  1. 1. Towards International Chemical Safety : Taking Action on Persistent Organic Pollutants

    Författare :Henrik Selin; Loftsson Elfar; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution CLRTAP ; persistent organic pollutants POPs ; regime analysis; social learning; Miljö; Föroreningar; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Sammanfattning : Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) have been subject to increased international ro-operation over that past decade. The first international effort to address POPs collectively as a distinet class of pollutants was made under the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) and within the framework of the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution (CLRTAP), which geographically covers North America, Europe and the region of the former Soviet Union.

  3. 2. State-Oriented Business Process Modeling : Principles, Theory and Practice

    Författare :Ilia Bider; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :business process; dynamical system; formal semantics; persistent action; law-based programming; business analysis; business modeling; object-oriented modeling; conceptual modeling; workflow;

    Sammanfattning : In the last 50 years, a considerable amount of research workhas been completed in the mathematical system theory and theoryof control. Implementation of the results from this researchinto practice has drastically decreased the production costs.Most production processes are highly automated, and the use ofrobots in industry is growing.

  4. 3. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) in a river ecosystem

    Författare :Gudrun Bremle; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrobiology; dredging; landfill; cleanup; remedial action; air; fish; sediment; Persistent organic pollutants; freshwater; marine biology; aquatic ecology; limnology; Marinbiologi; limnologi; akvatisk ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Atmospheric deposition is one source of persistent pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) in aquatic environments. Other point sources can also contribute to the PCB loadings in the water. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Chains of Trust : Networks of Persistent Resistance in Digital Activism

    Författare :Philip K. Creswell; Hannah Bradby; Tora Holmberg; Cristina Flesher Fominaya; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; collective action; connective action; digital activism; hacktivism; social movements; social movement theory; high-risk activism; Anonymous; digital scenes; network theory; tie-strength; solidarity; micromobilization; commitment; Sociologi; Sociology;

    Sammanfattning : Digital manifestations and their networks are seen as agile, but fragile, with the Internet facilitating fast, low-cost activism by bridging actors, distributing information, and circumventing gatekeepers. From this perspective, mediated collective action and digital activism are theorized through the understanding of the Internet as a medium which affords lowered costs and risks for activists.

  7. 5. Characterising action potential in virtual game worlds applied with the mind module

    Författare :Mirjam Palosaari Eladhari; Clive Fencott; Paul Van Schaik; Michael Mateas; Richard Bartle; Alan Hind; Högskolan på Gotland; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; AI; characterisation; MMO; VGW; characterising action potential;

    Sammanfattning : Because games set in persistent virtual game worlds (VGWs) have massive numbers of players, these games need methods of characterisation for playable characters (PCs) that differ from the methods used in traditional narrative media. VGWs have a number of particularly interesting qualities. LÄS MER
