No cenário do mercado mundial as empresas para obter vantagem competitiva buscam reduzir os custos logísticos bem como agilizar o atendimento do pedido. Neste contexto é crescente a aplicação de ferramentas para uma eficiente gestão da armazenagem, a fim de garantir a melhor alocação dos produtos no armazém. O método da Curva ABC, baseado no princípio de Pareto classifica o portfólio da empresa obtendo assim a separação dos produtos em classes. Os itens da Classe A merecem maior atenção já que representam 80% da movimentação financeira da empresa. Já a ferramenta multicritério AHP possibilita a análise de vários critérios (demanda, movimentação financeira, sazonalidade, entre outros) para determinar qual a melhor alternativa para atender a meta principal. Este projeto tem como meta principal estabelecer a ferramenta/técnica que garantirá um posicionamento de produto otimizado, tem-se como alternativas a alocação baseada na classificação ABC e a alocação por meio da priorização dos produtos estabelecida pela hierarquia do AHP. A ferramenta/técnica foi implementada em linguagem C, realizou-se a simulação de 1620 tarefas de carregamento e descarregamento para alocação aleatória, ABC e AHP, para garantir o fluxo de entradas e saídas do armazém. Por meio da análise dos resultados tem-se que o sistema proposto é viável e eficiente já que garante a redução das distâncias percorridas e agiliza o tempo de atendimento ao pedido, implicando assim em redução dos custos logísticos. As reduções alcançadas com a alocação baseada no método ABC garantiu 8,42% para as distâncias percorridas e 8,43% no tempo de execução das tarefas para o descarregamento de caminhões. Com relação a aplicação da ferramenta multicritério para alocar itens no armazém obteve-se uma redução de 12,81% e 13,47% para distância percorrida e tempo total, respectivamente. Conclui-se que o projeto é de grande relevância para a área, pois garante um ótimo fluxo nas movimentações do armazém, já que reduz as movimentações desnecessárias e quanto maior o fluxo de entradas e saídas no armazém e número de tarefas a serem atendidas, as reduções se tornarão mais visíveis.<br>To obtain competitive advantages in the global market scenario, companies have aimed at reducing logistic costs as well as streamlining the order of fulfillment. In this context the use of tools to efficiently manage the storage, ensuring a best allocation of the products has been growing. The method of the ABC Curve, based on the Principle of Pareto qualifies the portfolio of a company so that products can be separated into classes. The items of Class A deserve special attention since they represent 80% of the financial transactions of a company. On the other hand, the AHP multicriteria tool enables the analysis of several criteria (demand, financial transaction, seasonality, among others) to determine the best alternative to achieve the main goal. The primary aim of this project is to establish a tool/technique to ensure the correct positioning of the products optimized by either the allocation based on the ABC classification or the allocation by prioritizing the products established by the AHP. The tool/technique was implemented in language C and 1,620 loading and unloading tasks were simulated for random allocation, ABC and AHP to ensure the flow of inputs and outputs from the storage. The results show that the system proposed is viable and efficient, as it shortens the distances traveled and streamlines the time of order of fulfillment, reducing the logistic costs. The reductions achieved with the allocations based on the ABC method ensure 8.42% for the traveled distances and 8.43% for the time spent to unload the trunks. The multicriteria tool allowed reductions of 12.81% and 13.47% in the traveled distances and time spent, respectively, to allocate the items into the storage. The project is of great relevance for the area, as it ensures an optimum flow in the movements of the storage, reducing the unnecessary movements.

Le conversazioni in abitacolo possono essere assistite da sistemi di amplificazione, ma gli ac-coppiamenti acustici possono creare effetti di feedback ed eco. A causa di questi, l’intelligibilità del parlato potrebbe diminuire e guadagni di canale elevato possono innescare l’effetto Larsen. Metodi di cancellazione di feedback ed eco acustici devono essere adottati per mantenere stabile il sistema.
In questo lavoro è proposto un test-bench per AFC ibrido HW/SW, basato sul DSP TMS320C6748, testato con gli approcci PEM-AFROW e Suppressor-PEM. I test hanno confermato l’adeguatezza del framework in varie condizioni acustiche.
È stato preso in considerazione anche uno scenario Dual-Channel, dove devono essere consi-derati anche gli accoppiamenti di eco. Sono stati inseriti anche rilevamenti del parlato e di double talk. Simulazioni al computer hanno dimostrato l’efficacia dell’approccio.
Il comfort in auto è degradato anche dal rumore. Sistemi di controllo attivo del rumore possono migliorare la qualità sonora suonando un opportuno segnale di anti-noise da una sorgente secondaria. Gli approcci a banda stretta sono stati approfonditi per la loro semplicità ed efficacia nella cancellazione di rumori tonali.
In questo lavoro è anche proposto un algoritmo robusto basato sul narrow-band FxLMS. Le simulazioni hanno dimostrato come le sue performance sono comparabili con quelle delle solu-zioni classiche.
Sono stati anche approfonditi i filtri adattativi basati sull’algoritmo di Kalman, come alternativa a quelli basati sul FxLMS. L’approccio di Kalman può risolvere alcuni problemi di questi ultimi, come la convergenza lenta e la sensibilità alla diffusione degli autovalori, al costo di requisiti computazionali maggiori. Tuttavia, le varianti a banda stretta riducono i tap necessari e risultano ancora competitive in una ricca serie di scenari, come quelli automotive. Varie soluzioni sono infine presentate e la loro efficacia è comparata con quella delle controparti basate sul FxLMS.<br>Acoustical comfort in automotive environments is a relevant issue. Conversations among passengers can be assisted by suitable amplification systems, but acoustic coupling might arise feedback and echo effects. Speech intelligibility may result ruined and high channel gains may lead to Larsen effect. Acoustic feedback and echo cancellation methods are needed to keep the system stable.
In this work, an hybrid HW/SW Test Bench for AFC algorithms, based on TMS320C6748 processor, is proposed and tested with PEM-AFROW and Suppressor-PEM solutions. Several experiments confirmed the framework suitability under diverse acoustic conditions.
Also Dual-Channel scenario has been taken into account, where echo effects must be consid-ered as well. Voice-activity and double-talk detectors have been also included. Performed com-puter simulations have shown the approach effectiveness.
Comfort in automotive is also degraded by noises. Active noise control solutions can improve sound quality by playing a proper anti-noise signal through secondary sources. Narrow-band ap-proaches have been widely investigated because of their simplicity and effectiveness cancelling tonal noises. In this work a robust algorithm based on narrow-band FxLMS is also proposed. Simulations show proposed algorithm behaviours under stress conditions, proving that its per-formance is comparable with classic narrow-band one.
Adaptive filters based on Kalman control theory has been investigated as well, as an alternative for FxLMS-based algorithms. Kalman approach can overcome some problems of the latter ones, like slow convergence and high sensitivity to the eigenvalue spread at the cost of higher computational requirements. However, narrow-band variants significantly reduce needed taps and still results competitive in a rich series of scenarios, like automotive ones. Various possible solutions are finally presented and their effectiveness are compared to each own FxLMS-based counterpart.

