  1. 16. Resonator sensor technique for medical use : an intraocular pressure measurement system

    Author : Anders Eklund; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sensor; Vibration; Hardness; Prostate; intraocular pressure; resonator; eye; applanation; glaucoma;

    Abstract : In the work of this doctoral dissertation a new resonator sensor technique, first presented in 1989, has been further developed and evaluated with focus on technical characteristics and applications within the medical field. In a first part a catheter-type tactile sensor using the resonator sensor technique was evaluated in a silicone model and applied to human prostate in vitro. READ MORE

  3. 18. An Informed System Development Approach to Tropical Cyclone Track and Intensity Forecasting

    Author : Chandan Roy; Rita Kovordanyi; Henrik Eriksson; Mattias Villani; Frank C. Lin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biologically based artificial neural networks; bi-directionally connected networks; temporal sequence learning; accurate tropical cyclone forecasting; informative warning message; ;

    Abstract : Introduction: Tropical Cyclones (TCs) inflict considerable damage to life and property every year. A major problem is that residents often hesitate to follow evacuation orders when the early warning messages are perceived as inaccurate or uninformative. READ MORE

  4. 19. Evaluating vehicle stability support systems by measuring, analyzing, and modeling driver behavior

    Author : Gustav M Markkula; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; driver behavior; driver models; system evaluation; heavy trucks; driving simulators; active safety; electronic stability control;

    Abstract : This thesis presents an investigation of near-accident behavior of truck drivers, with and without support from an electronic stability control (ESC) system. A critical scenario, involving both collision avoidance and vehicle stabilization on a low-friction surface, was studied in a driving simulator. READ MORE

  5. 20. Preservation of Extra-Functional Properties in Embedded Systems Development

    Author : Mehrdad Saadatmand; Mikael Sjödin; Antonio Cicchetti; Vittorio Cortellessa; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Software Engineering; Embedded Systems; Non-Functional Requirements; Extra-Functional Properties; Model-Driven Development; Trade-off analysis; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

    Abstract : The interaction of embedded systems with their environments and their resource limitations make it important to take into account properties such as timing, security, and resource consumption in designing such systems. These so-called Extra-Functional Properties (EFPs) capture and describe the quality and characteristics of a system, and they need to be taken into account from early phases of development and throughout the system's lifecycle.
