In this paper we study the scalability issue in the design of a centralized policy server controlling resources in the future IP-based telecom network generation. The policy servers are in charge of controlling and managing QoS, security and mobility in a centralized way in future IP-based telecom networks. Our study demonstrates that the policy servers can be designed in such a manner that they s
At present our knowledge of enteric peptide-containing neurons in man is limited. In this study we have used human appendices removed at surgery to examine the peptidergic innervation by immunocytochemistry, immunochemistry, and pharmacological in vitro experiments. Immunocytochemistry revealed a variety of peptide-containing nerve fiber populations in the human appendix. VIP/PHI-, VIP/PHI/NPY-, S
Through the construction of a Palestinian diasporic topography of Malmö, this chapter focuses on the interrelationship of multiple spaces of action and interaction of Palestinians, locally and transnationally. In addition, given the different identifications and migration trajectories of Malmö Palestinians (originating in the West Bank, Gaza but also Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and beyond, as well as
Bakgrund Fotboll är Europas största idrott bland både unga och vuxna. För ungdomar innebär regelbunden träning både fysiska och psykiska hälsofördelar. Om man drabbas av en skada kan dessa hälsovinster gå förlorade. Syfte Syftet med studien var att kartlägga och jämföra förekomst och typ av underkroppsskador mellan unga kvinnor och män i en begränsad grupp ungdomsfotbollsspelare. Vilka skadeskilln
In this paper, we assess the relationship between the environmental pillar score (the ‘E’ in ESG) and stock returns in the Swedish stock market. Specifically, we analyze the OMXS60 index, which comprises the 60 most traded assets on the Nasdaq OMX Stockholm Exchange, examining how environmental ratings correlates with the development of returns. Additionally, we investigate how this relationship i
Even though the first coronavirus pandemic was registered in 1965, SARS-CoV-2 was better acknowledged when it caused the worldwide pandemic in 2019 in which millions of individuals lost their lives. Due to its facile way of spreading from one individual to another, the number of infected cases has gone up to more than 750 million to this day. DENV is a very dangerous virus due to its asymptomatic
During the production of Tetra Pak’s packaging material, holes are cut for straws and caps, generating paperboard scraps known as confetti. These scraps must be removed from the machinery to prevent build-up and potential blockages. To design efficient extraction systems, experiments and simulations are employed to understand the phenomena of confetti transport. Confetti are introduced into a simp
Sjöfartsindustrin står för närvarande inför ett paradigmskifte i och med framväxandet av Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS). Dessa fartyg är utformade för att verka autonomt, utan mänsklig närvaro ombord. Den nuvarande rättsliga strukturen inom sjörätten bygger emellertid på antagandet att människor befinner sig ombord på fartygen, vilket har lett till uppkomsten av rättsliga frågor och osäkThe shipping industry is currently at the beginning of a transformative shift with the introduction of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS). With MASS, ships will function without the need for humans onboard. However, the current legal framework within maritime law is built on the premise that humans are in fact onboard ships. Therefore, legal questions and uncertainties have risen alongside t
Despite previous studies extensively focusing on the domestic aspects of the Thai radical and left-wing movement, Thai left-wing publications, and its cultural politics, little is known about the comparative and transnational perspectives. This thesis examines the Thai Leftist Movement and its articulations from the 1970s to the early 1980s in Thailand and Europe, demonstrating how translation pla
Dark matter is the problem of apparent missing mass in the universe, a discrepancy between observations of large-scale astronomical dynamics, and the observed matter density in large scale structures. The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is a proposed experiment to probe the realm of “light dark matter" in the mass range MeV to GeV. Light dark matter refers to a class of models where a new
The diffusion equation is a partial differential equation that describes how quantities such as heat, particles, or other diffusive substances spread out over time and space. This type of equation can be, at often times, quite challenging to solve analytically. Finding the exact solution is often difficult due to the com- plexity of the functions involved. This thesis focuses on solving the diffus
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to find out what pharmaceutical companies are doing in exploitation and exploration to improve R&D productivity. This research will also investigate the implications of management and control theories in combining exploration and exploitation in the context of pharmaceutical R&D. Methodology: Multiple case study interviews. Theoretical perspective
This paper focuses on the Danish ecovillage by the name of Svanholm, with a special attention to how different areas of sustainability is being understood and carried out in practice in the ecovillage. Through a long-term fieldwork and anthropological methods herein, the paper seeks to understand Svanholm with all its possibilities as well as challenges, whether it be in a technical, environmental
The regional disparities in China are increasing, at the same time as the growth moderates. In order to keep successful development in the future, China is rapidly developing the rail infrastructure, as one of the main channels to obtain a balanced regional development. The argument is that regional inequalities will decrease through increased economic interconnection and mobility provided by the
This research aims to investigate the relation of CEO compensation, especially how the sensitivity of CEO wealth to stock return volatility (vega), but also how the sensitivity of CEO wealth to stock price (delta) affects the risk of the firm. Moreover, these relations are investigated in the context of cross-listing to examine whether there are differences between US-only listed firms and those t
Problem: The Milky Way disk consists of two distinct components, the thin and thick disk, each with unique kinematical, elemental, and age-related properties. Among all the properties considered, age stands out as the only one that does not exhibit significant overlap, thereby offering clearer separation between the populations. Stellar ages, determined through isochrone fitting, are reliable main
