Baldos News
The Baldos II is the most fuel-efficient vehicle allowed for street–use in Sweden, ever. During a test-run in January 2010 it travelled the equivalent of 152.2 kilometers on one single liter of gasoline, which is about five times the distance of the most fuel-efficient cars sold in Sweden today. For more information please continue to the page above.

Post-graduate Education
Working as a post-graduate student is challenging, and puts the ability to solve problems both in detail and to see the big picture to test. You will gain experience in both theoretical work and practice and you often work in research projects in collaboration with industry. Often there are also some departmental duties such as undergraduate teaching.

Presentation of Magnus Holm EISLAB
The Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering introduces Magnus Holm, PhD student in Industrial Electronics. Magnus has a M.Sc. degree in Engineering Physics and a Licentiate in Engineering degree in Solid State Physics from Lund University. After graduating in April 2003, Magnus has spent a number of years in the private sector, mostly within IT/Telecom, and now returns to university.
His research is about investigating the correlation between software design and electromagnetic compatibility in embedded systems. Timing of events in the real-time system is of special importance. The goal is to integrate existing tools (Timber, hardware models, PEEC) in order to allow for a simulation of the whole path from software to electromagnetic fields, such that a design paradigm can be developed and unwanted electromagnetic effects avoided. This technology is relevant for the automotive industry, as well as many other areas where embedded systems are utilized.

Introducing Joakim Öman EISLAB
The department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering would like to introduce Joakim Öman who is here as a PhD student in Industrial Electronics. Joakim graduated 2006 as a M.Sc. in Space Engineering here at the University and is now back from industry to start his research career in the field of Electronic Production Technology.
In short the research goal is to optimise PCB production for small and medium size production series. The main focus is to investigate and model the thermal system that exists between PCB and soldering oven. The model will then be used to provide better configuration parameters for the production line. An accurate model will not only increase soldering quality and decrease PCB rejection but might also be a tool to find discrepancies already in the PCB design.
The project is a part of ESiS.

Introducing Dr. Suxing Liu
The department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering introduces Dr. Suxing Liu who will stay at LTU for a year doing research on electromagnetic modeling.
Dr. Liu recently got his PhD from the School of Communication and Information Engineering, Shanghai University, China.
His research interest is mainly focuses on 3D video processing, 3D display and 3D systems. He is proficient in 3D/Stereo/Multi-view video processing (including capturing and display). In addition, his research field also involve computer vision, like edge-based segmentation, template matching and object trace tracking. Dr. Liu will be working with 3D visualization of EM models and meshing algorithms as PostDoc for the coming year.
You find Dr. Liu in A2210.

Teknik-SM
Den 7 maj avgjordes finalen i Teknik-SM. Av de 175 team som deltog i kvaltävlingarna återstod bara tre i finalen. Självklart var LTU med och representerades av studenterna Harald Hernnäs (D), Frida Nellros (F) och Jonas Jonsson (D) med laget "12648430".
Det blev en andraplats totalt, vilket vi gratulerar till. Mycket bra gjort! Vann gjorde laget "Bättre sent än aldrig" från Lunds tekniska högskola och tre blev laget "Poissons fläck" från Chalmers tekniska högskola.

TCP/IP Technology for Modern Network Environments
To facilitate the merging of wireless access technologies and the traditional Internet, the
core protocols for data communication should be robust and have low overhead. In this
thesis, we propose refinements to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) that improve >>
its cost efficiency over wireless links.

Driverless tractor on the news
On May 19, the driverless tractor IceMaker I where presented on the TV news. The tractor is intended to remove snow and prepare test tracks on lake ice.
The motivation to develop a driverless tractor is the possibility to prolong the winter test season, and also to improve the safety for the employees that prepares test tracks on thin lake ice.
The tractor is part of a research project with the object to support the vehicle test industry in the northern part of Sweden. The development of the tractor is performed in collaboration between Luleå University of Technology and IceMakers, Arjeplog.

Delayed congratulations

The grant is of great importance for the further development and progress of the research area.
One of the main subjects of the biomedical engineering team at Luleå university of technology is to develop sensors that combine light and sound based techniques. The goal is to simultaneously register different parameters that are vital for reliable diagnosis and treatment of diseases, and cancer in particular. The sound based resonance-sensor technique is capable of detecting minute density alterations in cancer tissue. The light based Raman-technique, on the other hand, registers the molecular composition of cancer tissue that differs from healthy tissue. The combination of the two techniques leads hopefully to a more reliable and easy to handle diagnosis. The Kempe foundation has now granted financial support for the purchase of a portable Raman-setup that consists of a laser, a spectrometer and a fiber-optical probe-head.

Student Space Education and Technology Initiative - SSETI
The Rad/OBDH Node team is a group of students at Luleå University of Technology. We belong to an association called SSETI (Student Space Education and Technology Initiative) which is supported by ESA (European Space Agency). We are at the moment building two subsystems for a satellite supposed to orbit the Earth.
One subsystem is the RadFET payload supposed to measure radiation within the satellite. The other subsystem is OBDH Node supposed to be a datahandling node for data exchange between some subsystems in the satelllite. We also aim for joining the upcoming student mission to the moon also arranged by SSETI.
