    Author : Zlatana Knezevic; Maria Eriksson; Els-Marie Anbäcken; Mia Heikkilä; Charlotte Williams; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; biowelfare; child protection; child welfare; critical childhood studies; critical social work; embodiment; epistemic injustice; epistemology; feminist theory; intersectionality; justice subjectivity; moral economy; moral subjectivity; participation; postcolonial theory; poststructural social work; social justice; violence; socialt arbete; Social Work;

    Abstract : The current thesis discusses how tools for analysing power are developed predominately for adults, and thus remain underdeveloped in terms of understanding injustices related to age, ethnicity/race and gender in childhoods. The overall ambition of this dissertation is to inscribe a discourse of intersecting social injustices as relevant for childhoods and child welfare, and by interlinking postcolonial, feminist, and critical childhood studies.

  5. 23. Hierarchical Methods for Self-Monitoring Systems : Theory and Application

    Author : Pablo José Del Moral Pastor; Sławomir Nowaczyk; Sepideh Pashami; Niklas Lavesson; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Self-monitoring solutions first appeared to avoid catastrophic breakdowns in safety-critical mechanisms. The design behind these solutions relied heavily on the physical knowledge of the mechanism and its fault. They usually involved installing specialized sensors to monitor the state of the mechanism and statistical modeling of the recorded data. READ MORE
