    Abstract : This dissertation is a study of Fyodor Dostoevsky’s Notes from the House of the Dead (1860–1862), a semi-documentary rendition of life in a Siberian prison of the 1850s. The work is read against the background of the pivotal historical event coinciding with its writing and publication: the peasant emancipation of 1861. READ MORE

  4. 12. Dead-Time Compensation and Performance Monitoring in Process Control

    Author : Ari Ingimundarson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; robotteknik; Automatiska system; reglerteknik; Automation; robotics; control engineering;

    Abstract : The thesis contains two parts, dead-time compensation and performance monitoring. The first part on dead-time compensation is about robust tuning procedures for dead-time compensating controllers (DTC). Both stable and integrating processes are considered. READ MORE

    Author : Jennie Sandström; Bengt-Gunnar Jonsson; Mattias Edman; Mikael Ohlson; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Coarse woody debris; Dead wood; Dendrochronology; Fire history; Forest conservation; Forest structure; Log; Meta-analysis; Pine heath forest; Prescribed burning; Saproxylic fungi; Saproxylic beetles; Snag; Wood-inhabiting fungi; Aktiv skötselmetod; Bevarandebiologi; Brandhistorik; Dendrokronologi; Död ved; Hällmarkstallskog; Lågproduktiv skog; Meta-analys; Naturvård; Naturvårdsbrand; Skogsstruktur; Solbelyst död ved; Stock; Torraka; Vedlevande svamp; Vedlevande insekter; Åldersstruktur;

    Abstract : In today´s intensively managed landscape, very few forests with old-growth characteristics and little human impact exist. One of the rare exceptions is pine forests on rocky soils, a forest type which has probably escaped extensive human use because of its low productivity. READ MORE

  6. 14. Towards Runtime-Assisted Cache Management for Task-Parallel Programs

    Author : Madhavan Manivannan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; task parallelism; cache hierarchy; runtime system; dead blocks; multi-core architecture; sharing patterns;

    Abstract : Architects have adopted the shared memory model that implicitly manages cache coherence and cache capacity in hardware, mainly to aid programmability of multi-core architectures. The hardware mechanisms are however prone to inefficiencies because they are not tailored to the behavior of individual parallel applications. READ MORE

  7. 15. Condition Monitoring of Control Loops

    Author : Alexander Horch; KTH; []
    Keywords : control performance; performance index; detection; dead-time; diagnosis; static friction; disturbances;

    Abstract : The main concern of this work is the development of methodsfor automatic condition monitoring of control loops withapplication to the process industry. By condition monitoringboth detection and diagnosis of malfunctioning control loops isunderstood, using normal operating data and a minimum amount ofprocess knowledge. READ MORE
