  1. 1. Dangerous Liaisons : Why Ex-Combatants Return to Violence. Cases from the Republic of Congo and Sierra Leone

    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; ex-combatants; reintegration; demobilization; DDR; conflict resolution; peacebuilding; civil wars; Republic of Congo; Sierra Leone; Peace and conflict research; Freds- och konfliktforskning;

    Abstract : After disarming and demobilizing, why do some ex-combatants re-engage in organized vio-lence, while others do not? Even though former fighters have been identified as a major source of insecurity in post-civil war societies due to their military know-how, there have been few efforts to systematically examine this puzzle. This study fills this research gap by comparing the presence or absence of organized violence in different ex-combatant communi-ties – all the former fighters that used to belong to the same armed faction and who share a common, horizontal identity based on shared war-and peacetime experiences.

  2. 2. In-Line Bit Interleaved Serially Concatenated Coded Modulation

    Author : ANDERS NILSSON; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; serially concatenated codes; the AWGN channel.; Coded modulation; iterative decoding; in-line bit interleaving; turbo codes;

    Abstract : A communication system using in-line bit interleaved serially concatenated trellis coded modulation (SCTCM) over the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel is investigated. In-line bit interleaving refers to an interleaving method for which the random bit interleaver is divided into several independent constituent bit interleavers. READ MORE
