  2. 1. The HIV-1 epidemic in Ethiopia – transmission patterns, antiretroviral drug resistance and treatment outcomes

    Author : Dawit Assefa; Malmö Klinisk virologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HIV-1; HIV drug resistance HIVDR ; Phylodynamics; Phylogenetic; Molecular epidemology; transmitted HIVDR; acquired HIVDR; pre-treatment HIVDR; Integrase strand transfer inhibitors INSTI ; Ethiopia; antiretroviral therapy;

    Abstract : A comprehensive understanding of local HIV epidemiology is essential for monitoring transmission, designing, implementing, and evaluating HIV intervention strategies. In paper I, we used a total of 1276 HIV-1 subtype C pol sequences and employed state-of-art phylogenetic and phylodynamic tools to describe the molecular epidemiology of HIV in Ethiopia. READ MORE

  4. 2. Improving the performance of distributed multi-agent based simulation

    Author : Dawit Mengistu; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; agent based simulation; MABS; distributed systems; application performance;

    Abstract : This research investigates approaches to improve the performance of multi-agent based simulation (MABS) applications executed in distributed computing environments. MABS is a type of micro-level simulation used to study dynamic systems consisting of interacting entities, and in some cases, the number of the simulated entities can be very large. READ MORE

  5. 3. Multi-Agent Based Simulations in the Grid Environment

    Author : Dawit Mengistu; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Grid computing; Multi-agent Based Simulation; Performance Modeling; Performance Prediction;

    Abstract : The computational Grid has become an important infrastructure as an execution environment for scientific applications that require large amount of computing resources. Applications which would otherwise be unmanageable or take a prohibitively longer execution time under previous computing paradigms can now be executed efficiently on the Grid within a reasonable time.

  6. 4. Leishmania and HIV-1 interaction : immunopathogenic mechanisms

    Author : Dawit Wolday; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Both Leishmania and HIV can infect and multiply in macrophages, and both can dysregulate the T-helper (Th) immune system. This thesis was, therefore, undertaken to unravel some of the underlying immunopathogenic mechanisms of the interaction of the two pathogens. READ MORE
