4. 32. From Young Migrants to "Good Swedes" : Belonging and the Manifestations of Borders and Boundaries in NGO Social Work

   Author : Maria Moberg Stephenson; Åsa Källström; Jürgen Degner; Marcus Herz; Bridget Anderson; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Unaccompanied Young People; NGO Social Work; Belonging; Borders; Boundaries; Community; Citizenship; Mentoring; Kinship Care;

   Abstract : Belonging is a contested concept, and for young people arriving unaccompanied by parents to seek asylum in Sweden, belonging is conditional. The aim of this thesis is thus to analyse belonging in the context of an NGO mentoring programme for young people defined as unaccompanied in Sweden. READ MORE

5. 33. Young adults in rural tourism areas

7. 35. Programming of coarse-grained reconfigurable architectures

   Author : Zain Ul-Abdin; Bertil Svensson; Veronica Gaspes; Dag Stranneby; Mario Porrmann; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Datalogi; Computer and Systems Science;

   Abstract : Coarse-grained reconfigurable architectures, which offer massive parallelism coupled with the capability of undergoing run-time reconfiguration, are gaining attention in order to meet not only the increased computational demands of high-performance embedded systems, but also to fulfill the need of adaptability to functional requirements of the application. This thesis focuses on the programming aspects of such coarse-grained reconfigurable computing devices, including the relevant computation models that are capable of exposing different kinds of parallelism inherent in the application and the ability of these models to capture the adaptability requirements of the application.