Costs related to inventory are usually a significant amount of the company’s total assets. Despite this, companies in general don’t pay a lot of interest in it, even if the benefits from effective inventory are obvious when it comes to less tied up capital, increased customer satisfaction and better working environment. Permobil AB, Timrå is in an intense period when it comes to revenue and growth. The production unit is aiming for an increased output of 30 % in the next two years. To make this possible the company has to improve their way to distribute and handle material,The purpose of the study is to provide useful information and concrete proposals for action, so that the company can build a strategy for an effective and sustainable solution when it comes to inventory management. Alternative methods for making forecasts are suggested, in order to reach a more nuanced perception of different articles, and how they should be managed. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used in order to give specially selected persons the chance to decide criteria for how the article should be valued. The criteria they agreed about were annual volume value, lead time, frequency rate and purchase price. The other method that was proposed was a two-dimensional model where annual volume value and frequency was the criteria that specified in which class an article should be placed. Both methods resulted in significant changes in comparison to the current solution. For the spare part inventory different forecast methods were tested and compared with the current solution. It turned out that the current forecast method performed worse than both moving average and exponential smoothing with trend. The small sample of ten random articles is not big enough to reject the current solution, but still the result is a reason enough, for the company to control the quality of the forecasts.<br>Kostnader kopplade till lagerverksamheten är ofta en betydande del av företagets totala omsättning. Trots detta är generella intresset för effektiv lagerstyrning lågt, trots dokumenterade fördelar som mindre bundet kapital, ökad kundservice och bättre arbetsmiljö. Permobil AB, Timrå är inne i en tillväxtfas och siktar på att öka sin produktion med mer än 30 % inom två år. För att möjliggöra detta behöver företaget förbättra sin lagerstyrning och utveckla sitt sätt att distribuera material, dels till eftermarknad och dels till sin egen montering. Syftet med studien är att bistå företaget i dess önskan att skapa en effektivare lagerstyrning med avseende på kvalitet och kostnad. Alternativa metoder att klassificera artiklar föreslogs, för att skapa en mer nyanserad bild av en artikels karaktär och hur den ska styras. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) användes för att ge utvalda nyckelpersoner en chans att bestämma kriterier för hur en artikel ska bedömas. Dessa kriterier var årligt volymvärde, ledtid, uttagsfrekvens och inköpspris. Den andra metoden som föreslogs var en tvådimensionell klassificering där årligt volymvärde och uttagsfrekvens delar in befintliga artiklar i nio klasser med olika prioritering. Båda metoder gav upphov till betydande förändringar i jämförelse med den nuvarande metoden. För reservdelslagret testades alternativa prognosmetoder, för att jämföra med den nuvarande. Det visade sig att de båda metoderna glidande medelvärde och exponentiell utjämning med trend presterade bättre än den befintliga metoden. Stickprovet på 10 slumpmässigt utvalda artiklar är för litet för att förkasta nuvarande sätt att prognosticera, men det finns skäl att upprätta rutiner för kvalitetskontroll för att säkra en hög nivå på framtida prognoser.

