In this work, we present an actors-to-hardware design flow where applications are described as networks of actors and compiled to hardware. Specifically, we use the CAL actor language to describe these applications. CAL has previously been used to specify applications such as the MPEG-RVC decoder and is well suited for compilation to hardware. A key limitation of CAL is that the applications descr

This chapter examines elite polarisation as a challenge to governance in parliamentary democracies. We emphasise the distinction between ideological polarisation based on substantive policy disagreements from affective polarisation, characterised by identity-based animosity that creates barriers to cooperation even when policy compromise might otherwise be possible. While parliamentary regimes hav

This position paper examines the growing dominance of health economics in Swedish healthcare governance and argues that its elevated epistemic authority produces significant risks for the sustainability and ethical integrity of care systems. Drawing on feminist theories of care and critical political economy, the paper interrogates the assumption that care can be adequately represented, valued, or

This study analyzes the effect of cleaner local energy production on the consumer carbon footprint. The results in consumption based carbon footprint assessments have traditionally indicated that a significant change in consumption patterns or lifestyles would be needed to achieve the often aspired, ambitious 50- 80% cutoffs in the carbon emissions on a community level. However, it is also known t

A multi-lane traffic flow model based on stochastic noise driven dynamics is introduced and analyzed. The model employs conservative anisotropic Arrhenius spin-exchange (surfacediffusion) dynamics. We generate an asymmetric simple exclusion process to model vehicleinteractions. Vehicles react and advance based on the energy profile of their surrounding trafficthrough a novel look-ahead asymmetric

Accidents occur in the society daily which require the fire service to respond. The fires cause socio-economic cost estimated to the equivalent value of 7 billion SEK every year. One of the strategies used by the municipalities to reduce the effects of the accidents is to investigate the fires to be able to prevent similar fires in the future. Recent research suggests that the investigations needs

The case of Bertil Ströberg has repeatedly been called one of Sweden's most remarkable criminal cases. The indictment against Ströberg from 1983 claims that he committed grave espionage against Sweden on behalf of Poland. Ströberg says that he is innocent of the crime, and fought until his death to get his case reopened in the Supreme Court. That Ströberg would be innocent is explained by the

In today's digital era, where personalized experiences have become crucial to consumer interactions with brands, the balance between personalization and privacy remains a complex and evolving challenge. Despite the recognized benefits of personalization in driving consumer spending, concerns about privacy and data security persist among individuals. This study addresses the "personalizati

The 1920s saw a significant exchange between eugenicists in Swedenand the young Soviet state. Sweden did not take part in World War I, and duringthe years following immediately upon the Versailles peace treaty, Swedishscholars came to serve as an intermediary link between, on the one hand, SovietRussia and Weimar Germany, and, on the other hand, Western powers. Swedisheugenicists organized confere

This article focuses on Olof von Dalin’s occasional verse, which has not yet been collected in a scholarly edition. Dalin's occasional poems have survived thanks to many people. Some of them were personal friends and acquaintances of his while others did not move in his circles and were not personally known to him. They copied his poems and in not a few cases made sure that they were printed; they

When Swedish wastewater treatment plants were rebuilt to include enhanced nitrogen removal, anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) was far from being a mature technology. During the 2000s, the process has been introduced into sludge liquor treatment worldwide. The step to introduce anammox in the mainstream is decreasing, but lab- and pilot-scale studies on real municipal wastewater are yet lackin

The current control design development process in automotive industry and elsewhere involves many expensive experiments and hand-tuning of control parameters. Model based control design is a promising approach to reduce costs and development time. In this process low complexity models are essential and model reduction methods are very useful tools. This thesis combines the areas of modeling and mo

Two main topics are considered in this thesis: Machining with industrial robot manipulators and optimal motion control of robots and vehicles. The motivation for research on the first subject is the need for flexible and accurate production processes employing industrial robots as their main component. The challenge to overcome here is to achieve high-accuracy machining solutions, in spite of the

Force sensing provides robots the capability to accomplish tasks where physical interaction with the environment is required, such as assembly. Small position uncertainties can then be corrected for by sensing the contact forces. This thesis considers the problem of force-controlled assembly, including how tasks can be specified in a simple and intuitive way and how robust task execution under unc
