Au-Sn solid-liquid interdiffusion (SLID) bonding is a novel and promising interconnect technology for high-temperature applications. This article gives a review over previously published work on Au-Sn SLID bonding. An overview of the crystal phases and the thermomechanical properties of the Au-Sn...
We should employ a strategy to test product lines. Testing products individually is redundant for product lines since the products share a considerable amount of code. This document presents a survey of product line testing strategies based on the best available empirics out there. We found that...
A long-distance channel measurement campaign with a maximum distance of 45 km was performed in Trondheimsfjorden, Norway. In this paper, we give a detailed description of the channel measurements including route, RX and TX antenna sites and other channel parameters. The results of received signal...
...the study bulits on a contextual approach based on semi-structured face to face interviews. The most typical common experience was the feeling of being alone with problems and needs. A ’rare’ experience is that of falling outside the vast field of knowledge of the health and welfare professionals...
Remote controlled robots on offshore oil and gas platforms can potentially reduce costs and improve environment, health and safety issues. A key to successful remote control is to provide onshore operators with a sufficient overview of the processes offshore. To this end, robot manipulators...
Fragile micromachined MEMS structures are usually protected by bonding a capping wafer to the device wafer itself. As opposed to using lateral interconnects at the interface between the cap wafer and the device wafer, the use of vertical through silicon vias (TSVs) significantly simplifies the...
A large number of facilities and parts of the infrastructure on the Norwegian Continental Shelf are approaching or have exceeded their original design life. Many fields, however, have remaining recoverable oil and gas reserves which may be profitable if the field's life is extended. From a safety...
We develop a sparse basis model-order reduction technique for approximation of flux/pressure fields based on local proper orthogonal decompositions (PODs) glued together using the Multiscale Mixed FEM (MsMFEM) framework on a coarse grid. Based on snapshots from one or more simulation run, we perform...
The Internet of Things (IoT) is formed by the networked interconnection of everyday objects. It is involving self configuring wireless networks of sensors that create a world where everything in it sends information to other objects and to people. This world, in which everything is tagged and...
User interface adaptations can be performed at runtime to dynamically reflect any change of context. Complex user interfaces and contexts can lead to the combinatorial explosion of the number of possible adaptations. Thus, dynamic adaptations come across the issue of adapting user interfaces in a...
Cloud storage services are gaining more and more attention. Surveys suggest that the confidentiality issue is one of the major obstacles for users to use cloud storage services to keep sensitive data. This paper proposes to deploy a Redundant Array of Independent Net-storages (RAIN) for...