This thesis combines histories of the implementation of ABC Online (the website of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Australia's largest national Public Service Broadcaster) with the political philosophies of Foucault, and of Deleuze and Guattari. Following the Deleuzian argument that institutions of enclosure are in crisis because they exist in between diagrams of the disciplinary and control societies, the thesis tests each of the Foucauldian diagrams of discipline, governmentality and control against the ABC as Public Service Broadcaster. It explores issues such as which ABC strategies belong to which diagram, and the ways in which changes in communications technologies altered governing rationales of these diagrams at the ABC. The thesis uses the implementation of ABC Online to explore the idea of the ABC in the late 1990s as operating in between social diagrams. One way of examining this 'in between-ness' is to use the Public Service Broadcasting idea as an instance of arboreal thinking and the internet idea as rhizomic. The thesis employs that model to argue that Public Service Broadcasting as it is practised is not merely an arboreal assemblage, and that actual implementations of the internet are more than merely rhizomic assemblages. The thesis details some of the earliest relations between broadcasting and the internet at the ABC, and describes the relations between rhizomic and arboreal images of the ABC at particular sites and in various discourses. This examination concludes that both ways of imagining the ABC - the arboreal and the rhizomic - have been essential to the success of ABC Online. While the position of the ABC in between social diagrams caused a sense of crisis, ABC Online was in fact successful largely because of its position in between social diagrams. Not only was ABC Online remarkably successful in its first five years, but it was successful in ways which could not be accommodated in such documents as the ABC Charter. The public silences of ABC Online both allowed it to thrive, and conversely supported arboreal stratified ways of defending the ABC. Defences of the ABC that used arboreal thinking as a rhetorical strategy continued to dominate public discussion of the ABC, despite the successes of contrary examples in practice. One such example was the successful implementation of Radio Australia Online at a time when the Mansfield Review sought to limit the scope of the ABC to domestic free-to-air broadcasting. When some ABC Online practices were publicised in relation to the proposed Telstra deal, the resultant controversy concentrated on the non-commercial/commercial boundary at the ABC. The controversy also highlighted fears that the Online environment may alter the ethical relations between the ABC and its publics. In particular, the ethical goals of independence and integrity were perceived as being under threat in the World Wide Web environment. These goals were further problematised within the organisation by the demands of interactive subsites. These subsites demonstrated an altered ethical relation between the ABC and its user in the online environment of the control society.

Inicialmente, realiza-se uma breve revisão teórica com o propósito de evidenciar as principais deficiências dos métodos de custeio tradicionais como ferramentas de apoio à tomada de decisões e, ao mesmo tempo, destacar a importância do ABC, para tal fim. Com o propósito de justificar a elaboração de uma proposta alternativa de custeio, analisa-se o atual sistema de custos e verifica-se sua inadequação como instrumento de cálculo de custos e de apoio à tomada de decisão. Realiza-se análise dos custos da referida unidade, referente ao período de janeiro a agosto de 2000, constata-se que seus custos indiretos correspondem, em média, a 51% do custo total. Constata-se, também, que estes custos comprometem, em média, 63% de sua receita operacional mensal e que as despesas das principais seções apresentam acentuada tendência de crescimento no período. Diante de tais constatações, realiza-se levantamento de dados junto à referida unidade operativa e identificam-se as principais atividades e recursos. Em decorrência de significativa incidência de compartilhamento de recursos, especialmente de mão-de-obra, elabora-se um modelo básico de rastreamento de custos de pessoal. A partir do levantamento, apontam-se 26 atividades e respectivos direcionadores de recursos, elabora-se o dicionário de atividades e demonstra-se o cálculo dos custos das atividades do Núcleo Administrativo Financeiro. Na seqüência, definem-se os direcionadores de atividades, calcula-se o custo por medida de saída do citado núcleo, demonstra-se, esquematicamente, como os custos das atividades são atribuídos aos produtos e como os custos dos recursos diretos e das atividades do Núcleo Administrativo Financeiro são relacionados a um curso de excel. Também demonstra-se a sistemática de cálculo da lucratividade de produtos e destacam-se os benefícios que, eventualmente, seriam obtidos com a implantação do sistema proposto, cujos principais são: acurácia dos custos dos cursos, indispensável para racionalização e precificação de cursos; visibilidade das oportunidades de redução de custos; apoio à redefinição de processos e auxílio a decisões relacionadas ao fornecimento de cursos para turmas de determinadas instituições (cursos fechados)

L’utilisation de thérapies ciblées afin d’augmenter la fenêtre thérapeutique des traitements, notamment en oncologie, se développe de plus en plus. Les immunoconjugués font partie de l’arsenal de ces thérapies ciblées. En effet, il s’agit de vectoriser, grâce à un anticorps ciblant un antigène surexprimé sur les cellules cancéreuses, une molécule hautement cytotoxique comme les dérivés d’auristatines. L’espèce résultant est appelée antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). Ce faisant, l’efficacité du composé est augmentée et les potentiels effets secondaires sont limités. Plusieurs technologies permettant l’accroche de l’agent cytotoxique à l’anticorps existent avec différents dégrés d’homogénéité du produit final et différents niveaux de difficultés de mise en œuvre. De nos jours, les avancées technologiques permettent de concevoir des immunoconjugués (ADCs) présentant un chargement en molécule cytotoxique (DAR, drug-to-antibody ratio) contrôlé du point de vue du nombre et de la position (régio-spécifique)<br>The use of targeted therapies in order to increase the therapeutic window of treatments, especially in oncology, is growing. Immunoconjugates are part of the arsenal of these targeted therapies. Indeed, they aim at delivering, thanks to an antibody directed against overexpressed cancer cell antigens, a highly cytotoxic molecule like auristatins derivatives. The resulting species is called an antibody-drug-conjugate (ADC). By doing so, efficacy of the compound is increased and potential side-effects are limited. Several technologies for grafting the cytotoxic agent to the antibody exist with different levels of homogeneity of the final compound and different levels of difficulty of implementation. Nowadays, technological breakthroughs permit the design of immunoconjugates (ADCs) displaying a controlled drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) in terms of quantity and position (site-specific)

