Full textDenne oppgaven tar for seg temaet e-læring, og spesielt samarbeidslæring over internett. Gjennom å utvikle store deler av et komplett e-læringssystem, har vi sett på teknologbruk og funksjoner i praksis. Den aller største delen av prosjektet har vært å implementere dette systemet, men i den forbindelse har vi også brukt mye tid på planlegging og refleksjon. Dette har gitt oss mange erfaringer med hvordan e-læring kan og bør legges opp. Vi har spesielt fokusert på å ta i bruk teknologier som i liten grad er utnyttet i e-læring i dag. Samarbeidsfunksjoner har stått mye i fokus, og vi har sett på måter å gjøre både elev-lærer- og elev-elev-interaksjonen over internett bedre. Særlig gjelder dette bruk av synkron kommunikasjon. Vi har også sett en del på personlige verktøy og systemet vårt som en helhetlig IT-løsning for skoler. Det har samtidig vært et mål for oppgaven å øke bredden i e-læring gjennom å forsøke å tilpasse systemet til flere forskjellige undervisningstyper og aldersgrupper. Systemet vårt ble som en del av oppgaven vist frem til et lite utvalg personer, for å få noen tilbakemeldinger på e-læringssystemet vårt. Formålet var å gjennomføre et case study, der vi ser hvordan de løsningene vi har diskutert oss frem til, ble mottatt av andre. Studien er utført i veldig liten skala, og kan i liten grad brukes til å generalisere holdninger til e-læring. Den kan derimot være et utgangspunkt for videre forskning, gjennom å se på de momentene vi prøvde ut og hvilke reaksjoner vi mottok. Resultatet fra testpersonene var overordnet positivt, og vi fikk spesielt god tilbakemelding på at synkron kommunikasjon var ønskelig. Vi har ikke hatt anledning til å legge inn særlig avanserte synkrone funksjoner, men det lille vi hadde med vakte stor interesse. Synkrone kommunikasjonsmetoder ser ut til å være avgjørende for hvor lett det er å samarbeide med andre i systemet. Her er det viktig å føle at det er noen i den andre enden, og den følelsen gir ikke asynkrone metoder i så stor grad. Studien viste videre at vi ikke hadde klart å tilpasse systemet vårt så godt til alle aldersgrupper som vi hadde håpet. Vi ser imidlertid at ved å bruke mer tid på å utvikle det, kan man forholdsvis enkelt forbedre brukervennligheten. Dersom man bare er villig til å ta i bruk det nyeste av teknologi i dag, er det få begrensninger i forhold til hva slags informasjon man kan overføre.

Full textThis project was about develop a concept for next generation weather station and was
assigned by Bushnell, Kansas U.S. The project was appropriate for the students since it
would involve product development with both visual design and engineering. For the
reason that the initiator was located in another country, the students got an offer of being
positioned at the consultant firm; Epsilon in Gothenburg.
This project is about developing an innovative product as the next step of their evolution;
a portable Wi-Fi household appliance that keeps the user up-dated with weather forecasts
as well as news and other desirable info. This next generation weather station shall be
transboundary by offering more than traditional weather forecasts. Through its direct
connection to Internet it shall display and capture customizable data such as news, traffic,
sports (scores, news and highlights), photo and video content to name a few. The user
shall be able to get “data at-a-glance” in a fun user-friendly, low maintenance approach
while keeping the simplicity of the older products.

Full textThe morass of hasty and reckless legislation passed in various countries to deal with the creation and termination of embryonic life shows that few are prepared to deal with exigencies of ectogenesis when it arrives insidiously or abruptly. Moreover, Eastern thought and traditions will conflict with Western ideology with respect to the beginning and maintenance of human life. This thesis suggests that the language, structure and philosophy of the United Kingdom's Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act is well crafted and should be considered as a world-wide paradigm. This thesis also suggests that ectogenesis will mandate that the interests of the developing fetus override notions of reproductive autonomy.

