  1. 1. Foraging behaviour in piscivorous fish: mechanisms and patterns

    Author : Håkan Turesson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aquatic ecology; limnology; Marinbiologi; limnologi; akvatisk ekologi; marine biology; Hydrobiology; piscivory; consumption rate; confusion effect; capture success; predation; encounter rate; prey choice;

    Abstract : Mechanistic understanding of piscivore foraging at the individual level is important in order to understand and make predictions of piscivore effects at population and community levels. To understand the mechanisms affecting selection and consumption rates each step in the foraging cycle (search, encounter, active choice, attack, capture, ingestion, digestion) should be studied.

  2. 2. Dual Data Rate Network-on-Chip Architectures

    Author : Ahsen Ejaz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dual Data-Rate; Network-on-Chip; System-on-Chip; On-Chip Interconnect; Chip Multiprocessors; Multiprocessor System-on-Chip;

    Abstract : Networks-on-Chip (NoCs) are becoming increasing important for the performance of modern multi-core systems-on-chip. The performance of current NoCs is limited, among others, by two factors: their limited clock frequency and long router pipeline. The clock frequency of a network defines the limits of its saturation throughput. READ MORE

  3. 3. An Encounter with Convolutional Codes over Rings

    Author : Emma Wittenmark; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Telekommunikationsteknik; Data- och systemvetenskap; Telecommunication engineering; computer technology; direct sum decomposition of a ring; Systems engineering; minimal trellis; generator matrix properties; code properties; convolutional codes; codes over rings;

    Abstract : Convolutional codes is one possibility when there is a need for error-correcting codes in communication systems. Using convolutional codes over rings is a relatively new approach. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Maternal Migration Effect : Exploring Maternal Healthcare in Diaspora Using Qualitative Proxies for Medical Anthropology

    Author : Pauline Binder; Birgitta Essén; Sara Johnsdotter; Helen Lambert; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : caesarean section; care encounter; constructivist; interpreter use; migration; Somali; African immigrant; socio-cultural factors; International Health; Internationell hälsa;

    Abstract : This project explores the 'maternal migration effect'. Following migration to a high-income country with a low maternal mortality rate, we assume that some immigrant women’s reliance upon maternal practices that respond to a low-income, high-mortality context can adversely affect care-seeking and utilization of treatment facilities.

  5. 5. Resource- and Time-Constrained Control Synthesis for Multi-Agent Systems

    Author : Pian Yu; Dimos V. Dimarogonas; Carlo Fischione; Ming Cao; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multi-agent systems; event-triggered communication and control; limited data rate; task scheduling; control synthesis;

    Abstract : Multi-agent systems are employed for a group of agents to achieve coordinated tasks, in which distributed sensing, computing, communication and control are usually integrated with shared resources. Efficient usage of these resources is therefore an important issue. READ MORE
