  2. 1. Mistaken morality? : an essay on moral error theory

    Author : Emma Beckman; Gunnar Björnsson; Bart Streumer; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; moral error theory; Mackie; Joyce; Olson; normative institution; fictionalism; normative error theory; epistemic error theory; irreducible normativity; abolitionism; conservationism; propagandism;

    Abstract : This dissertation explores arguments and questions related to moral error theory – the idea that morality inevitably involves a fundamental and serious error such that moral judgments and statements never come out true. It is suggested that the truth of error theory remains a non-negligible possibility, and that we for this reason should take a version of moral fictionalism seriously. READ MORE

  4. 2. Aggregating Case Studies of Vehicle Crashes by Means of Causation Charts : An Evaluation and Revision of the Driving Reliability and Error Analysis Method

    Author : Jesper Sandin; Per Lövsund; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Accident; Cause; Classification; Characteristics; Driver; Error; 81 Road: Accidents; 81 Road: Accidents; 841 Road: Road user behaviour; 841 Road: Road user behaviour;

    Abstract : There is a need for increased knowledge about causes to motor-vehicle crashes and their prevention. Multidisciplinary in-depth case studies can provide detailed causation data that is otherwise unattainable. Such data might allow the formulation of hypotheses of causes and causal relationships for further study. READ MORE

  5. 3. Culling Concurrency Theory : Reusable and trustworthy meta-theory, proof techniques and separation results

    Author : Johannes Åman Pohjola; Joachim Parrow; Björn Victor; Uwe Nestmann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : As concurrent systems become ever more complex and ever more ubiquitous, the need to understand and verify them grows ever larger. For this we need formal modelling languages that are well understood, with rigorously verified foundations and proof techniques, applicable to a wide variety of concurrent systems. READ MORE

  6. 4. Quantum error correction

    Author : Jonas Almlöf; Gunnar Björk; Jan-Åke Larsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum error correction; dissipative channel; decoherence; fidelity; mutual information;

    Abstract : This thesis intends to familiarise the reader with quantum error correction, and also show some relations to the well known concept of information - and the lesser known quantum information. Quantum information describes how information can be carried by quantum states, and how interaction with other systems give rise to a full set of quantum phenomena, many of which have no correspondence in classical information theory.

  7. 5. Capabilities of Convolutional Codes: Unequal Error Protection and More

    Author : Victor Pavlushkov; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Elektronik och elektroteknik; Electronics and Electrical technology; systemteori; Informatik; Informatics; systems theory; woven codes; unequal error protection; active input-distance; active output-distance; maximum slope; active distances; Convolutional codes; error-correcting capability;

    Abstract : Many communication systems obtain enhanced performance by using concatenated coding schemes. Turbo codes and woven convolutional codes are two examples of such schemes. READ MORE
