The Swedish construction sector in general has not been swift in accepting new process improvements as they have been put forward by academics or government. There are many possible
The paper is an investigation of the concept "word".
Energy consumption reduction is today an important design issue for all kinds of digital systems. Offering both flexibility and efficient energy management, variable speed processor architectures are prefered for low energy consumption even in hard real-time systems. For this type of systems, the main approach consists in trading speed for lower energy while meeting all deadlines. For tasks with v

The detection of spectral line profile variability for stars of the HgMnclass of chemical peculiarity has been poorly documented in theliterature yet holds a special significance for understandingrelationships between observed spectral anomalies, stellar surfacestructure, and magnetic fields. The HgMn stars have until now not beenconfirmed to vary in their light or spectral characteristics in ways
The concept “Broken Technologies” is related to the question: “Which is the benefit of humanity studies?” Of course the question is rhetorical because, how could this question be answered if the benefit was not obvious? Any answer supposes that we understand what we are asking for and the study of “what we mean” is one of the axes of the epistemology of the humanities. Anyway, we can also put the
