Stream ciphers like Snow 2.0 are very promising techniques for encryption in trusted hardware, but demand specialized IP cores to enhance conventional architectures. The paper describes the design of such a core that can be adapted to the system needs according to a ratio of throughput and effective slice usage of 3.2 to 3.5. The footprint is comparable with a commercial floating-point unit.

Phosphor thermometry is applied for the first time in a large-bore two-stroke diesel engine. The work proves the practicality of phosphor thermometry in large-bore engines. The experiments were conducted on the MAN 4T50ME-X marine research engine equipped with an optical cylinder head. By employing a thin surface coating of CdWO4 phosphor, cycle resolved temperature measurements of the cylinder wa

Ethanol can be produced from lignocellulose by first hydrolysing the material to sugars, and then fermenting the hydrolysate with the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Hydrolysis using dilute sulphuric acid has advantages over other methods, however, compounds which inhibit fermentation are generated during this kind of hydrolysis. The inhibitory effect of aliphatic acids, furans, and phenolic compo

Mångkulturalism är en svårgripbar term som figurerar som etikett på idéer som sinsemellan kan vara ganska olika. Jag ska försöka bringa lite ordning i diskussionen om mångkulturalism, specifikt i relation till mänskliga rättigheter, genom att göra en – alls inte uttömmande – inventering av hur begreppet mångkulturalism används i debatten, framför allt inom politisk teori. Personer som alla försvar

The Aids pandemic and structural adjustment policies (SAP) have had effects on lower income households in Zimbabwe which have been devastating and people have been required to adapt their livelihood strategies. Small towns meahnwhile are growing rapidly in Zimbabwe and mobility towards these towns may be connected with the changes being forged by SAP on the economic landscape. This study seeks to

My paper has a two-folded aim. First it aims at proposing ethnography as a useful method within queer studies discussing the implications and usefulness of “queer ethnography”. Secondly it aims at exploring feminist ethnography with special focus on the study of gender and sexuality expressed in/through/as the practice of drag kinging in Sweden. I would like to suggest that a queer feminist ethno

A resultant-type identity for univariate polynomials is proved and applied to characterization of SAGBI bases of subalgebras, generated by two polynomials. Besides a new condition for polynomials f(x) and g(x) to form a SAGBI basis, expressed in terms of field extensions is derived.

This study examines how States use legal arguments in cases of armed intervention and how this usage can influence the development of international law. The objective is to contribute to the understanding of the law on armed intervention by conducting a study of how States actually use legal arguments to justify or condemn armed interventions in actual cases. By assessing empirical material within

The aim of this thesis was to study competitive adsorption of milk proteins during spray-drying. For this purpose, a new surface sensitive method was developed which measures the quantitative amount of specific proteins at the powder surface. The new method is based on steady-state fluorescence measurement of pyrene labelled proteins with oxygen gas phase quenching at the powder surface. The milk

Popular Abstract in Swedish Transplantation av dopaminceller från mänskliga foster kan förbättra funktionen hos patienter med Parkinsons sjukdom (Lindvall 1997, Björklund 2000a). Man har kunnat visa att transplantaten har återställt dopaminproduktionen i striatum till normala nivåer i flera fall, och till 70-80% av normalt i majoriteten av de patienter som transplanterats i Lund. Transplantaten haTransplantation of embryonic human neural tissue can restore function in patients with Parkinson’s disease, but there is a severe shortage of donor tissue which limits the applicability of the technique. Embryonic neural tissue from other species, xenogeneic tissue, would provide a readily accessible donor tissue with the potential to help patients if the immunological reactions in the host could