Streptococcus pneumoniae est capable de transformer naturellement. Pour transformer les bacteries doivent etre dans un etat physiologique particulier appele competence. La competence est une forme de differenciation cellulaire reversible qui apparait au cours de la phase exponentielle de croissance. Son developpement s'accompagne d'un changement global du metabolisme cellulaire, et s'effectue de maniere synchrone pour l'ensemble des cellules d'une culture. Il est induit par l'accumulation extracellulaire d'une pheromone, le csp (competence stimulting peptide). Il est egalement module par des changements d'environnement tels que des modifications de concentration de certains ions, de temperature ou de ph. Afin d'identifier des genes impliques dans le phenomene de transformation, une mutagenese a ete realisee par insertion dans le chromosome d'un gene de resistance a l'erythromycine. Elle a permis de generer un mutant presentant une deficience pour un test de transformation en milieu gelose. L'analyse de la region mutee a revele une organisation typique des operons codant pour des transporteurs de type abc (atp-binding-cassette). Ce locus, appele adc (adhesine competence), presente des homologies avec des operons codant pour des adhesines de streptocoques. Un des genes du locus adc, le gene adca, coderait pour une lipoproteine adca comportant un site de fixation potentiel des metaux. Adca, avec quatorze autres lipoproteines, dont les adhesines homologues, pourraient constituer une nouvelle famille de proteines extracytoplasmiques affines du substrat, la famille 9, specifique du transport des metaux. L'analyse de la croissance d'un mutant adc en milieu synthetique gelose a revele la necessite de zinc pour une croissance optimale des cellules mutees. L'addition de zinc ameliore le taux de croissance et la transformabilite du mutant adc dans le milieu liquide c. Le zinc, dont l'exigence pour la transformation de s.

Full textAbstract:
Buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris ) has been established in Uluṟu‐Kata Tjuta National Park since 1968. To date, the influence of buffel grass on the Park's flora and fauna has been largely unassessed. The objectives of this study were to determine if buffel grass dominates vegetation communities at the base of Uluṟu and if buffel grass habitats are associated with lower reptile and amphibian species richness than endemic vegetation communities. We used vegetation transects to measure the amount of buffel grass and genera of endemic vegetation at 26 sampling locations around the base of Uluṟu. The vegetation survey data were paired with pitfall trap data from reptile and amphibian captures at the same sampling locations. Indicator species analysis and non‐metric multidimensional scaling were used to analyse the vegetation and herpetofaunal community data. Our analyses determined five distinct vegetation communities around Uluṟu. At the base of Uluṟu, buffel grass dominated half of sampled areas and the rest of the inselberg's base was dominated by Themeda grasses. Buffel grass habitats had significantly higher herpetofaunal species richness than the Themeda habitats that dominated other areas at Uluṟu's base. Herpetofauna species richness in buffel grass‐dominated habitats was also significantly higher than all vegetation communities except for Triodia‐dominated habitats. These observations do not directly indicate that buffel grass presence promotes higher species richness of reptiles and amphibians since the observed patterns may be driven by factors such as proximity to breeding sites and abiotic variables not directly related to the grass itself.

The resource perspective has received much less attention than other business process (BP) perspectives, e.g., control flow. This thesis focuses on human resource management in BPs, and addresses challenges related to resource specification and resource analysis. In particular, it introduces novel techniques for resource specification, which rely on a new resource selection language called RAL; and it provides automated support for a set of analysis operations at design time and at run time based on the formal semantics of RAL defined in description logics (DLs), by leveraging existing DL reasoners. All the contributions have been validated.

Ao comparar a visibilidade da figura feminina na tragédia do período clássico (508 – 338 a.C) com o espaço destinado às mulheres concretas da Atenas do mesmo período, deparamo-nos com um intrigante contraste, já que a participação destas na vida pública era restrita aos cerimoniais religiosos. Amplamente representada na tradição literária antiga - nos versos de um amplo leque de poetas - a figura de Helena possibilita múltiplas interpretações a respeito de seu caráter e culpabilidade nos eventos desencadeadores da Guerra de Tróia. Dos três tragediógrafos atenienses cujas composições foram significativamente preservadas, Eurípides foi o único que pôs em cena a rainha espartana, nas peças Troianas (415 a.C), Helena (412 a.C) e Orestes (408 a.C). Eurípides teve duas características bastante contraditórias marcando sua composição: a oratória, instrumento cívico masculino (uma voz); e a representação do feminino, corpo ausente do espaço cívico (uma realidade muda). Pensando na sistematização do discurso como um instrumento cívico que entra em destaque no século V a.C. em Atenas, assim como nas representações cômicas e trágicas - outro elemento típico da identidade cívica da pólis - podemos ver em Eurípides um “laboratório” rico para discutir o paradoxo da representação do feminino no espaço trágico. Nessa dissertação, Helena é uma amostra da representação poliédrica do feminino na tragédia, direcionando a atenção precisamente para o ethos da personagem, ou seja, para a imagem de si que ela projeta no seu discurso nas três peças em que é representada por Eurípides.<br>Comparing the visibility of the female figure in tragedy during the Classic period (508-338 B.C) with the space for the concrete women of Athens in the same period, we come across an interesting contrast, since their participation in public life was restricted to religious ceremonies. Widely represented in ancient literary tradition – in the lines of many poets – Helen‟s figure creates multiple interpretations of her character and blame for the events that triggered the Trojan War. Among the three Athenian tragedians whose compositions were significantly preserved, Euripides was the one who placed the Spartan queen on the scene: in Trojan Women (415 B.C), Helen (412 B.C) and Orestes (408 B.C). Euripides had two rather contradictory characteristics marking his composition: oratory, a male civic tool (a voice); and the female representation, missing body of civic space (a voiceless reality). Thinking about the systematization of speech as civic tool that gets highlighted in the fifth century B.C. in Athens, as well as in comic and tragic representations (an other typical element of the polis civic identity), we can see in Euripides a rich “laboratory” to discuss the paradox of the female representation in tragic space. In this dissertation, Helen is a sample of the female polyhedral representation in tragedy, driving our attention directly to the ethos of Helen, in other words, to the self-image that she projects through her speech in the three plays in wich she appears represented in Euripides.

