  1. 16. “Quality Problems” in Swedish Municipal Adult Education : The Micropolitics of Quality Construed in the Audit Society

    Author : Johanna Mufic; Andreas Fejes; Song-ee Ahn; Andreas Bergh; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Adult Education; Governing; Swedish Schools Inspectorate; Quality; WPR-approach; Kvalitet; Skolinspektion; Styrning; WPR-applikation; Vuxenutbildning;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to analyze and critically scrutinize how quality is construed in an audit process in Swedish Municipal Adult Education (MAE) and the discursive effects. Drawing on adult education policy documents and observations of a quality audit process, as well as the Swedish Schools Inspectorate’s (SSI) Day, this study also contributes to the uncharted field of how the micropolitics of “quality” is being produced in the Audit society within adult education.

  2. 17. Marginal Productivity Indices and Linear Programming Relaxations for Dynamic Resource Allocation in Queueing Systems

    Author : Jianhua Cao; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Markov decision process; Indexability; Linear programming; Queueing theory; Optimization;

    Abstract : Many problems concerning resource management in modern communication systems can be simplified to queueing models under Markovian assumptions. The computation of the optimal policy is however often hindered by the curse of dimensionality especially for models that support multiple traffic or job classes. READ MORE

  3. 18. On design of experiments in continuous processes

    Author : Erik Vanhatalo; Geoffrey Vining; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kvalitetsteknik; Quality Technology and Management;

    Abstract : Design of Experiments (DoE) includes powerful methods, such as factorial designs, to help maximize the information output from conducted experiments while minimizing the experimental work required for statistically significant results. The benefits of using DoE in industry are thoroughly described in the literature although the actual use of the methods in industry is far from being pervasive. READ MORE

  4. 19. Aspects of Dimensional Deconstruction and Neutrino Physics

    Author : Tomas Hällgren; Tommy Ohlsson; Stephan J. Hubber; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dimensional deconstruction; higher-dimensional gauge theories; discretized gravity; neutrino mass; neutrino mixing; neutrino oscillations; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : The existence of at or curved extra spatial dimensions provides new insights into several of the problems which face the Standard Model of particle physics, including the gauge hierarchy problem, the smallness of neutrino masses, and the dark matter problem. However, higher-dimensional gauge theories are not renormalizable and can only be considered as low-energy effective theories, with limited applicability. READ MORE

  5. 20. Skew-symmetric matrix pencils : stratification theory and tools

    Author : Andrii Dmytryshyn; Bo Kågström; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Investigating the properties, explaining, and predicting the behaviour of a physical system described by a system (matrix) pencil often require the understanding of how canonical structure information of the system pencil may change, e.g., how eigenvalues coalesce or split apart, due to perturbations in the matrix pencil elements.
