  2. 7. Towards Higher Code Quality in Scientific Computing

    Author : Malin Källén; Tobias Wrigstad; Serge Demeyer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : In scientific computing and data science, computer programs employing mathematical and statistical models are used for obtaining knowledge in different application domains. The results of these programs form the basis of among other things scientific papers and important desicions that may e.g. affect people's health. READ MORE

  3. 8. Situation awareness in pervasive computing systems : reasoning, verification, prediction

    Author : Andrey Boytsov; Christian Becker; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; situation awareness; context awareness; pervasive computing; ubiquitous computing; context prediction; Pervasive Mobile Computing; Distribuerade datorsystem;

    Abstract : The paradigm of pervasive computing aims to integrate the computing technologies in a graceful and transparent manner, and make computing solutions available anywhere and at any time. Different aspects of pervasive computing, like smart homes, smart offices, social networks, micromarketing applications, PDAs are becoming a part of everyday life. READ MORE

  4. 9. Numerical Algorithms for Mapping of Multiple Quantitative Trait Loci in Experimental Populations

    Author : Kajsa Ljungberg; Sverker Holmgren; Örjan Carlborg; Margot Gerritsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Scientific computing; Beräkningsvetenskap; Scientific Computing;

    Abstract : Most traits of medical or economic importance are quantitative, i.e. they can be measured on a continuous scale. Strong biological evidence indicates that quantitative traits are governed by a complex interplay between the environment and multiple quantitative trait loci, QTL, in the genome. READ MORE

  5. 10. Artefactual Intelligence: The Development and Use of Cognitively Congenial Artefacts

    Author : David de Léon; Kognitionsvetenskap; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; pervasive computing; affective computing; persuasive computing; Psychology; Psykologi; computer-mediated extrospection; precommitment; self-control; situated cognition; distributed motivation; cognitive ethnography; distributed cognition; cognitive biographies; redesign; task–artefact cycle; artefact evolution; artefact design; task structure; cognitive task; cognitive congeniality; artefactual intelligence; cognitive artefacts; task environment; tools; Cognition; artefacts; ubiquitous computing;

    Abstract : How can tools help structure tasks to make them cognitively easier to perform? How do artefacts, and our strategies for using them, develop over time in cognitively beneficial ways? These are two of the main questions that are explored in the five papers collected in this thesis. The first paper details an ethnographic study conducted on people cooking in their homes. READ MORE