Full textAbstract:
This study is an attempt to highlight a few aspects of the Islamic revival and reawakening in Bangladesh in the period between 1905 to 1975. Being once part of the British Empire, Bangladesh was bequeathed secular education and secular government. In pre-colonial period Islam commanded great respect in as much as Islamic education and Islamic law are concerned. With the coming of the British, the role of the <i>Sharf'ah and 'Ulama </i>diminished. Our main concentration in this study is devoted to the role of traditional <i>'Ulama </i>who as true disciples of Shah Wali Ullah Al Dehlawi, pioneered his revival mission in the twentieth century. Particular attention has been devoted to the activities of four major <i>daw'ah</i> movements (Islamic missionary), namely, the <i>'Ulama</i> of Deoband Seminary; <i>Jama'at Tabligh</i> (an off-shoot of Deoband); <i>Jami'yyat-i-'Ulama and Nizam-i-Islam</i> party; and <i>Jama'at-i-Islami</i> of Abul 'ala Mawdudi; which have the support of general muslims in the country. Responses to these movements, which have come from various quarters within the Bangali milieu, are also discussed. In this context, the United struggles of 'Ulama' for establishment of Islamic rule and Islamization of the constitution were highlighted. Further, some discussion is given to the problems arises out of the differences of opinion between different sections of <i>'Ulama</i> which have in a way hampered the smooth progress of Islamic <i>daw'ah</i>. In the light of the problems, we advance some modest suggestions deemed practicable for consideration of all groups. We also consider briefly the rise of Bengali nationalism. The nature of Islamic movements in the pre-independence and the position of Islamic movements in the post-independent Bangledesh until the late 70s.

Full textAbstract:
<p>I denna rapport redogörs för en implementering av fusion mellan kortdistanssensorer. Syftet med denna implementering är att erhålla Stop & Go-funktionalitet till den adaptiva farthållaren som idag finns som tillval i Scanias lastbilar. Adaptiv farthållning, ACC, är en funktion som automatiskt anpassar fordonets hastighet ifall detta kommer ikapp ett annat fordon som färdas långsammare än den inställda hastigheten. Scanias system använder sig idag av en långdistanssensor som ser långt men har smalt synfält. Genom att komplettera denna med kortdistanssensorer, som ser kort men brett, kan önskvärt synfält i närområdet för att säkert kunna implementera Stop & Go-funktionen uppnås. Sensorfusion bygger på principen att två eller fler sensorer som ser samma sak ger en mer korrekt bild av verkligheten än en enskild. Fusionen kan genomföras på många olika sätt. I rapporten beskrivs tre metoder övergripligt; Bayesiska nätverk, auktionsalgoritmen samt Gating. I implementeringen används gatingmetoden.</p><p>Initialt implementeras en målspårningsalgoritm med kalmanfilter. Efter uppdatering av sensormjukvaran väljs dock denna bort eftersom sensorernas interna målspårning då anses som tillräcklig. En modell med sensorfusionen och målselekteringen byggs i Simulink och programmeras sedan in i en hårdvaruenhet. Syftet med detta är att kunna utvärdera funktionen i ett prototypfordon. Inledningsvis rapporteras enbart korrelerade mål från modellen. För mer kontinuerlig målföljning, främst i kurvor, implementeras därefter en algoritm som även tar hänsyn till enskilda sensorers observationer. Dessa accpeteras dock först efter en viss valideringstid eftersom denna information har lägre konfidens än korrelerade mål.</p><p>Provkörningar visar att målföljningen fungerar väl. En stor svårighet har varit att sålla bort stillastående mål från rörliga, främst i låga farter. Detta eftersom sensorernas hastighetsangivelse har låg precision vilket medför att ett stillastående mål kan rapporteras som ett långsamt rörligt.</p><br><p>In this thesis report an implementation of fusion between short range radars is described. The purpose of this implementation is to obtain Stop & Go functionality for the adaptive cruise control which is offered as an option in today’s Scania trucks. Adaptive cruise control, ACC, is a feature that automatically adapts the vehicle speed if it should catch up to another vehicle moving slower than the desired set speed. For this application Scania today use a long range sensor that has a long but narrow field of view. By complementing this sensor with short range sensors, which have short but wide fields of view, the desired field of view in the short range area can be obtained. This is necessary in order to be able to safely implement the Stop & Go functionality. Sensor fusion is based on the principle that two or more sensors overlooking the same area give a more accurate impression of reality than a single one. The fusion can be conducted in several ways. In the report three different methods are briefly described; Bayesian Networks, the Auction Algorithm and Gating. In the implementation the gating method is applied.</p><p>Initially a target tracking algorithm using Kalman filter is implemented. However, after software updates in the short range sensors this algorithm is no longer used. This is because the improved tracking made internally by the sensors is considered to be sufficient, hence making an external tracking algorithm redundant. The sensor fusion and the target selection are implemented in a Simulink model which is later programmed into a hardware unit. The purpose of the latter is to be able to evaluate the functionality in a prototype vehicle. Initially, only associated targets are reported from the model. In order to obtain a more continuous target tracking, mainly while driving in curves, observations made only by single sensors are also considered. However, these measurements have lower level of confidence than the associated targets. Therefore these measurements first have to be validated for a certain period of time before they are approved.</p><p>Test runs indicate that the target tracking works as intended. One major difficulty has been to separate stationary targets from slow moving ones, especially in low speeds. This is due to the fact that the sensors’ speed measurements are fairly inaccurate. Therefore a stationary target could be reported as a slow moving one.</p>

Den adaptiva farthållaren anpassar det egna fordonets hastighet inte bara till en förinställd hastighet utan även till framförvarande fordons hastighet.

