Identification of the seed varieties is essential in the quality control and high yield crop growth. The existing methods of varietal identification rely primarily on visual examination and DNA fingerprinting. Although the pattern of DNA fingerprinting allows precise classification of seed varieties but fraught with challenges such as low rate of polymorphism amongst closely related species, destructive ...

This paper conducts a systemic comparative study on univariate and multivariate wind power forecasting for five wind farms inside the Arctic area. The development of wind power in the Arctic can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions in this environmentally fragile region. In practice, wind power forecasting is essential to maintain the grid balance and optimize electricity generation. This study first ...

In this paper we give an algorithm to round the floating point output of a semidefinite programming solver to a solution over the rationals or a quadratic extension of the rationals. This algorithm does not require the solution to be strictly feasible and works for large problems. We apply this to get sharp bounds for packing problems, and we use these sharp bounds to prove that certain optimal ...

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) findes kun i meget begrænset omfang på andre sprog end engelsk. Der arbejdes sjældent med overgange mellem uddannelsesniveauer, og CLIL forbindes næsten aldrig med en flersprogethedsdidaktik. Sådan kan man lidt groft sammenfatte resultaterne fra en spørgeskemaundersøgelse, som blev besvaret i foråret 2021 af eksperter fra 29 lande.

About 10% of all pupils in grades 1–10 who learn Sámi in Norwegian schools live in the city of Tromsø in Northern Norway. This group totalled 232 pupils in the school year 2020/2021, and the pupils went to over 20 different schools. All but one were pupils of North Sámi, and a handful also received instruction in South Sámi. In Umeå in Sweden, 42 pupils attended mother tongue classes in Sámi in the ...

As the digital shift in society affects both private and public organizations, the role of digital innovation is critical if digital transformations are to succeed. Research has developed models to explain how digital innovation affects organizations and societies. During the last ten years, employee-driven innovation has emerged as a new approach to explain innovation. Through this systematic ...

As a disruptive technology, additive manufacturing (AM) is revolutionizing manufacturing supply chains. AM consists of producing 3-dimensional objects through layer-by-layer addition of compound material based on digital models. The scheduling of additive manufacturing operations differs from traditional (i.e., subtractive and injection molding) manufacturing with a single production run involving ...

Avhandlingen tar sikte på å avdekke hvilke krav som stilles til forvaltningens saksbehandling ved nedjustering av akvakulturtillatelser etter kapasitetsjusteringsforskriften § 3 tredje ledd, jf. § 21 med hjemmel i akvakulturloven § 9 tredje ledd. Avslutningsvis foreslås det endringer i saksbehandlingsprosessen for å i større grad ivareta hensynet til konsesjonshaveren som rammes av nedjusteringen.

A growing body of evidence points to the potential of life writing about anorexia to foster “disordered reading” practices in certain readers (Seaber, 2016), with particular concerns raised about the breakthrough eating disorder memoir, Marya Hornbacher’s Wasted (1998). With this article, I shift the focus from readers to authors, exploring the positive and negative health consequences of writing ...

<p><i>Innledning:</i> Radiografi er et ungt fag der dokumentasjon av historien og utviklingen i Norge er begrenset. I Norge ble de første radiografene utdannet tidlig på 1970 tallet. Bakgrunnen for å starte utdanningen var mangel på røntgenassistenter, dårlig rekruttering av sykepleiere til ledige stillinger og at andre land i Vest Europa hadde startet å utdanne teknisk personale for å arbeide på ...
