizational Diversity as Identity Work

“Diversify or die” is a recurring and rather dramatic call for organizations to recruit, retain and manage a demographically diverse workforce, advocated by the business case for diversity, also known as diversity management philosophy. Diversity management places diverse social identities at the heart of organizational success and has gained much attention from management consultants and managers

Studies on Haemproteins of Gram-positive Bacteria - Implications as Antibacterial Drug Targets

Popular Abstract in Swedish I och med upptäckten av antibiotika i första halvan av 1900-talet så kan flera tidigare dödliga infektionssjukdomar botas. Så är längre dock inte alltid fallet, en viss nivå av antibiotikaresistans har upptäckts hos flera stammar av kliniskt viktiga bakterier. Problemet med antibiotikaresistans har till viss del lösts med modifiering av existerande antibiotika, vilket dWith the discovery of antibiotics, several diseases that were previously lethal is today readily cured, or so we thought. Some degree of resistance to one or several antibiotics can be found among many strains of clinical important bacteria. The problem has been somewhat kept at bay for the last few decades by altering already existing antibiotics, and thereby prolonging their usage. It is clear t

Analytical approach to low-density convolutional codes

A statistical analysis of low-density convolutional (LDC) codes is performed. This analysis is based on the consideration of a special statistical ensemble of Markov scramblers and the solution to a system of recurrent equations describing this ensemble. The results of the analysis are lower bounds for the free distance of the codes and upper bounds for the maximum likelihood decoding error probab

Dissociative disorders measures

Dissociation is a complex concept that involves at least two different types of phenomena: the compartmentalization of psychological processes such as memory or identity that should ordinarily be integrated, and alterations of consciousness characterized by experiential detachment from the self and/or the environment. Although there are non-pathological manifestations of dissociation, this chapter

TamaRISC-CS: An Ultra-Low-Power Application-Specific Processor for Compressed Sensing

Compressed sensing (CS) is a universal technique for the compression of sparse signals. CS has been widely used in sensing platforms where portable, autonomous devices have to operate for long periods of time with limited energy resources. Therefore, an ultra-low-power (ULP) CS implementation is vital for these kind of energy-limited systems. Sub-threshold (sub-VT) operation is commonly used for U

A solid introduction to clinical hypnosis. [Review of the book Essential of Clinical Hypnosis]

Reviews the book, Essentials of Clinical Hypnosis: An Evidence-Based Approach by Steven Jay Lynn and Irving Kirsch (see record 2005-13464-000). Steven Jay Lynn and Irving Kirsch are two of the most prolific and best-regarded hypnosis researchers in the world, besides working as clinicians, so they can discuss authoritatively both the empirical support for different hypnotic interventions and provi