Det andra nätverket använder sig av två radarenheter, den ursprungliga samt en likadan enhet till, vilket resulterar i ett bredare synfält. Nätverket avgör vilka mål hos respektive radar som kan anses vara samma matchade mål. Informationen kan användas för att öka redundansen i systemet samt för att upptäcka mål tidigare än förut.</p><br><p>By fusing data from different sensors a result can be achieved that is worth more than the data from each sensor by itself.

Another example is intelligent fusion, cognitive methods intending to mimic the human decision process. Suitable data is data at a high level.</p><p>Two solutions, for two different sensor sets, are proposed. Both solutions are made out of Bayesian networks. The first one fuses data from the existing radar unit with data from a camera which detects lane markings. The results show that lane changes can be detected earlier thanks to the fusion. The second network uses two radar sensors of the same kind as the first, resulting in a wider field of view. The network decides which ones of each radars targets that are the same matching targets. This information could be used to increase the redundancy of the system and to detect targets earlier.</p>

Full textAbstract:
A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs) restrict the action of the broad-specificity cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) to discrete subcellular locations. The highresolution crystal structure of the docking and dimerisation (D/D) domain of the RIIa regulatory Bubunit of PKA in complex with the high-affinity anchoring peptide AKAP-IS explains the molecular basis of AKAP specificity for PKA regulatory subunits. AKAPIS folds into an amphipathic a-helix that engages an essentially preformed shallow groove on the surface of the RUa dimer D/D domains. Conserved AKAP aiiphatic residues dominate interactions to RUa at the predominantly hydrophobic interface, whereas polar residues are important in conferring regulatory subunit isoform specificity. Structural information for the AKAP family was previously limited to studies of the PKA-AKAP interface. To address this deficiency, a bioinformatic screen of AKAPs was performed to identify domains within AKAPs that might be suitable for structural investigation. A central domain in AKAP18 was identified, and its crystal structure was solved. The domain is structurally similar to 2H phosphoesterase enzymes, which catalyse the hydrolysis of cyclic nucleotides, with a central groove at the base of which two His-x-Thr motifs are positioned. The domain binds specifically to 5' AMP/CMP, with a dissociation constant for AMP in the physiological range, and the molecular basis for nucleotide specificity has been established. No catalytic activity was associated with the domain, so it may function as an AMP sensor. AKAP79 is a prototypical mammalian scaffold protein, which nucleates mUlti-protein kinase-phosphatase complexes, and localises at the cell membrane under the control of calmodulin. A system for expression and purification of AKAP79 has been developed enabling sufficient production of pure AKAP79 complexes for structural and biochemical investigation. Imaging of an AKAP79-PKA-calmodulin complex by negative-staining transmission electron microscopy indicates that the first three-dimen'sional reconstruction of this complex may be possible in the near future.

Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2014.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (pages 205-[208]).<br>Technology scaling poses challenges in designing analog circuits because of the decrease in intrinsic gain and reduced swing. An alternative to using high-gain amplifiers in the implementation of switched-capacitor circuits has been proposed that replaces the amplifier with a current source and a comparator. The technique has been generalized to zero-crossing based circuits (ZCBC). It has been demonstrated but not limited to single-ended and differential pipelined ADCs, with effective number of bits (ENOB) ranging from 8 bits to 11 bits at sampling rates from 10MS/s to 100MS/s. The purpose of this project was to explore the use of the ZCBC technique for high-precision ADCs. The goal of the project is a 13-bit pipelined ADC operating at up to 100MS/s. A two-phase hybrid ZCBC operation is used to improve the power-linearity tradeoff of the A/D conversion. The first phase approximates the final output value, while the second phase allows the output to settle to its accurate value. Since the output is allowed to settle in the second phase, the currents through capacitors decay, permitting higher accuracy and power-supply rejection compared with standard ZCBCs. Linearization techniques for the ramp waveforms are implemented. Linear ramp waveforms require less correction in the second phase for given linearity, thus allowing faster operation. Techniques for improving linearity beyond using a cascoded current source are explored; these techniques include output pre-sampling and bidirectional output operation. Current steering is used to minimize the overall delay contributing to the first phase error, known as overshoot error. Overshoot error reduction at the end of the first phase improves the linearity requirements of the final phase. Automated background overshoot reduction is introduced though not included on the prototype ADC. A prototype ADC was designed in 1V, 65nm CMOS process to demonstrate the techniques introduced in this work. The prototype ADC did not meet the intended design goal and achieved 11-bit ENOB at 21MS/s and SFDR of 81dB. The main performance limitations are lack of overshoot reduction in the third pipeline stage in the prototype ADC and mid-range errors, introduced by the bidirectional ramp linearization technique, limiting the attainable output accuracy.<br>by Mariana Markova.<br>Ph.

