Thread-Level Speculation has been used to take advantage of multicore processors in virtual execution environments for the sequential JavaScript scripting language. While the results are promising the memory overhead is high. Here we propose to reduce the memory usage by limiting the checkpoint depth based on an in-depth study of the memory and execution time effects. We also propose an adaptive h

A model for the web consolidation process in the paper dryer is developed and compared with experimental data for the kraft pulps. The model contains one parameter called the shrinkage factor which is used as the fitting parameter to the experimental data. The shrinkage factor can have a value between zero implying no shrinkage and a value of one which implies that all the liquid volume removed le

Fresh and aged diesel soot particles have different impacts on climate and human health. Whilefresh diesel soot particles are highly aspherical and non-hygroscopic, aged particles are sphericaland hygroscopic. Aging and its effect on water uptake also controls the dispersion of diesel soot inthe atmosphere. Understanding the timescales on which diesel soot ages in the atmosphere is thus important,Fresh and aged diesel soot particles have different impacts on climate and human health.

Large seasonal water-level fluctuations may influence isotopic signatures of primary producers and the types and amounts of these potential food sources accessible to aquatic fauna of Poyang Lake, the largest freshwater lake in China. In this study, the isotopic signatures of primary producers and consumers were determined, stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis and mixing models were combine

Tillgång till tillräckliga mängder vatten av god kvalitet är en väsentlig resurs för samhället. Det behövs för mänsklig konsumtion, för produktion i industrin, för fisket, etcetera. Det är därför mycket oroande att vattenkvaliteten i Europeiska unionen successivt försämras. Östersjön som är mycket påverkad av övergödning kan nämnas som ett exempel. Övergödning orsakas av utsläpp av näringsämnen iThe supply of good quality water is an essential resource for society. It is needed for human consumption, for production processes in the industry, for fishing, etcetera. The fact that the quality of waters within the European Union is continuously deteriorating is therefore of major concern. One example is the Baltic Sea, which is heavily affected by eutrophication. Eutrophication is caused b

The aim of this paper has been to provide a socio-legal analysis of domestic violence and divorce in secular Uzbekistan. The legislation express that men and women are equal to the law, that any kind of discrimination is forbidden and judicial divorce is possible. However, domestic violence is socially accepted through social norms and traditions while to seek divorce is viewed as a shameful act.

7,5 högskolepoäng Kursinnehåll Vi börjar kursen med att kartlägga kopplingen mellan modern biologisk undersökande vetenskap och metoder, hypotestestning samt etik inom forskning. Sedan behandlar vi grundläggande statistik- och sannolikhetsteori, datahantering, statistiska analysmetoder för biologiska experiment, experimentell design samt utvärdering av experiment. Kursen ges på plats vårterminer p

Metallic nanoparticles can function as label-free nanosensors monitoring the local dielectric environment in their close vicinity, thanks to the localized surface plasmon resonances. The sensing figure of merit is limited by the total loss rate of the plasmon. Here, we theoretically study a silver nanocube dimer and discover for the first time a dark plasmon with its total loss rate at the lower t

We use 2D electronic photon-echo spectroscopy to study ultrafast singlet exciton fission in pentacene. Our observations and analysis of vibronic coherences provide insight to the role played by dark multiexcitonic states in mediating fission.

This thesis, based on Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials trilogy, analyses, from a gender perspective, the depiction of the two main female characters, the main protagonist Lyra and her mother Marisa Coulter, by contemplating their developments throughout the story and by comparing them to the depiction and development of their male counterparts: the second protagonist Will, and Lyra's father

In this thesis, the consequences of extending the internal symmetries of the standard model with a complex singlet scalar field, are investigated in terms of dark matter phenomenology and the possibility of primordial gravitational wave detection utilizing space based laser interferometry. The scalar potential of the model is constructed with a Z2 symmetry, which allows for the retainment of a lin

Background and objectivesDarkness is a significant barrier to children’s independent mobility (Shaw et al., 2015) affecting the perception and use of outdoor environments, making them less attractive, and increasing social fears (Cele, 2019). This literature review addresses the question of how artificial outdoor lighting may serve to provide children independent mobilityafter dark.Process and met

In this study, the duality of adaptive capacity in aviation safety is examined, where the need for resilience of frontline workers conflicts with the expectations and assumptions of upstream entities, leading to system brittleness. We explore three critical categories: responsibilization, the application of practical wisdom in navigating challenging situations, and the unrecognized sacrifices that
