  1. 1. A Measure of Fun : Extending the scope of web usability

    Author : Charlotte Wiberg; Victor Kaptelinin; Kristina Höök; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Informatics; computer and systems science; Usability; evaluation methods; entertainment; information technology; Informatik; data- och systemvetenskap; Informatics; computer and systems science; Informatik; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Currently usability research and practice are facing a challenge. The focus of design concerns is expanding from predominantly functional aspects of IT systems to overall user experience, which has direct implications for the area of usability evaluation. READ MORE

  2. 2. Topics in Potential Theory: Quadrature Domains, Balayage and Harmonic Measure

    Author : Tomas Sjödin; Björn Gustafsson; Stephen Gardiner; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical analysis; Quadrature Domain; Balayage; Harmonic measure; Martin boundary; Matematisk analys; Mathematical analysis; Analys;

    Abstract : In this thesis, which consists of five papers (A,B,C,D,E), we are interested in questions related to quadrature domains. Among the problems studied are the possibility of changing the type of measure in a quadrature identity (from complex to real and from real signed to positive), properties of partial balayage, which in a sense can be used to generate quadrature domains, and mother bodies which are closely related to inversion of partial balayage.

  3. 3. Measures of Freedom of Choice

    Author : Karin Enflo; Erik Carlson; Thomas Anderberg; Martin van Hees; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Freedom of Choice; Measure; Choice Set; Diversity; Cardinality; Evenness; Decision Theory; Metric Space; Practical Philosophy; Praktisk filosofi;

    Abstract : This thesis studies the problem of measuring freedom of choice. It analyzes the concept of freedom of choice, discusses conditions that a measure should satisfy, and introduces a new class of measures that uniquely satisfy ten proposed conditions. READ MORE

  4. 4. Patient participation from the patient's preferences, that's what counts

    Author : Kristina Luhr; Marie Holmefur; Ulrica Nilsson; Åsa Muntlin Athlin; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Patient Participation; Patient Preferences; Measure; Content Analysis; Psychometric Evaluations; Self-Management; Long-Term Conditions;

    Abstract : Patient participation is a core element in legislation in most western countries today. From the patient’s perspective, patient participation includes respect, equality, sharing of knowledge, joint planning, and self-management. However, participation is not always experienced, and the patient’s experiences and preferences are seldom mapped. READ MORE

  5. 5. Boundary Estimates for Solutions to Parabolic Equations

    Author : Olow Sande; Kaj Nyström; Maciej Klimek; Juha Kinnunen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Uniformly parabolic equations; non-linear parabolic equations; linear growth; degenerate parabolic equations; fractional heat equations; complex coefficients; Lipschitz domain; NTA domain; boundary behaviour; boundary Harnack; parabolic measure; Riesz measure; Dirichlet to Neumann map; single layer potentials.; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the boundary behavior of solutions to parabolic equations. It consists of a comprehensive summary and four scientific papers. The equations concerned are different generalizations of the heat equation.Paper I concerns the solutions to non-linear parabolic equations with linear growth. READ MORE
