This volume presents concepts, policies and cost models for various long-term warranty and maintenance contracts. It offers several numerical examples for estimating costs to both the manufacturer and consumer. Long-term warranties and maintenance contracts are becoming increasingly popular, as these types of aftersales services provide assurance to consumers that they can enjoy long, reliable service, and protect them from defects and the potentially high costs of repairs.Studying long-term warranty and service contracts is important to manufacturers and consumers alike, as offering long-term warranty and maintenance contracts produce additional costs for manufacturers / service providers over the product’s service life. These costs must be factored into the price, or the manufacturer / dealer will incur losses instead of making a profit. On the other hand, the buyer / consumer needs to weigh the cost of maintaining it over its service life and to decide whether or not these policies are worth purchasing.There are a number of complexities involved in developing failure and cost models for these policies due to uncertainties concerning the service life, usage pattern, maintenance work and long-term costs of rectifications. Mathematical models for predicting failures and expected costs for various one-dimensional long-term warranty policies are developed at the system level and analyzed by taking into account the uncertainties in connection with longer coverage periods and the rectification costs over the warranty period. Failures and costs are modeled using stochastic techniques and illustrated by means of numerical examples for estimating costs to the manufacturer and consumer. Various rectification policies are proposed and analyzed. The models developed here can be used to aid in managerial decisions on purchasing products with long-term warranty policies and maintenance contracts or outsourcing maintenance.

I tredje boken i bokserien målar vi fler nyanser av de åtta länderna i regionen. Här har vi ett större Indienblock, med matresa, festival, trädgårdar och ayurveda. På olika nivåer reflekterar vi över några av språken i regionen. Från små språk uppe i bergen i Pakistan till dhivevi som talas i Maldiverna och det livskraftiga tamilska språket som används i södra Indien, Sri Lanka och lite runt om i världen. Vi går på djupet i de omvälvande protesterna i Nepal, hazarernas situation i Afghanistan och det svåra läget i Bangladesh, samt besöker bygget av och drömmen om en utopisk stad som ska bli verklig i Bhutan.

Bengaliska moln består av 80 dikter av 17 poeter från Bangladesh, en i västvärlden marginaliserad diktvärld. Denna antologi visar upp teman och stilar som fått stort genomslag i bengalisk poesi efter Tagore. Det är nio män och åtta kvinnor. En för tidigt död. Och en handfull i politisk exil - såsom Uppsalas tidigare fristadsförfattare Anisur Rahman och Taslima Nasrin. Bengaliska moln är som en av många monsunvindar från en dyrbar och komplex poesitradition, från ett språk som folk då och då har behövt offra livet för. De medverkande författarna är födda mellan 1940-talet och 1980-talet: Rafiq Azad (f. 1943), Mahadev Saha (f. 1944), Nirmalendu Goon (f. 1945), Ruby Rahman (f. 1946), Habibullah Sirajee (f. 1948), Quazi Rosy (f. 1949), Daud Haider (f. 1952), Shamim Azad (f. 1952), Dilara Hafiz (f. 1955), Muhammad Samad (f. 1956), Nasima Sultana (1957-1997), Taslima Nasrin (f. 1962), Tarik Sujat (f. 1965), Baitullah Quaderee (f. 1968), Aditi Falguni (f. 1974), Anisur Rahman (f. 1978), Mrittika Goon (f. 1982). Bokens förord av Anisur Rahman skisserar Bangladeshs politiska utveckling samt inriktningen i bengalisk poesi.

Bengalisk-svenske författaren Anisur Rahmans episka monolog Jag är Sheikh Mujib skildrar nittonhundratalets frihetskamp på Indiska subkontinenten genom Sheikh Mujibur Rahmans röst – från den brittiska kolonialtiden fram till det självständiga Bangladeshs första trevande år under hans ledarskap. Längs vägen kom denna politiska kamp i hög grad också att handla om rätten till sitt eget språk. Anisur Rahman (f. 1978) är bosatt i Uppsala sedan 2009. Han är författare till ett flertal verk på bengaliska: diktsamlingar, pjäser, noveller, romaner och barnböcker. Ami Sheikh Mujib utgavs i Dhaka 2017. På svenska finns sedan tidigare bland annat diktsamlingen Sex årstider (2012) och novellsamlingen Diskouppdraget och andra berättelser (2016).

