1. Family caregiving for persons with heart failure : Perspectives of family caregivers, persons with heart failure and registered nurses
Sammanfattning : Heart failure is a growing public health problem associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Family support positively affects outcomes for the person with heart failure while also leading to caregiver burden. Registered nurses have a key role in supporting and meeting the needs of family caregivers. LÄS MER
2. Tracking Theory for Preventive Safety Systems
Sammanfattning : Preventive safety systems rely on accurate information from a sensing system regarding the current traffic situation to make decision whether to inform, warn or intervene to avoid an impeding collision or to mitigate its consequences. This thesis mainly considers tracking algorithms to enhance these systems through making the best use of the information supplied by on-vehicle sensors, such as radar and vision sensors. LÄS MER
3. Textteori för läsforskare ('Text theory for reading scholars')
Sammanfattning : The dissertation examines a prevalent problem in reception studies: how can we actually observe and describe the text (defined as an element that enables and restricts reading experiences) as either given and transcendent to any reading practice or as uniquely produced in each reading? The author tries to find a solution by aid of Wittgenstein's philosophy of language, Kenneth Burke's socio-rhetorics and Niklas Luhmann's systems theory. These perspectives are discussed in turn and tested in readings of a few pages on Mayakovsky and futurism taken from a textbook. LÄS MER
4. Coherent Optical Transmission Systems : Performance and Coding Aspects
Sammanfattning : Since the invention of fiber-optic systems in the 1970s, user demand has driven innovation forward, and each new generation of products has achieved higher data rates than its predecessor. Today, the most promising approach for further increasing data rates is coherent transmission with multi-level modulation and digital signal processing (DSP). LÄS MER
5. Culling Concurrency Theory : Reusable and trustworthy meta-theory, proof techniques and separation results
Sammanfattning : As concurrent systems become ever more complex and ever more ubiquitous, the need to understand and verify them grows ever larger. For this we need formal modelling languages that are well understood, with rigorously verified foundations and proof techniques, applicable to a wide variety of concurrent systems. LÄS MER
