12. Analysis of Tripod shaped high rise building using Tubed Mega Frame structures

13. Help or hinder? : Journalists affecting the future of female genital mutilation in a patriarchal society
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Teologiska institutionenSammanfattning : Is it possible to cover an issue as a journalist to the extent that you are practically a human rights activist, and still contribute to its continuation by unconsciously upholding the values causing the issue?

Magister-uppsats, Malmö högskola/Fakulteten för kultur och samhälle (KS)Sammanfattning : Ambient Intelligence (AmI) refers to a vision of the information society where everyday human environments will be permeated by intelligent technology: people will be surrounded and accompanied by intelligent interfaces supported by computing and wireless networking technology that is ubiquitous, embedded in virtually all kinds of everyday objects. These computationally augmented, smart environments - composed of a myriad of invisible, distributed, networked, connected, interactive, and always-on computing devices - are aware of human context; sensitive to people's needs; adaptive to, and anticipatory of, their behavior; personalized to their requirements; and responsive to their emotion and presence, thereby intelligently supporting their daily and social lives by providing limitless services in a seamless and unobtrusive way.
