1. Towards application of service oriented architecture in wireless sensor networks
Sammanfattning : Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are a foreseeable source of innovation in many fields and the number of WSN deployments is expected to grow rapidly in the near future. One of the key challenges in designing, implementing, deploying and maintaining complex systems that use WSNs is provisioning and integration of sensor data with existing communication infrastructures.

2. Long QT syndrome in Sweden : founder effects and associated cardiac phenotypes
Sammanfattning : Background: We aimed to increase the knowledge regarding the familial arrhythmogenic disorder Long QT Syndrome (LQTS) and its recessive variant Jervell and Lange-Nielsen Syndrome (JLNS) in Sweden, including prevalences and clinical phenotypes. A specific focus was directed towards two KCNQ1 mutations –p.Y111C and p. LÄS MER
3. Early Development of New Technology-Based Firms: How Internal and External Resource Dimensions Impact and Structure the Firm
Sammanfattning : How do founders’ and firms’ business environment impact the early development of new technology-based firms (NTBFs)? In order to answer this question, this thesis explores how internal and external resource dimensions impact and structure the early development of NTBFs. NTBFs are known for their technological innovation and their abilities to boost economic growth and development. LÄS MER
4. On the genetics of hereditary breast/ovarian cancer. BRCA1, BRCA2 and beyond
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women. Most of the breast cancers are sporadic with no apparent inheritance factor but about 5-10% is believed to be caused by an inherited predisposition. Aims: This thesis aimed at defining the BRCA1/2 mutation spectrum of the west Swedish population and specifically to characterize the BRCA1c. LÄS MER
5. Quantitative genetic variation in declining plant populations
Sammanfattning : The ecological and genetic effects of habitat fragmentation are an issue of major concern in current conservation biology. Habitat fragmentation results in smaller habitat areas and as a consequence smaller and more isolated populations. Many habitats have become fragmented through human activities such as forestry and agricultural development. LÄS MER
