  2. 1. Cognition Seen Through the Eyes of Hearing Aid Users : Working Memory Resource Allocation for Speech Perception and Recall

    Author : Andreea Micula; Jerker Rönnberg; Elaine Hoi Ning Ng; Piers Dawes; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Working memory; Free recall; Pupillary responses; Noise reduction; Arbetsminne; Återgivning; Pupillmätning; Brusreducering;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates how hearing aid users allocate working (WM) memory resources under various task demands when listening to and storing speech in memory for later recall. This was done by combining an auditory recall task, the Sentence-final Word Identification and Recall (SWIR) test, with pupillometry. READ MORE

  4. 2. Dealing with Digits : Arithmetic, Memory and Phonology in Deaf Signers

    Author : Josefine Andin; Mary Rudner; Jerker Rönnberg; Örjan Dahlström; Lars Nyberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adult deaf signers; phonology; arithmetic; short-term memory; working memory; neuro imaging; Vuxna teckenspråkiga döva; fonologi; aritmetik; korttidsminne; arbetsminne; hjärnavbildning;

    Abstract : Deafness has been associated with poor abilities to deal with digits in the context of arithmetic and memory, and language modality-specific differences in the phonological similarity of digits have been shown to influence short-term memory (STM). Therefore, the overall aim of the present thesis was to find out whether language modality-specific differences in phonological processing between sign and speech can explain why deaf signers perform at lower levels than hearing peers when dealing with digits.

  5. 3. Resource Allocation for Data-Intensive Services in the Cloud

    Author : David Daharewa Gureya; Vladimir Vlassov; Joao Pedro Barreto; Gregory Chockler; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cloud computing; QoS-aware resource allocation; Elasticity controller; Multi-socket systems; Non-uniform memory access; Page placement; Memory-intensive applications; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Cloud computing has become ubiquitous due to its resource flexibility and cost efficiency. Resource flexibility allows Cloud users to elastically scale their Cloud resources, for instance, by horizontally scaling the number of virtual machines allocated to each application as the application demands change.

  6. 4. Constraint-Based Register Allocation and Instruction Scheduling

    Author : Roberto Castañeda Lozano; Christian Schulte; Ingo Sander; Mats Carlsson; Laurent Michel; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; constraint programming; combinatorial optimization; register allocation; instruction scheduling; compiler construction; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Register allocation (mapping variables to processor registers or memory) and instruction scheduling (reordering instructions to improve latency or throughput) are central compiler problems. This dissertation proposes a combinatorial optimization approach to these problems that delivers optimal solutions according to a model, captures trade-offs between conflicting decisions, accommodates processor-specific features, and handles different optimization criteria.

  7. 5. Resource allocation for Mobile Edge Clouds

    Author : Amardeep Mehta; Erik Elmroth; Johan Tordsson; Valeria Cardellini; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mobile Edge Clouds; Edge Fog Computing; IoTs; Distributed Resource Allocation; datalogi; Computer Science; Computer Systems; datorteknik;

    Abstract : Recent advances in Internet technologies have led to the proliferation of new distributed applications in the transportation, healthcare, mining, security, and entertainment sectors. The emerging applications have characteristics such as being bandwidth-hungry, latency-critical, and applications with a user population contained within a limited geographical area, and require high availability, low jitter, and security.
