  2. 1. Being Multisituated : Characterizing laptoping in networked situations

    Author : Tomas Lindroth; Magnus Bergquist; Ulrika Lundh Snis; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Laptoping; laptoper; interaction order; actor-network theory; networked situation; multisituationism.; Informatik; Informatics; laptoping; laptoper; interaction order; actor-network theory; networked situation; multisituation;

    Abstract : During the last 30 years mobile IT has gone from being an exotic ingredient to an everyday artifact. This thesis presents an ethnographic study of laptop use in a university setting. The thesis concludes that it is no longer enough to describe the use of portable IT as an activity in its own right, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 2. Control and Communication with Signal-to-Noise Ratio Constraints

    Author : Erik Johannesson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Real-time coding; SNR; Causal coding; AWN channel; AWGN channel; Remote source; Networked control; Control over channel; Convex optimization; Wiener filter;

    Abstract : This thesis is about two problems in the intersection of communication and control theory. Their common feature is that they involve communication over an additive white noise channel with a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) constraint. The first problem concerns the transmission of a real-valued signal from a partially observed Markov source. READ MORE

    Author : Mats Persson; Else Nygren; Tim Grant; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : In response to technological advances, especially in the field of information and communication technology (ICT), the so called revolution in military affairs (RMA) and later the concept of network-centric warfare (NCW) emerged as a theory to further utilize technology for military command and control (C2). Advocates of the Swedish ROLF 2010-vision and the concept of NCW have made claims and assumptions that future technology will improve mission effectiveness by, for example, increasing the understanding of a current situation and its development, the speed of command, and providing means to utilize more efficient forms of organizations.

  7. 5. Collaborating with Gertrude Stein : Media ecologies, reception, poetics

    Author : Solveig Daugaard; Tania Ørum; Carin Franzén; Jesper Olsson; Logan Esdale; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; American poetry; Gertrude Stein; media ecologies; reception; poetics; collaborative poetics; media poetics; ambient poetics; Amerikansk poesi; Gertrude Stein; medieekologi; reception; poetik; samarbetspoetik; mediepoetik; ”ambient” poetik;

    Abstract : The reception of the American avant-garde poet, playwright, art collector and salon hostess Gertrude Stein (1874-1946) has to a wide extent taken place in an aesthetic context prior to her work’s academic and hermeneutic canonization. This thesis is in part a mapping of this transmedia reception as it is played out in a North American context in the period from her death and until today, and in part an account of Stein’s particular collaborative poetics, through which her work invites such a reception.
