Self-adaptive software systems monitor their operation and adapt when their requirements fail due to unexpected phenomena in their environment. This paper examines the case where the environment changes dynamically over time and the chosen adaptation has to take into account such changes. In control theory, this type of adaptation is known as Model Predictive Control and comes with a well-develope
20th century massification of higher education and research in academia is said to have produced structurally stratified higher education systems in many countries. Most manifestly, the research mission of universities appears to be divisive. Authors have claimed that the Swedish system, while formally unified, has developed into a binary state, and statistics seem to support this conclusion. This
This paper presents the characterization and optimization of acoustic capture of platelet-derived microparticles (PMPs) from human plasma. The technique is compared to a standard preparation protocol using differential centrifugation on biobank samples from patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The main advantages of this new method are the capability of rapidly capturing micro
We have all experienced how a telephone conversation can be more challenging than speaking face to face. Understanding the intended meaning of a speaker‘s words requires forming an impression of the current mental state of the speaker, including her beliefs, intentions, and emotional state (Sperber & Wilson, 1995). Facial expressions are an important source of this information. In this study,
In this work we present theoretical modeling and additional experiments to characterize noncontact acoustic trapping in a small glass capillary. We provide numerical 3D-simulations that captures several key features of the experiment.
This paper reports simultaneous detection of ultra violet (UV) absorbance and native UV-excited fluorescence in an electrophoresis microchip using UV transparent integrated waveguides. Absorbance detection enables detection of a wide range of analytes. When exposed to UV light, some compounds also exhibit native fluorescence, which is here detected simultaneously. Calibration curves were measured
This panel is devoted to an exploration of multimodal, visual staging of meaning in the Middle East and its transnational interconnectedness. Presentations will discuss examples of visual inventiveness in different and multimodal medial contexts, varying both in terms of motivations, positions of power and visual strategies employed. The panel invites reflection on how the study of current visual