The power requirements of automotive alternators are increasing significantly due to the introduction of new vehicle electrical loads. Moreover, the possible transition to a 42 V electrical system is introducing new concerns regarding the load dump overvoltage transient of alternators. This thesis makes several contributions to the power density, efficiency, and transient performance of future alternators. A comparison and design optimization of four alternator types is conducted to identify the least cost alternator that meets the challenging requirements of future automobiles. Alternator designs with conventional diode rectifiers and switched-mode rectifiers are investigated. It is found that optimized Lundell alternators are capable of meeting the demands of future systems, and that wound field synchronous machines may also be competitive. It is also found that incorporation of a simple switched-mode rectifier enables substantial improvements in designs optimized for their use. The behavior of the Lundell alternator under load dump transient conditions is studied. It is found that rotor eddy currents limit the rate at which the machine can be de-excited to terminate the transient overvoltage. Models for the de-excitation process are developed based on experimental measurements, and new field control circuits are proposed that provide fast field de-excitation.
(cont.) The use of foil field windings in Lundell alternators to improve alternator power density is also explored. Foil field windings are shown to provide higher conductor packing factors than conventional wire wound fields (e.g. 73% as opposed to 64% for a typical wire wound design) and offer improved thermal transfer properties. These advantages are demonstrated to enable significant increases in field ampere turns and achievable alternator output power. However, realizing these advantages requires new field excitation circuits that can deliver high field currents at low voltages, without exceeding the limited current ratings of alternator brushes. Two new field excitation circuits capable of meeting the needs of foil field windings are developed and experimentally demonstrated. The first field excitation circuit is based on the use of a coreless printed circuit board transformer with a rotating secondary for contactless transfer of power to the rotor. A stationary inverter delivers high frequency ac to the transformer primary, and the power received by the transformer secondary is rectified and delivered to the field. This approach eliminates the need for brushes, and their associated wear and current limitations.
(cont.) This rotating transformer topology is designed, built and tested at standstill with a foil wound bobbin. Experimental results demonstrate that a 51% increase in ampere turns on the rotor can be delivered with this approach, which is more than sufficient for practical applications. The second class of field excitation circuits developed in this thesis uses a DC/DC converter on the rotating side to provide a step down in voltage and a step up in current for the foil field. Control information is communicated to the rotating converter to regulate the field. An experimental alternator implementing a foil field winding and this excitation circuit is developed and experimentally validated. Tests at idle speed demonstrate an improvement of 15% in alternator output power, and an approximate increase of 30% in field ampere turns for similar temperature limits. It is anticipated that significantly larger power improvements could be achieved if the alternator stator were redesigned to take advantage of this improved field capability.

Two novel techniques for future CAT system are presented. Transmission descattering is a singleshot method to differentiate unscattered and scattered components of light transmission through a scattering material. Directly-transmitted components travel in a straight line from the light source, while scattered components originate from multiple scattering centers in the volume. Angularly varying scattered light is strategically captured via a lenslet array placed close to the image plane and the unscattered direct component is computed based on separable scattered components. The disadvantage is a reduction in spatial resolution. As an application, the enhanced tomographic reconstruction is demonstrated using estimated direct transmission images. The other technique is single-shot 3D reconstruction of a translucent object. Multiple light sources form images of a translucent object at different projection angles onto a screen. Those images are captured by a single-photo in a coded format via lenslet array. The projection image casted from each light source is separated from each other by a decoding process and in turn the images are combined to reconstruct 3D shape of the translucent object by ART method.

