21. Torque based estimation of diesel engine combustion phasing
Sammanfattning : Demands on increased efficiency and reduced emission levels introduce new challenges for the design of modern diesel engines. In order to fulfill these demands, diesel engines of today are becoming more and more complex. This escalating complexity not only applies to the engine itself, but also to its control system.

23. Signal Modeling and Data Reduction for Wireless Brain-Machine Interfaces
Sammanfattning : Brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) provide a uni- or bidirectional communication link between the central nervous system and the outside world. This link facilitates the studying of neuronal mechanisms underlying behavior as well as the treatment of neurological disease. LÄS MER
24. Cost-effectiveness analysis of health technologies when evidence is scarce
Sammanfattning : Given the increasing pressures on health care budgets, economic evaluation is used in many countries to assist decision-making regarding the optimal use of competing health care technologies. Although the standard methods of estimating cost-effectiveness underpinning these decisions have gained widespread acceptance, concerns have been raised that many technologies would not be considered for funding, due to scarcity of evidence.
