Mobile terminals that have the possibility to make intersystem handovers will increase in numbers and importance as the interaction between wireless networks evolve. New services and applications are pushing this system development. Users want their mobile terminal to be able to make seamless handovers both within the present wireless network as well as to other wireless systems. In this paper suc

Reality TV is about the viewing experience of popular factual television. What is often missing from the great debate about reality TV, and its impact on television and its audience, are the voices of people who watch reality programmes. There is much to learn from listening to audience discussion about a popular and rapidly changing television genre. Audience responses to reality TV can provide i

Our Nordic Sappho. Classical and modern features in Sophia Elisabeth Brenner's poetry. This essay explores how Mrs. Brenner made use of classical mythology and history when composing poems in Swedish. For instance, when celebrating King Charles XII's victory at Narva in 1700, she made allusions to Julius Caesar, and in her introductory poem to a guide in obstetrics she brought in Juno and Pliny

The proximity between the ions results in large interactions and potentially allows fast gates, but they can still be separately addressed since different ions have different optical resonance frequency. The interaction that enables multi-qubit gates can be turned on at will and is based on that the permanent dipole moment changes as a control ion is transferred to the optically excited state whic

On the logical phrase "quod erat demonstrandum" and its application in the history of geometry, philosophy and science.

The first and largely experimental part of a research program on flammability characteristics of upholstered furniture has been completed with full-scale tests in an extensively instrumented burn-out room as main element. The results indicate that fire response parameters vary within a large range with choice of filling, interlining and fabric material. Selection of performance criteria may cause

The present thesis addresses three issues related to proteinaceous films at solid/liquid interfaces: adsorption, lubrication and enzymatic interactions. Most of the work has been devoted to oral systems. In addition, gelatin has been investigated as a model protein. Salivary protein adsorption from human whole saliva (HWS) onto hydroxyapatite (HA) and silica has been characterised using ellipsome

Models for materials with nonlinear electromagnetic response are examined. Three simple physical causes for nonlinear behavior are presented: electronic polarization, molecular direction and electrostriction. Some introductory results and approximations for nonlinear, dispersive media are given, such as the phase-matching criterion, Miller's rule, the Born approximation and the slowly varying ampl
