Evolved high aerobic capacity has context-specific effects on gut microbiota
2022
Publisher Copyright: Copyright © 2022 Hanhimäki, Watts, Koskela, Koteja, Mappes and Hämäläinen. Gut microbiota is expected to coevolve with the host's physiology and may play a role in adjusting the host's energy metabolism to suit the host's environment. To evaluate the effects of both evolved host metabolism and the environmental context in shaping the gut microbiota, we used a unique combination of (1) experimental evolution to create selection lines for a fast metabolism and (2) a laboratory-to-field translocation study. Mature bank voles Myodes glareolus from lines selected for high aerobic capacity (A lines) and from unselected control (C lines) were released into large (0.2 ha) outdo…
Sahelin nälkäkriisin uutisointi : diskurssianalyyttinen tutkimus Helsingin Sanomien ja Ylen uutisoinnista Sahelin ruokakriisistä vuonna 2012
2012
In early 2012 the Sahel area in sub-Saharan Africa was facing shortage in food and millions of people were in risk of hunger. In my Bachelor´s thesis I´m investigating the coverage of the Sahel crisis of 2012 in two Finnish main media; the newspaper Helsingin Sanomat and the online news of Finnish broadcasting company Yle (http://yle.fi/uutiset/). My data was collected between January and September in 2012 and it consisted fifteen different articles. My research method was critical discourse analysis through which I hoped to bring out the hidden structures of the texts and also to see what kind of so-called sahelian reality the writer was describing. My main research questions were: How is …
Joint Radio and Computational Resource Allocation in IoT Fog Computing
2018
The current cloud-based Internet-of-Things (IoT) model has revealed great potential in offering storage and computing services to the IoT users. Fog computing, as an emerging paradigm to complement the cloud computing platform, has been proposed to extend the IoT role to the edge of the network. With fog computing, service providers can exchange the control signals with the users for specific task requirements, and offload users’ delay-sensitive tasks directly to the widely distributed fog nodes at the network edge, and thus improving user experience. So far, most existing works have focused on either the radio or computational resource allocation in the fog computing. In this work, we inve…
Contrasting Internationalization Paths of Product- and Service-oriented Software Firms
2019
The internationalization of software firms has been widely researched topic over the last two decades. However, the most of the studies have treated software firms as a homogeneous group, ignoring the fact that software firms actually differ greatly in terms of having either a product or a service orientation. Based on earlier literature, we hypothesized that software product firms would show a tendency to internationalize earlier and at a smaller size than software service firms, and that product firms would show a greater tendency to target countries that are both geographically and culturally distant. In fact, we found no support for most of our hypotheses, with relatively strong and sta…
Adapting to Dynamic LEO-B5G Systems : Meta-Critic Learning Based Efficient Resource Scheduling
2022
Low earth orbit (LEO) satellite-assisted communications have been considered as one of key elements in beyond 5G systems to provide wide coverage and cost-efficient data services. Such dynamic space-terrestrial topologies impose exponential increase in the degrees of freedom in network management. In this paper, we address two practical issues for an over-loaded LEO-terrestrial system. The first challenge is how to efficiently schedule resources to serve the massive number of connected users, such that more data and users can be delivered/served. The second challenge is how to make the algorithmic solution more resilient in adapting to dynamic wireless environments.To address them, we first…
The hyplet : Joining a Program and a Nanovisor for real-time and Performance
2020
This paper presents the concept of sharing a hyper-visor address space with a standard Linux program. In this work, we add hypervisor awareness to the Linux kernel and execute code in the HYP exception level through using the hyplet. The hyplet is an innovative way to code interrupt service routines and remote procedure calls under ARM. The hyplet provides high performance and run-time predictability. We demonstrate the hyplet implementation using the C programming language on an ARM8v-a platform and under the Linux kernel. We then provide performance measurements, use cases, and security scenarios. peerReviewed
Elaborating biodiversity offsetting towards ecological accounting of land use planning
2022
Suomen Akatemian hankerahoitus (TRANAPLAN, 333366) Ekologista kompensaatiota on ehdotettu keinoksi, jonka avulla myös Suomessa voitaisiin ratkoa maankäytön muutoksista aiheutuvan luontokadon ongelmaa. Esimerkiksi tonttituotantokohteiden tai rakennettavan liikenneväylän heikentämät luontoarvot tulisi hyvittää jossain toisaalla, jotta elinympäristöt ja luonnon monimuotoisuus eivät vähenisi hankkeen vaikutuksesta. Ekologisen kompensaation idea ei ole ongelmaton: sen voi perustellusti pelätä edistävän ympäristölle haitallisten hankkeiden toteuttamista. Kustannus, jonka maan käyttäjä luontoarvojen heikentämisestä saa vastattavakseen, voidaan mieltää ostetuksi luvaksi heikentää ympäristöä. Kompen…
Guiding Student Thinking Through Teacher Questioning When Learning with Dynamic Representations
2021
Dynamic representations (e.g., dynamic geometry software GeoGebra for mathematics learning and PhET simulations for science learning) offer excellent opportunities for students to conduct investigations and to formulate explanations for the visualized phenomena. In order for this to be effective, students need guidance, for example, for planning their investigations and reflecting on their actions. One way to support students is by prompting them by using questions that are adapted to the students’ current situation. This chapter focuses on how pre-service teachers provide guidance for students through questioning and by both structuring and problematizing student learning. Data comes from …
Liiketoimintaprosessien analysointi : avainsuorituskykyindikaattorit analytiikan tukena
2015
Nykypäivän kiihtyvässä globalisaatiossa yritykset ja organisaatiot muokkaavat toimintojaan prosessiorientoituneeksi. Tämä organisaatiorakenteen muutos eroaa huomattavasti perinteisestä organisaatiomallista. Prosessiorientoituneen organisaation ytimenä toimivat liiketoimintaprosessit, jotka tuottavat yrityksen liiketoiminnan tuotteita ja palveluja. Tästä syystä liiketoimintaprosessit ovat nykyisten organisaatioiden keskeisimpiä toimintoja, joita tulee tarkkailla ja analysoida. Analysoinnin avulla pyritään ennustamaan ja tehostamaan liiketoimintaprosesseja erilaisin metodein. Analysoinnissa on tärkeää kiinnittää huomiota liiketoimintaprosessien suorituskykyyn. Suorituskykyä voidaan mitata eri…
A Dominant Global Translation Strategy in Thai Translated Novels : The Translations of Religious Markers in Dan Brown’s Thriller Novels
2020
When translation is considered as an integral part of larger social systems (Even-Zohar 1990), the ways in which translations are produced to serve readers’ specificity could be affected. This paper examines whether there is a preference for a specific global translation strategy due to a readership that is specialized in terms of education level. Adopting Venuti’s (1995/2008) division of global translation strategies into exoticizing and domesticating translation, it examines the frequency of local translation strategies, which are part of a global translation strategy, used in translating English-Thai religious markers in Dan Brown’s Angels and Demons, The Da Vinci Code, The Lost Symbol, …
