This paper describes in what ways hierarchical organizations influence the utilization and dissemination of knowledge. Particular attention will be paid to the role that tacit knowledge has. The reporting system of incidents is one element in a larger institutional process, often termed 'lessons learned' (LL). This process helps to suggest solutions to identify shortcomings and facilitates in maki
The Conference on Computational Natural Language Learning is accompanied every year by a shared task whose purpose is to promote natural language processing applications and evaluate them in a standard setting. In 2008 the shared task was dedicated to the joint parsing of syntactic and semantic dependencies. This shared task not only unifies the shared tasks of the previous four years under a uniq
Popular Abstract in Swedish Författaren utarbetar och försvarar en version av kantiansk etik som utgår från Kants tanke att det enda som har absolut värde är den goda viljan och att det högsta goda för människor därmed består i dygd samt lycka i proportion till dygd. Avhandlingen består av två huvudsakliga delar, dels en allmän genomgång av vad det innebär att vara en person, dvs en varelse som inThis work seeks to develop a Kantian ethical theory in terms of a general ontology of values and norms together with a metaphysics of the person that makes sense of this ontology. It takes as its starting point Kant’s assertion that a good will is the only thing that has an unconditioned value and his accompanying view that the highest good consists in virtue and happiness in proportion to virtue.
This article deals with the establishment of auteurist criticism in early 1950s Britain, particularly emphasizing the role played by Oxford university film journal Sequence and the writings of future film director Lindsay Anderson.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Jäst kan antingen bryta ner socker direkt till koldioxid och vatten genom andning, eller indirekt via koldioxid och etanol, genom jäsning. Andning är en process som förbrukar syre, och sker därför endast under syrerika (aeroba) förhållanden. Jäsning kräver till skillnad från andning inte tillgång till syre, och kan därför ske under syrefattiga (anaeroba) förhållanden. Under aerobic conditions, most yeasts such as Kluyveromyces lactis, prefer the respiratory pathway and some, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae prefer less energy efficient fermentative pathway for their energy metabolism. These two metabolic strategies are also known as Crabtree negative and Crabtree positive respectively, and the evolution of the latter has lately been explained by the “make-accum
This article describes the interactive instrument/sound installation etherSound and discusses its artistic and ethical implications. etherSound is a work in progress and the main intent is to create a vehicle for audience participation through the use of SMS (Short Message Service). The two different contexts in which etherSound has been tried (in concert with performers and as a sound installatio
Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodomloppet innesluts av kroppens kärlsystem och ombesörjer tillförsel av näringsämnen och syre till kroppens organ och vävnader. Det svarar också för borttransport av slaggprodukter och syretömda röda blodkroppar tillbaka till lungorna för ”omladdning”. Inget organ fungerar bättre än vad som dess blodförsörjning tillåter. Våra organ och vävnader säkrar därför sin egenAngiotensin II (Ang II) is a potent vasoconstrictor that is implicated in the pathogenesis of hypertension, heart failure and atherosclerosis. In this thesis, the efficacy and safety of Ang II receptor blockers (ARB) were evaluated. The vasomotor effects of Ang II in endothelium-denuded human coronary arteries were characterized by in vitro pharmacology and the Ang II receptor mRNA levels were qua
The Swedish university market has increased during the latest decades in more than one dimension. The traditional engineering programme in land surveying has become part of a market oriented educational structure. A diversification of university programmes has lead to new Bachelor and Master of Science programmes in land surveying and management, as well as in GIS and geomatics, with today five un
Popular Abstract in Swedish Enzymet magnesium-kelatas katalyserar bildandet av magnesuim-protoporfyrin genom insättning av en magnesiumjon i protoporfyrin. Detta är det första unika steget i tillverkningen av klorofyll hos växter, alger och fotosyntetiska bakterier. Magnesium-kelatas är uppbyggt av tre olika proteiner som kallas I (vikt 40 kDa), D (70 kDa) och H (140 kDa). Tillsammans bildar dessaThe insertion of Mg2+ into protoporphyrin IX represents the first committed step in the chlorophyll and bacteriochlorophyll biosynthetic pathways. The reaction is catalyzed by the multisubunit enzyme Mg-chelatase, which consists of three subunits, known as I (molecular weight ~40 kDa), D (~70 kDa), and H (~140 kDa). To fully understand this first step in chlorophyll biosynthesis each protein compo
In this paper a systematic study of the surface influence on the elastic properties of nanosized iron and tungsten wires and films is performed. Single crystal defect-free nanowires and nanofilms are examined through molecular statics simulations, and the concepts of surface energy and third order elastic constants are used in an attempt to describe the elastic properties. For structures where the re