Full textLa comunicación por satélite desempeñará un papel central en el cumplimiento de los requisitos de comunicación 5G de próxima generación. Como cuestión de hecho, la conectividad cualquier momento y lugar no se puede concebir sin la presencia del segmento satelital. De hecho, la industria de la comunicación por satélite no sólo se dirige a los mercados populares, sino también a la alta densas zonas pobladas donde el satélite se convertirá en un elemento esencial para descongestionar la red inalámbrica terrestre. Para entregar el tráfico de datos interactiva de banda ancha, las cargas útiles de satélites están implementando un diagrama de radiación de haces múltiples. El uso de una arquitectura multihaz aporta varias ventajas frente a un único haz de transmisión global. En primer lugar, como se emplea un reflector alimentado matriz, la ganancia de antena a ruido puede aumentar dando lugar a una alta ganancia en el rendimiento alcanzable. En segundo lugar, diferentes símbolos pueden ser enviados simultáneamente a las áreas separadas geográficamente, lo que permite una comunicación multiplexada espacialmente. Por último, pero no menos importante, el ancho de banda disponible puede ser reutilizado en las vigas suficientemente separadas, el aumento de la reutilización del espectro en el área de cobertura global. Cada vez que los diseñadores de sistemas se dirigen el sistema de satélites terabit se reconsideró la arquitectura multihaz mencionado. De hecho, las tasas alcanzables pueden ser extremadamente aumentaron en caso de reutilización de frecuencias más agresiva está desplegado y las técnicas de reducción de interferencias se implementan ya sea en el terminal de usuario (detección multiusuario) o en el transmisor (precodificación). Nuestros estudio aborda el problema de precodificación y filtrado lineal recibir métodos para sistemas de satélites multihaz cuando se considera la reutilización de frecuencias completa. Concretamente, consideramos las restricciones particulares de comunicaciones por satélite que, en contraste con los sistemas de comunicación terrestres, sufren de desventajas adicionales. En primer lugar, el enlace de conexión deberá agregar el tráfico global de datos que conduce a un requisito tasa muy grande. Esta velocidad de datos requerida es incluso aumentó cada vez filtrado lineal en el enlace de retorno y precodificación en el enlace directo se despliegan. Esto se debe a que las señales de alimentación, que son más grandes que el número de haces, se computarán en el suelo. Con el fin de resolver este problema, se propone una arquitectura híbrida, donde la carga útil del satélite está equipado con un procesamiento fijo. Este procesamiento a bordo transforma linealmente los datos recibidos y transmitidos con el fin de mantener el requisito de baja tasa de enlace de conexión. Los resultados del procesamiento de a bordo para ser el mismo para ambos enlaces directo y de retorno, dando lugar a una gran reducción de la complejidad de carga útil, la masa y el coste. En segundo lugar, como el tráfico de datos puede ser generada por diferentes puertas de enlace, el método de precodificación deberá ser diseñado en consecuencia. A diferencia de los trabajos anteriores, este trabajo estudia el caso en que la colaboración entre las diferentes pasarelas es limitado. Además de la contribución anterior, en este trabajo también se investigan algunos aspectos inexplorados de multi-gateway multihaz precodificación. Finalmente, consideramos un fenómeno importante que necesita actualmente para ser tratados en sistemas multihaz: el hecho de que una sola palabra de código se incrusta la información de múltiples usuarios en cada viga. Esto conduce a la denominada modelo de multidifusión multigrupo difícil, cuya optimización requiere operaciones computacionalmente complejos. En tal escenario, el diseño de precodificación en el enlace directo será dirigido.

Full textLes solucions actuals per a compartir dades no són compatibles per a contexts multi-proveïdor. Tradicionalment, els proveïdors de dades les ofereixen via Data Services hermètics amb APIs molt restringides. De manera que els consumidors per una banda es veuen obligats a adaptar les seves aplicacions a la funcionalitat actual, i d'altra banda veuen com les possibilitats de contribuir amb el seu propi know-how queden molt limitades. A nivell de gestió, els sistemes gestors de bases de dades que sostenen aquests Data Services estan dissenyats per a escenaris amb un únic proveïdor, forçant una administració centralitzada que recau en el rol de l'administrador de la base de dades o DBA. El DBA defineix les restriccions d'integritat necessàries i especifica el model extern de les dades a oferir als usuaris. El problema és que en un entorn multi-proveïdor, no podem assumir l'existència d'un únic administrador central que s'ocupi de les dades de tothom. A nivell de processament, el fet de tenir diferents representacions de les dades segons es processin a nivell aplicació, de servei, o de base de dades; fa que les aplicacions hagin de dedicar d'entre un 20 i un 50% del codi a realitzar les transformacions corresponents. Això té un impacte negatiu tan a nivell de productivitat dels programadors, com a nivell de rendiment global en aplicacions que fa un ús intensiu de les dades. Tenint en compte aquestes dificultats, aquesta tesi proposa tres nous mecanismes per fer possible que un sistema gestor de dades pugui donar suport a entorns multi-proveïdor, on es faciliti la col·laboració amb els consumidors i el desenvolupament d'aplicacions que facin un ús intensiu de les dades. En concret, partint de la descentralització de l'administració de les dades i d'un model de dades orientat a objectes, aquesta tesi contribueix a la comunitat científica amb: 1) un mecanisme per permetre que els consumidors puguin estendre el model extern de les dades i la funcionalitat oferta, sense comprometre les restriccions dels proveïdors. 2) un mecanisme per permetre que cada proveïdor pugui definir les restriccions d'integritat que cregui convenients sobre el model de les dades, i de tal manera que sempre siguin respectades independentment de l'ús que se'n faci i les extensions que hi hagi. 3) la integració d'un model de programació paral·lela amb el model de dades per millorar el rendiment de les aplicacions i la productivitat dels programadors, reduint significativament les transformacions de les dades i el codi necessari per accedir-les. Aquestes contribucions es validen per mitjà del disseny i implementació de dataClay, com a exemple de gestor de dades multi-proveïdor que compleix els requisits definits. A més, en relació a la primera i tercera contribucions, es mostren una serie d'estudis de rendiment que n'avaluen i en demostren la seva viabilitat (la segona contribució és només lògica).