Sju författare som alla levt i exil i Sverige som fristadsförfattare. I Fria ord på flykt bidrar de med texter utdrag ur romaner, dikter, artiklar samt genom samtal med svenska kollegor. Samtal om erfarenheterna, texten, poetik, politik och språk. Det är texter som rör sig mellan poesi och personliga berättelser, arabisk dikttradition och belarusisk dokumentärromankonst. Samtal som behandlar så vitt skilda ämnen som poesi och frihet, livet i exil, georgisk performancedikt, Ibsen, feministisk aktivism, sovjetmänniskan och internetaktivism. Författarna, poeterna och journalisterna har alla stått emot repression och förföljelse och fortsatt att skriva och uttrycka sina åsikter. Därför har de inte bara utsattheten gemensamt, utan även ett oerhört mod och framförallt exilen. Möt och läs Svetlana Aleksijevitj, Parvin Ardalan, Faraj Bayrakdar, Jesper Bengtsson, Ida Börjel, Ingrid Elam, Henrik C Enbohm, Pär Hansson, Li Jianhong, Ulrika Knutson, Ola Larsmo, Cato Lein, Herta Müller, Taslima Nasrin, Anisur Rahman, Zurab Rtveliashvili och Jenny Tunedal.

Tomas Tranströmer was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature 2011. He was then the first Swedish writer to become a laureate for almost forty years. This anthology takes an intercontinental perspective on the poetry of Tranströmer. It raises the question of how his poetry is actually perceived in continents predominated by other literary preferences. It also gives insight to the literal appearance of his poetry in essentially different languages. Tranströmer International features a seminar of world poets, placing his poetry in context by relating to their countries of origin: Columbia, Iran and Bangladesh. Ángela García, Azita Ghahreman, Anisur Rahman and Kristian Carlsson-i.e. the main seminar committee-also present one poem each inspired by Tranströmer. And a select working group has translated sample poems of Tranströmer into several world languages, printed alongside the Swedish originals. Most translations are done exclusively for this anthology, and in addition to some new English versions, there are poems in Arabic, Bengali, Farsi, Japanese, Romani, Russian, North Sami, Somali and Spanish.

In his epic monologue, Bengali-Swedish writer Anisur Rahman brings to life the voice and mind of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman during all hardships and struggle for an independent nation for the Bengali speaking people of the Indian Subcontinent. The political history of Bangladesh has manifested itself as the people's proclamation of language as a cultural heritage, and as an epitome of resistance to colonial powers mapping out the postcolonial nations. Bengali-Swedish writer Anisur Rahman's authorship based in Bangladesh and Scandinavia. He is one of the board members of the Swedish Writers' Union. His diverse literary works include prose, poetry, novels, short stories and books for children. His plays have been presented on the Swedish Radio Theatre, the Norwegian Radio Theatre, and at various universities and theatres in Africa, Asia and Europe.

Någonstans och Ingenstans kallas två grill- och festplatser som ligger utmed Svartån i Tranås, och som förr ofta användes när festsugna ungdomar ville vara i fred, långt borta från de vuxnas granskande blickar. Mellan Någonstans och Ingenstans heter antologin där det bjuds på poesi, både på svenska och engelska, i olika former. Allt från långa dikter till kortare poem och haiku. 29 poeter från hela världen som vistats i Tranås låter läsaren ta del av deras intryck av staden och dess människor, när de med utomståendes ögon blickar in i deras vardag, deras värld. En plats inte bara i ingenstans utan också i någonstans. Varken bättre eller sämre än andra städer.