Full textAbstract:
In the period between 1993-1998 a vision was presented of an Automated Highway System developed under a contract naming Virginia Tech one of the three ITS Research Centers of Excellence in the United States by the Federal Highway Administration. The AHS envisioned would consist of a guideway constructed in the rights-of-way of the Interstate Highway System which would utilized magnetic levitation ("maglev") to propel closely-space, individual vehicles at high speeds with full longitudinal and lateral control. In this dissertation the system architecture is described in detail.
The system architecture is organized according to system structural, system operational, and vehicle subsystem technological elements. The structural aspects are concerned with the decision making capability allocated between a vehicle and the guideway, the characteristics of the control and sensing equipment contained within the guideway, the traveling unit configuration, and certain of the vehicle's structural and equipment considerations. The operational aspects are concerned with vehicle entrainment policy, system fleet mixture, network type and control functions, and guideway lane separation requirements. The vehicle subsystem and the vehicle longitudinal and lateral control subsystem.
The operational architecture concentrates on developing and evaluating strategies for forming platoons of vehicles on the guideway since the average platoon sizes determine the practical capacity of the guideway as well as the safety of operation. It is instructive to review how platoons form naturally on conventional highways as a prelude to developing a strategy for forming platoon on the AHS Maglev Guideway. A novel, non-linear car-following model called "car maneuvering" is explored by defining the stimuli on the right-hand side of the model in terms of several vehicles ahead of the response vehicle. In order to add still more realism in developing a strategy for platoon formation in a guideway under automatic control, an additional spacing dependent term is introduced to achieve a "magnetic coupling headway" between platooned vehicles. Once vehicles are magnetically coupled, the desired intraplatoon headway is maintained through attraction and repulsion.
In this dissertation the term "architecture" is interpreted in the broadest possible sense based on the assumption that any transportation system intended to serve society throughout the 21st Century and beyond must address a hierarchy of goals and issues ranging from the strategic (sustainable development) to the tactical (the concept of operations) and including the in-between (interfacing with the existing transportation system). In the past, transportation planning, policy, investment and operating decisions have been made in isolation from each other with incomplete information inputs from a broad base of disciplines and sectors, without a synthesizing instrumentality. A new approach is described to promote the best informed decisions governing planning and management. The approach features a realistic framework for allocating public sector-private sector effort, an instrumentality for generating the knowledge needed to conceive and implement the new transportation paradigm, and a strategic vision for rallying support.
The new approach to the problem begins with a strategic vision for society's AHS infrastructure. We believe that the strategic vision must be based on the concept of "sustainable development." To affect this new strategic vision, higher budgets will be a necessary, but not a sufficient condition. A fundamental Decision Support System (DSS) with knowledge bases with contributions from the braid spectrum of science and engineering disciplines, and a methodology based on system dynamics capable of synthesizing these contributions is proposed.
The AHS Maglev Alternative is compared to a "Do-Nothing" Alternative and a "Traditional Expansion" Alternative using user and nonuser benefit analyses. The advantages of AHS Maglev are seen to be overwhelming. Moreover, the ability of AHS Maglev to alleviate airport congestion by reducing short and medium range of flights, and to serve as a structuring device for rational population distribution is shown.<br>Ph.

Analog-to-Digital converters, ADCs, introduces the possibility of performing digital computation on real world analog signals by being the interface between thetwo domains. The demands on the performance of the ADC is steadily increasing, which also comes with an increased difficulty of actually being able to guarantee the functionality of the device. Therefore, the art of estimating the characteristics of the ADC has flourished over the years where researchers has sugested ways of performing different test procedures to arrive at the most accurate method suited for a specific application. In this thesis, a measurement device containing an ADC is the subject of investigation. Some of the static characteristics of the ADC were estimated by isolating the ADC in the circuit and putting it through a set of tests developed in a lab environment and analyzing the resulting data offline. By then also carrying out measurements of the whole system, the amount of input referred noise added by the ADC could be estimated.

Full textAbstract:
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) is a sensor protein, activated by aromatic chemical species for transcriptionally regulating xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes. AHR is also known to be involved in a variety of pathogenesis such as cancer, diabetes mellitus, cirrhosis, asthma, etc. The AHR signaling induced by xenobiotics has been intensively studied whereas its physiological role in the absence of xenobiotics is poorly understood. Despite a number of ligands of AHR have been reported thus far, further applications are still hampered by the lack of specificity and/or the partially agonistic activity. Thus, a pure AHR antagonist is needed for deciphering the AHR cryptic as well as potential therapeutic agent. The Proteolysis Targeting Chimera (PROTAC) is a bi-functional small molecule containing a ligand and proteolysis inducer. PROTAC recruits the target protein to proteolysis machinery and elicits proteolysis. Thus far, a number of PROTAC have been prepared and demonstrated to effectively induce the degradation of targeted protein in cultured cells, validating PROTAC as a useful research tool. In the present study, PROTACs based on apigenin was prepared and demonstrated to induce the degradation of AHR, providing the proof of concept. To improve activity, a synthetic structure, CH-223191, was optimized for antagonistic activity by positional scanning identifying several AHR antagonists. PROTACs based on the optimal structure were prepared and assessed their biological activity. The products and synthetic scheme described hereby will be helpful for the further understanding on AHR biology as well as for developing therapeutic agents targeting AHR.

