  2. 16. Strategies in the rat gambling task : Individual differences in decision-making and associations to behavior, neurobiology and human strategies

    Author : Nikita Tjernström; Erika Roman; Barry Everitt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Behavior; copulatory test; decision-making; ethanol; gambling disorder; impulsivity; individual differences; Iowa gambling task; MALDI-MSI; multivariate concentric square field; neurobiology; novel cage; opioid antagonist; rat gambling task; resting-state fMRI; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Abstract : Gambling disorder (GD) is a behavioral addiction characterized by persistent and recurrent gambling behavior that disrupts personal, social or professional life. Studies have revealed that GD shares many features with alcohol and substance use disorders, but little is known about potential unique features in GD and to what extent characteristics are shared.

  4. 17. Mapping Concurrent Applications to Multiprocessor Systems with Multithreaded Processors and Network on Chip-Based Interconnections

    Author : Ruxandra Pop; Petru Eles; Shashi Kumar; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Network on Chip; Multiprocessor Embedded Systems; Task Mapping; Task Scheduling; Multithreading; Simultaneous Multithreading; Response Time Estimation; Genetic Algorithms; List Scheduling; Soft Deadline; Task Graphs; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Network on Chip (NoC) architectures provide scalable platforms for designing Systems on Chip (SoC) with large number of cores. Developing products and applications using an NoC architecture offers many challenges and opportunities. A tool which can map an application or a set of applications to a given NoC architecture will be essential. READ MORE

  5. 18. Altered movement patterns and deviating muscular activity in individuals with anterior cruciate ligament injury

    Author : Anna Trulsson; Människan i rörelse: hälsa och rehabilitering; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Movement pattern; Physiotherapy; Motor control; Sensorimotor control; Neuromuscular control; Anterior cruciate ligament; Muscular activity; Motor skills; Single leg squat; Electromyography EMG ; Postural orientation; Assessment; Task performance; Reproducibility of findings; Performance test; Hop test; knee; dynamic joint stability;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis was to increase the understanding of altered movement patterns in individuals with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in order to improve ACL rehabilitation, and to develop an observational instrument termed Test for Substitution Patterns (TSP) for standardized, quantifiable scoring of altered movement patterns in legs and trunk. In all, 142 participants, 93 with ACL-rupture (37 women) and 49 uninjured participants were investigated. READ MORE

  6. 19. Effective cooperative scheduling of task-parallel applications on multiprogrammed parallel architectures

    Author : Georgios Varisteas; Mats Brorsson; Avi Mendelson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; multicore; parallel; scheduler; workload; runtime; task; adaptive; resource management; load balancing; work-stealing; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : Emerging architecture designs include tens of processing cores on a single chip die; it is believed that the number of cores will reach the hundreds in not so many years from now. However, most common parallel workloads cannot fully utilize such systems. READ MORE

  7. 20. Cooperative user- and system-level scheduling of task-centric parallel programs

    Author : Georgios Varisteas; Mats Brorsson; Karl-Filip Faxén; Timothy Roscoe; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; parallel; workload; runtime; task; adaptive; resource management; load balancing; work-stealing; SRA - ICT; SRA - Informations- och kommunikationsteknik;

    Abstract : Emerging architecture designs include tens of processing cores on a single chip die; it is believed that the number of cores will reach the hundreds in not so many years from now. However, most common workloads cannot expose fluctuating parallelism, insufficient to utilize such systems. READ MORE
