  2. 1. Online music distribution and the unpredictability of software logistics

    Author : Maria Eriksson; Pelle Snickars; Patrick Vonderau; Jörgen Skågeby; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; music distribution; logistics; software studies; unpredictability; digital methods; media and communication studies; medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap;

    Abstract : This compilation dissertation examines the role of software in online music distribution and critically scrutinizes the increased influence of digital technologies in everyday life. In particular, it explores how software coordinates and arranges things, people, and information surrounding music and thereby exerts a logistical power that makes music calculable and governable online.

  4. 2. Metadata Management in Multi-Grids and Multi-Clouds

    Author : Daniel Espling; Erik Elmroth; Erwin Laure; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; grid computing; cloud computing; accounting; billing; metadata; monitoring; structure; fairshare; scheduling; federated; Computer Science; datalogi;

    Abstract : Grid computing and cloud computing are two related paradigms used to access and use vast amounts of computational resources. The resources are often owned and managed by a third party, relieving the users from the costs and burdens of acquiring and managing a considerably large infrastructure themselves. READ MORE

  5. 3. An Eye for an I : Focus on integration in WIL

    Author : Lennarth Bernhardsson; Martin Gellerstedt; Lars Svensson; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Work-Integrated Learning; Work-Integrated Education; Workplace learning; Work-based learning; Lärande; Progression; Work Integrated Learning; Arbetsintegrerat lärande;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis describes the development and change of forms within a course with a focus on Work-Integrated Learning (WIL). For several years I have been responsible for a course and at the same time author of the syllabus for the course and seen how weak the integration is, and how it is perceived by the students, between theoretical knowledge and the practical work during an internship period.

  6. 4. Energy Modelling and Fairness for Efficient Mobile Communication

    Author : Ekhiotz Jon Vergara Alonso; Simin Nadjm-Tehrani; Mikael Asplund; Andrew Rice; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy consumption; mobile communication; mobile applications; energy accounting; energy-efficient software; cooperative game theory;

    Abstract : Energy consumption and its management have been clearly identified as a challenge in computing and communication system design, where energy economy is obviously of paramount importance for battery powered devices. This thesis addresses the energy efficiency of mobile communication at the user end in the context of cellular networks. READ MORE

  7. 5. Improved Material Models for High Strength Steel

    Author : Rikard Larsson; Larsgunnar Nilsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Plastic anisotropy; non-linear strain paths; mixed isotropic-kinematic hardening; isotropic-distortional hardening; dynamic strain ageing; static strain ageing; marten- sitic transformation;

    Abstract : The mechanical behaviour of the three advanced high strength steel grades, Docol 600DP, Docol 1200M and HyTens 1000, has been experimentally investigated under various types of deformation, and material models have been developed, which account for the experimentally observed behaviour.Two extensive experimental programmes have been conducted in this work.
