2. 1. Interruption : Writing a Dissident Architecture

   Author : Sepideh Karami; Hélène Frichot; Katja Grillner; Dorita Hannah; KTH; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Writing architecture; Dissidence; performative writing; experimental writing; artistic research; critical fiction; minor politics; dissident architecture; Interruption; performativity; fragility; pause; cut; fold; Architecture; Arkitektur;

   Abstract : Interruption: Writing a Dissident Architecture makes a contribution to the fields of writing architecture and dissident architecture. Concerned with developing an ethos of criticality from within, it presents a series of performative writing experiments that are situated in politically charged architectural sites, from public spaces, to institutions, to domestic spaces.

4. 2. Solarscape: The power of humanity in designing solar imaginaries, entangled worlds, and critical sustainable futures

   Author : Suzanna Törnroth; Åsa Wikberg-Nilsson; Andrea Luciani; Cindy Kohtala; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; design; architecture; solar energy; sustainability; socio-technical transition; Design; Design;

   Abstract : Solarscape is a thesis on the phenomenology of the Solar – an experiential, relational, and critical approach to how humans and humanity world-with solar energy in its different forms and manifestations. Using solar panels as a central artefact of concern, I explore surrounding human and non-human relationships through situated individual and collaborative design practices: workshops, interviews, (auto)ethnography, to name a few.

5. 3. All Digital Polar Transmitter Design for Software Defined Radio : Architecture and Low Power Circuit Implementation

   Author : Liang Rong; Li-Rong Zheng; Henrik Sjöland; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Switching Power Amplifier; All Digital Polar Transmitter; Lowpass Sigma Delta Modulation; Software Defined Radio; RFID; H-Bridge Architecture; Resonating; Filter Matching Network.; SRA - ICT; SRA - Informations- och kommunikationsteknik;

   Abstract : The evolving wireless communication technology is aiming highdata rate, high mobility, long distance and at the meantime, co-existwith various different standards. This developing trend requires ahighly linear transceiver system and it causes the problem of lowefficiency due to the large crest factor of signals. READ MORE

6. 4. Accurate Leakage-Conscious Architecture-Level Power Estimation for SRAM-based Memory Structures

   Author : Minh Quang Do; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SRAM Power Modeling; Deep Submicron; Power-Performance Estimation Tool; VLSI; Power Estimation; DSP Architecture; CMOS; Cache Power Modeling;

   Abstract : Following Moore’s Law, technology scaling will continue providing integration capacityof billions of transistors for IC industry. As transistors keep shrinking in size, leakagepower dissipation dramatically increases and gradually becomes a first-class design constraint. READ MORE

7. 5. Architectural Flirtations : A Love Storey

   Author : Brady Burroughs; Hélène Frichot; Katja Grillner; Katarina Bonnevier; Naomi Stead; KTH; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; architectural flirtations; architectural pedagogy; queer feminist theory; architectural critique; Camp; design practice research; performativity; experimental writing practices; critical fiction; critical architectural theory; Aldo Rossi; ‘significant otherness’; Arkitektur; Architecture;

   Abstract : Formulated as a feminist project, written as a pulp fiction, Architectural Flirtations: A Love Storey begins with our claim that the architectural discipline is centered around a culture of critique, which is based in what bell hooks calls “a system of imperialist, white supremacist, heterosexist, capitalist, patriarchy,” and that the values instilled by this culture not only begin with, but are reinforced and reproduced by, the education of young architects.Sounds serious.
