In recent years, the critical debate in Sweden about so-called “migrant literature” written by 1.5-generation or second-generation authors has become a hot topic. With the publication of Till vår ära (To our Honor) in 2001, Alejandro Leiva Wenger (b. 1976) has often been cited as the initiator of this new literary wave. While much has been written about his debut and the authors who followed in his footsteps – Jonas Hassen Khemiri (b. 1978), Marjaneh Bakhtiari (b. 1980), and Johannes Anyuru (b. 1979) – his theatrical works have received little attention. This article provides an analysis of his first two plays: the monologue 127 and the piece Författarna (The Authors). While the former revisits themes related to suburban areas – such as segregation and social stigma – and explores the emergence of a Swedish sociolect known as förortssvenska, in Författarna, Leiva Wenger turns to the theme of authorship and the implicit demand for authenticity often placed on writers of foreign origin.

This paper describes how the Galileo Open Service Navigation Message Authentication (OSNMA) is exploited in the frame of the e-security infrastructure developed by the GalileO-based trustEd Applications for health and SustainabilitY (GOEASY) project. The GOEASY general objective is the provision of the technical and business foundations to enable a new generation of trusted and dependable mass-market Location-Based Services (LBS) and Applications for engaging, stimulating and rewarding citizens for more sustainable behaviors. The first three chapters of the paper describe the GOEASY platform and provides an overview of the two pilot applications that have been developed in the frame of the project to support the demonstration phase. The last chapters of the paper deal with the implementation and the performance evaluation of the authentication algorithm.

Abstract Developers of applications for health and wellness monitoring are facing a diversity of protocols, standards and communication mechanisms for collecting data from heterogeneous sensors, devices and services, as well as when exporting data to various health and wellness services and systems. The REACTION platform addresses this using a middleware approach which leverages the development tasks to a service-oriented level allowing developers to use open standard technologies like web services. The REACTION SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) approach offers a scalable and inter-operable platform for use in different healthcare settings. The REACTION applications are based on numerous individual services that can be developed and deployed to perform clinical monitoring and feedback tasks, execute distributed decision support and security tasks, support work flow management, and perform event handling and crisis management.KeywordsRemote Healthcare MonitoringDiabetesSOAInternet of ThingsMiddlewareSemantics

We use the fact that the Palm measure of a stationary random measure is invariant to phase space change to generalize the light traffic formula initially obtained for stationary processes on a line to general spaces. This formula gives a first-order expansion for the expectation of a functional of the random measure when its intensity vanishes. This generalization leads to new algorithms for estimating gradients of functionals of geometrical random processes.

The lattice dynamics of superlattices based on two different pure constituents, like for instance GaAs/AlAs, InAs/GaSb or Si/Ge, is now very weL.L. understood and most of the theoretical predictions have been successfully verified by Raman scattering, at least on GaAs/AlAs structures which are available at a very high quality1.

A discussion is presented of cost trajectories in ISDN, transmission and switching equipment, cost comparisons between ISDN and PSTN, tariffs, the predicted market for ISDN, and the positioning of ISDN. The economy of ISDN was thoroughly studied before the setting of the French tariffs for ISDN. In order to have a strong basis, no hypothesis was made as to the new resources that ISDN should bring to customers. In particular, no increase in traffic was considered and the use of ISDN for applications other than telephony was not taken into account for the financial balance. The tariffs also take into account the commercial strategy of France Telecom and the ISDN development schedule.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>

Le laser accordable MgF2 : Ni2+ fait l'objet d'une investigation detaillee. On presente des cavites optiques a deux et trois miroirs ainsi que leurs dispositifs d'injection du faisceau d'excitation et le filtre de Lyot servant a l'accord en frequence de l'emission laser infrarouge. On compare l'excitation optique du cristal laser par un laser a krypton ionise emettant a 0,7525 μm et 0,7993 μm et par un laser solide YAG : Nd 3+ emettant a 1,32 μm. L'emission laser obtenue a 80 K se caracterise dans les conditions optimales par une puissance maximale emise de 185 mW pour un rendement de conversion de 10 % et une gamme d'accord s'etendant de 1,608 μm a 1,73 μm. La structure de cette derniere est discutee par rapport aux modes de vibration du reseau cristallin.

We consider a single-server queueing system in which a customer gives up whenever his waiting time is larger than a random threshold, his patience time. In the case of a GI/GI/1 queue with i.i.d. patience times, we establish the extensions of the classical GI/GI/1 formulae concerning the stability condition and the relation between actual and virtual waiting-time distribution functions. We also prove that these last two distribution functions coincide in the case of a Poisson input process and determine their common law.

L’article decrit le processus aleatoire d’ecoulement du trafic dans un faisceau de circuits telephoniques a accessibilite totale, dans le cas du modele a appels perdus. Il rappelle brievement les resultats recents obtenus dans le cas d’hypotheses les plus generales pour le processus des arrivees et des durees de service, afin de presenter une nouvelle methode.