Full textAbstract:
In eukaryotischen Zellen sind die Lipidspezies häufig asymmetrisch zwischen den Hälften der Plasmamembran verteilt. Insbesondere Phosphatidylserin (PS) weist oft eine ausgeprägte transversale Asymmetrie auf, da es fast ausschliesslich auf die innere Hälfte der Plasmamembran beschränkt ist. In den letzten Jahren wurden mehrere Proteine diskutiert, die Lipide zwischen den Membranhälften transportieren und möglicherweise die transversale Lipidasymmetrie sowie damit verbundene Zelleigenschaften beeinflussen. Im Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Promotion steht der Auswärtstransport fluoreszierender (C6-NBD-) Lipid-Analoga und endogener Lipide durch das Multidrug Resistance 1 P-Glycoprotein (MDR1 Pgp), das der ATP Binding Cassette (ABC) Transporter Superfamilie angehört. Interessanter Weise wird für MDR1 Pgp eine ungewöhnlich breite Substratspezifität angenommen. Das anionische Lipid PS war hier von besonderem Interesse, obgleich es in vorhergehenden Arbeiten nicht als MDR1 Pgp Substrat betrachtet wurde. Der Auswärtstransport von Phosphatidylcholin-, Phosphatidylethanolamin-, Glucosylceramid- und Sphingomyelin-Analoga durch MDR1 Pgp konnte in einer humanen Magenkarzinomlinie (EPG85-257), die MDR1 überexprimiert, mittels Fluoreszenzspektroskopie bestätigt werden. Zudem legt die verringerte Akkumulation von Diacylglycerol- und Ceramid-Analoga den Transport dieser Lipidspezies durch MDR1 Pgp nahe. Im Anschluß an die intrazelluläre Markierung mit C6-NBD-PS mittels eines neuen Verfahrens konnte der signifikant erhöhte Auswärtstransport dieses Analogons in MDR1 überexprimierenden Zellen durch Verwendung spezifischer Inhibitoren MDR1 Pgp zugeschrieben werden. In flusscytometrischen Versuchen war die Exponierung von endogenem PS auf der äusseren Membranhälfte von MDR1 überexprimierenden Zellen signifikant höher als in Kontrollzellen. Verringerung der PS-Exponierung durch einen Inhibitor von MDR1 Pgp deutet auf den Transport von endogenem PS durch MDR1 Pgp hin. Zusätzlich wurde hier der Transport von C6-NBD-PS in vier weiteren Zellinien mit verschiedener Spezies- und Gewebezugehörigkeit charakterisiert, die unterschiedliche Mengen an MDR1 Pgp synthetisieren. Wie Experimente in einer BCRP überexprimierenden EPG85-257-Sublinie nahelegen, ist ausser MDR1 Pgp möglicherweise ebenfalls der ABC Halb-Transporter Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP) am Transport von C6-NBD-PS und an der verstärkten Exponierung von endogenem PS beteiligt.<br>In eukaryotic cells, the lipid species are frequently distributed asymmetrically between the plasma membrane leaflets. Phosphatidylserine (PS), in particular, often exhibits a distinct transverse asymmetry, being restricted almost exclusively to the inner leaflet. In the past years, several proteins were suggested to transport lipids between the leaflets of a membrane, and to potentially influence transverse lipid asymmetry and related cell properties. This thesis focuses on outward transport of fluorescent (C6-NBD-) lipid analogs and endogenous lipids by the Multidrug Resistance 1 P-Glycoprotein (MDR1 Pgp), a member of the ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily. Interestingly, MDR1 Pgp has been suggested to exhibit an unusually broad substrate specificity. Here, the anionic PS was of particular concern, although previously reported not to be an MDR1 Pgp substrate. In a human gastric carcinoma cell line (EPG85-257) overexpressing MDR1, outward transport of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, glucosylceramide and sphingomyelin analogs via MDR1 Pgp was confirmed using fluorescence spectroscopy. In addition, decreased accumulation of analogs of diacylglycerol and ceramide suggest MDR1 Pgp mediated transport of these lipid species. Upon intracellular labelling with C6-NBD-PS using a novel approach, significantly increased outward transport of this analog in MDR1 overexpressing cells could be attributed to MDR1 Pgp by employing specific inhibitors. In a flow cytometry setup, the exposure of endogenous PS on the outer plasma membrane leaflet was significantly elevated in MDR1 overexpressing cells compared to controls. Reduction of PS exposure by an MDR1 Pgp inhibitor suggests transport of endogenous PS by MDR1 Pgp. Transport of C6-NBD-PS was furthermore characterized here in four additional cell lines of different species and tissue origin with varying synthesis levels of MDR1 Pgp. Besides MDR1 Pgp, the ABC half-size transporter Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP) is possibly also involved in transport of C6-NBD-PS and in increased exposure of endogenous PS, as found in a BCRP overexpressing EPG85-257 subline.

Full textAbstract:
<p>Flash ADCs with resolutions from 3 to 5 bits have been implemented on a transistor level. These ADCs are to be incorporated as the backend of a higher resolution Pipeline ADC. The motivation for this work has been to see how much the resolution of this backend can be increased before the power consumption becomes to high. This is beneficial in Pipeline ADCs because the number of Pipeline stages is reduced so that the throughput delay of the Pipeline ADC is also reduced. All the Flash ADCs are implemented with the same Capacitive Interpolation-technique. This technique was found to have several benificial properties as opposed to other power saving techniques applied to Flash ADCs in a project assignment done prior to this thesis. The results of the simulations show that the resolution of the backend can be increased to 5 bits both in terms of power and other static and dynamic performance parameters.</p>