Full textEn esta tesis, pretendemos explorar varios diseños novedosos de nanoestructuras basadas en grafeno, con diversas funcionalidades. Tras presentar brevemente los conceptos fundamentales y los modelos teóricos utilizados en esta tesis en el Capítulo 1, en el Capítulo 2 mostramos la posibilidad de describir la respuesta de nanopartículas plasmónicas (incluyendo efectos de retardo) mediante métodos de simulación semi-analíticos sencillos y sin la necesidad de emplear grandes recursos computacionales. Posteriormente, empleamos estos modelos en el desarrollo de un primer tipo de dispositivo: moduladores ópticos. Añadiendo láminas de grafeno acopladas a diferentes tipos de resonadores ópticos, podemos mejorar la intensidad de la luz en el plano del grafeno, y por lo tanto también su nivel de absorción, la cual puede ser modulada a voluntad mediante el nivel de dopado electrostático del grafeno, como se explora en el Capítulo 3. Los modelos empleados predicen cambios en la transmisión del orden de la unidad, produciendo así la absorción total por parte del dispositivo de la luz incidente. En esta clase de dispositivos, así como en todos los dispositivos nanofotónicos, la producción de calor mediante la absorción de la luz puede degradar severamente su rendimiento, así como limitar su vida útil, lo que hace que la manipulación de la fuente y el flujo de calor en la nanoescala sea una componente crucial del desarrollo. En el Capítulo 4, empleamos las extraordinarias propiedades ópticas y térmicas del grafeno para mostrar que puede tener lugar una transferencia ultrarrápida de calor radiativo entre nanoestructuras vecinas, facilitada por los plasmones del grafeno, los cuales a su vez experimentan efectos fototérmicos asociados con este proceso de disipación. Nuestros hallazgos revelan un nuevo régimen para la energía térmica a nanoescala, en la que la transferencia de calor radiativa se convierte en el mecanismo principal de disipación de calor. Además de los daños causados por la deposición de calor, la energía térmica generada puede ser de hecho usada como herramienta para la fotodetección: tal es el caso, por ejemplo, de los bolómetros de silicona, empleados para la fotodetección por infrarrojos. En el Capítulo 5, mostramos que la excitación de un solo plasmón en una unión de grafeno altera radicalmente sus propiedades eléctricas debido al calentamiento óptico. Este hecho puede ser empleado para demostrar el funcionamiento eficaz de un fotodetector en la región media de los infrarrojos a temperatura ambiente, tanto a través de predicciones teóricas como su corroboración experimental (en colaboración con el grupo del Prof. Fengnian Xia de la Universidad de Yale). Finalmente, en el Capítulo 6, mostramos a través de simulaciones mecánico-cuánticas (introducidas en el Capítulo 1), que tanto la respuesta óptica lineal como la no lineal de las nanoestructuras de grafeno pueden ser dramáticamente alteradas por la presencia de una sola molécula vecina que transporte o bien una carga elemental o un dipolo permanente. En base a estos resultados, afirmamos que las estructuras de grafeno nanoscópicas podrían ser una plataforma eficiente para detectar moléculas portadoras de carga o dipolos.

