In market-driven requirements engineering for platform-based development of embedded systems such as mobile phones, it is crucial to market success to find the right balance among competing quality aspects (aka nonfunctional requirements). This paper presents a conceptual model that incorporates quality as a dimension in addition to the cost and value dimensions used in prioritisation approaches f

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den teoretiska beskrivningen av materians minsta beståndsdelar, den så kallade standardmodellen (SM), överenstämmer med oerhörd noggrannhet med de många och avancerade partikelfysik-experiment som utförts världen över. Trots denna överenstämmelse finns problematiska aspekter hos SM som gör att den inte kommer kunna beskriva fysikaliska fenomen vid högre energier, som änA search for new physics using events with a single photon and missing energy has been made at the DELPHI experiment together with a search for charginos. The results were based on data collected up to and including the final year of 2000. An integrated luminosity of 650 pb^-1 was used in the single photon analysis and 450 pb^-1 in the chargino search. Center-of-mass energies up to 209 GeV were ex

Atmospheric oxygen at the level of present-day Earth (21%) is generally regarded as permissive for the development and survival of complex multicellular life, such as animals. The hypothesis that oxic conditions are conducive for multicellular life has subsequently been applied to the search for life elsewhere in the universe, with planets exhibiting atmospheric oxygen of a similar level to Earth

Efficient variability management is a key issue in large-scale product line engineering, where products with different propositions are built on a common platform. Variability management implies challenges both on requirements engineering and configuration management. This paper presents findings from an improvement effort in an industrial case study including the following contributions: problem

A multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) dual-band antenna system consisting of two elements, each of which built up of circularly polarized slotted patch antenna for mm-wave band 5G wireless handheld and portable terminals is described. Space diversity is used to achieve a good independent channel fading in MIMO systems. In theoretical analysis of MIMO systems often assume that each antenna is iso

Global climate change has enormous impacts on urban areas in the developing world. The known and growing effects of climate change, like increased temperatures and increased incidence of severe storms, is evident. This winter, 2015, extreme cold waves and snow storms hit the Middle East region. Death rates in Syrian refugee camps were significant due to inefficient temporary shelters. Children and

Thermal models and indices integrated into a mobile application could provide relevant information regarding thermal stress and strain to the general public. The aim of the current paper is to validate such a mobile application, ClimApp, to the users needs in the heat. ClimApp combines weather data with personal user data, thermal models and indices to estimate the thermal strain of the user. The

This study investigates the use of mobile data to understand patterns of population movements and disease transmission during the Covid-19 outbreak. It also focuses on understanding the implications of using this data for individual privacy. Using a mixed methods approach, we present 10 rich qualitative interviews and 412 survey responses from participants across the Nordics. Our novel results sho

The present quantitative research focuses on studying the effect of uncertainty in online information search related mainly to travel planning. The main emphasis is in the individual and combined effect of these variables towards different demographic segments of international travelers. In order to do so it draws insights from Uncertainty avoidance (Hofstede, 2001) and information foraging theory

Context. Despite the ever-increasing number of known exoplanets, no uncontested detections have been made of their satellites, known as exomoons. Aims. The quest to find exomoons is at the forefront of exoplanetary sciences. Certain space-born instruments are thought to be suitable for this purpose. We show the progress made with the CHaracterising ExOPlanets Satellite (CHEOPS) in this field using
