Emissions of greenhouse gases must be significantly reduced in order to limit the risk of severe climatic change. Such reductions will require a long-term transition of the energy system to one in which energy efficiency improvements, electrification, renewable energy, carbon capture and storage and nuclear energy can play important roles. Energy security will be affected by such a transition. Thi
The aim of the NorduGrid project is to build and operate a production Grid infrastructure in Scandinavia and Finland. The innovative middleware solutions allowed setting up a working testbed, which connects a dynamic set of computing resources by providing uniform access to them. The resources range from small test clusters at academic institutions to large farms at several supercomputer centers.
Invited Critical Précis of Mark Schroeder’s “The Ubiquity of State-Given Reasons”
This dissertation gives a picture of the everyday life of women who work as registered nurses (RNs), nursing assistants and nursing auxiliaries in the Swedish public health care system. The study attempts to take a comprehensive, holistic view of their care work. The point of departure for the study is paid care work, professional roles and the social structure around these roles. The empirical ma
Åren kring 1990 kännetecknades av stora förändringar i Sverige och i omvärlden. Mikroprocessorn skapade nya förutsättningar för såväl varu- som tjänsteproduktion och globaliseringen förändrade förhållandena på världsmarknaden i grunden. Dessa förändringar beskrevs väl av den endogena tillväxtteorin som framhöll att kunskap var central för att förklara den ekonomiska utvecklingen. De nya kunskapskr
This thesis presents two new technologies, SIRE technology based biosensors and magneto immunoassays, which can be used for bioanalytical applications. One of the main problems associated with biosensor technology is the instability of the recognition element since it is of biological origin and thus, has a limited lifetime. Conventionally, this problem has been solved by immobilizing the biologic
Damages, caused by moisture and mould, in cold attics have increased in Sweden during the last decades. The main reasons are thicker thermal insulation between the living space and the attic and lack of the heat and ventilation effects from a warm chimney. Cold attics are ventilated to avoid that heat leakage from the living space heats up the outer roof with snow melting and icicles as result. Wi
Abstract in UndeterminedNorm supporting actors and structures for change.Education every day effects almost half of the population in Sweden and Nordic countries. Most research on schools and education is based within education science and there is a lack of other social science perspectives. Sociology of law with its focus on social norms, ethical values and legal norms has something different to
Experimental oscillator strenghts (f-values) for lines in Zr II and Cr II have been determined using branching fractions (BFs) and radiative lifetimes. Experimental log gf-values for 263 spectral lines in Zr II have been derived by combining previously measured lifetimes with new BFs measured on the Lund UV Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS). The oscillator strengths have been used to determine
A condensed account of the history of the production and spread of books, in manuscript and in print, in the Nordic countries during the handpress period. Attention is paid to printing as a factor in the formation of national languages.