Full textThe need for AAA protocols in the world are increasing and todays most common protocols RADIUS and TACACS+, cannot cope with the fast advances in fields benefiting from the use of AAA protocols. This is why IETF has developed the protocol Diameter as a next generations AAA protocol. The objective of this thesis is to account for the work conducted with Diameter as well as to determine if it is going to become the major AAA protocol of the next generation. In this thesis, I describe what Diameter is, its close integration with the Mobile IP protocol and its other uses. As Diameter is based on RADIUS an introduction to AAA and RADIUS is given in order to comprehend where we are today and where we are going as well as to why. I also compare today’s protocols (RADIUS, TACACS+, Kerberos and COPS) against the next generations AAA protocol Diameter. From this comparison, the Mobile IP integration capabilities and an analysis of the support of the Diameter protocol I have come to the conclusion that Diameter is going to become the major AAA protocol of the next generation.

The Salvation Army thrift stores are retail entities in the center of neighborhoods which collect and resell used objects. Although historically dear to many, it seems that the physical condition, market visibility, and social perception of these stores do not always match the importance of the service they provide. The potential of that recycling network, already in place internationally, seems enormous in a context of economic crisis and rising environmental concerns. I would like to create a new Salvation Army thrift store for the years to come, and propose to redesign the closest one at hand as a case study. Among my ideas for this undertaking: - make the thrift store a pleasant and rich experiential space - add to the function of salvaging, the functions of cleaning and repairing - turn what used to be a store into a store ++, with small crafts attached (tailors, shoe repair, laundromats and dry cleaners, wood and metal workers) which would provide next door services and be a tool for social reinsertion (professional training for the unemployed) - open the market segment to all social categories - have the buildings themselves be an example of a new type of reuse/recycling.

Full textIdag förskrivs rollator av Landstingen samt kommuner, men inom en snar framtid kan marknaden för retail komma att öka radikalt i samband med att kraven från kunden ökar. Det råder en allt mer ökad medvetenhet och en vilja hos kunden att få en produkt som hänger med i samhällets utveckling, vilket dagens rollatorer inte gör. Då möjligheten och tillgängligheten till all sorts information ökar bidrar detta till att framtida generationer kommer att ställa högre krav på produkten än vad som ställs idag. Detta innebär att det just nu håller på att bildas ett glapp på marknaden och att en ny produkt som hänger med teknikens framfart måste utvecklas. Målet var att komma fram till ett konceptförslag, som sedan skulle kunna tas vidare till nästa fas för vidareutveckling och produktion. Arbetet syftar även till att bringa klarhet i kundkraven hos nästa generation och problem kring dagens förskrivningar, samt klarlägga värderingar som råder kring produkten. Arbetet har utgått från en metod som heter Pretzel, som är en process för degenerering och produktutveckling framtagen av företaget Scalae. Kartläggningen av värderingarna och samhällets syn på rollatorn, visar på problem som resulterar i att många rollatorer utskrivs försent. Detta innebär att onödiga personskador hinner uppkomma som i sin tur kostar samhället mycket pengar i jämförelse med förskrivningskostnaden av en rollator. Problemen ligger djup rotade i värderingar som går hand i hand men den långsamma utvecklingen av rollatorer. Den tekniska utvecklingen går idag oerhört fort och nya produkter lanseras på marknaden med rasande fart. Att till exempel ha samma mobiltelefonmodell som sin mamma är i dagens samhälle högst orimligt, men när det gäller rollatorer kan du till och med få samma modell som din farmor hade.Konceptet är inspirerat av existerande produkter på marknaden som är socialt accepterande, fast i andra sammanhang, så som barnvagnar och klassiska Dramaten-väskan. Genom att använda formspråk och funktioner som användaren redan är bekant med är målet acceptansprocessen för användaren kan kortas ner så att hjälpmedlet kan börja användas i tid och på så sätt minska risken för fallskador. Det slutliga konceptet kallas för Dramatorn och är en hybrid mellan en dramatenväska och en rollator.
