The connection of devices to the internet is referred to as Internet of Things (IoT). By using IoT distributed network of devices will be able to communicate with each other. The management and forming of distributed applications is, however, very complex since IoT uses devices that have different capabilities and that do not have the same communication protocols. Calvin is an open source applicat
As infrastructural systems become ever more complex and interconnected, they may also become ever more vulnerable to system-wide faults due to local disturbances. As such it is of great importance to design these system to be resilient, i.e. to be able to withstand and recover from disturbances or new conditions. In the case of traffic networks, while much work has been done to analyze the stabili
Stockholm har under de senaste åren visat stora hyresökningar på kontorsmarknaden samtidigt som bostadsmarknaden har avsvalnat. Även fast Sverige placeras bra i avseende på flera mått såsom vakans och BNP har städer som också haft bra tillväxt i BNP och låg vakans inte uppvisat lika hög hyrestillväxt. Den här studien undersöker fallet om bostadsmarknaden har påverkat kontorshyrorna i Stockholm. OmIn recent years, Stockholm has shown a large rent increases in the office market simultaneously as the housing market has cooled off. Although Sweden is well measured in several areas such as vacancy and GDP, other cities that also produced significant GDP growth and low vacancy rates have not shown as much rental growth as Stockholm. This study examines if and how the housing market has affected
On-chip memory plays an important role in system-on-chip (SoCs) being in most cases the dominant part in both area and power. Additionally, it determines the overall system's speed. As a result, new memory architectures and technologies have been developed over the years in order to improve the overall system performance. This project introduces the design and implementation of a memory cont
This essay has examined the mandatory annual gender pay gap reports published by five of the UK’s biggest publishing organisation. In 2017, a new government legislation concerning gender pay gap transparency was enforced. This legislation states that organisations with an employment number of 250 or more are required to report on their gender pay gap annually. The first of these annual reports we
Food is a daily product which has a significant part of private consumption. Just like other goods, food prices tend to fluctuate, depending on a number of factors. An increasingly globalized food production, coupled with increased consumption, makes Swedish food prices more sensitive to outside factors. The increase in imports and the decrease in self-sufficiency means that prices in Sweden are a
This research focuses on Cuba’s economic changes that have been unraveling since the 1990s but has had significant impacts in the past decade. The removal of economic restrictions paired with a rise in tourism has had several outcomes including economic growth for the country but a dismantling of the equality for which it has been previously praised. The changes in the economic atmosphere of Cuba
Current research suggests that human behaviour impacts on acceptance of new technology and that perceived usefulness (PU) and perceived ease of use (PEU) are two main factors determining behavioural intent and actual behaviour of technology users. This study examines the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM2) as developed by Venkatesh and Davis in 2000 with a particular focus on PU through the lens of
Raindrops adhered to the glass protecting a surveillance camera can significantly degrade the visibility of a scene. The goal of this master's thesis is to develop an accurate, efficient, computationally cheap algorithm that automatically detects adherent raindrops using only video and then removes them by activating the wipers or the shaking dome function. Two already existing algorithms, Tem

Theoretical understanding indicates that Majorana zero modes in solid-state systems could be utilized for fault-tolerant quantum information processing. The ability to reliably detect these excitations, however, remains a challenge and many of their properties are still unknown. In this Master's project, devices that implement a circuit quantum electrodynamics architecture and are predicted t
In this project, the conguration interaction (CI) method is used to study the nuclear spectra and the interactions between the nucleons in certain nuclei. The NuShellX@MSU code based on the CI method is used to calculate and compare the energy levels of the nuclei 42Ca, 42Ti, 42Sc, 48Cr on the basis of the J-scheme. The calculations test the interactions denoted f742pn in the f7pn model space as w
The Water Tightness group at Volvo Cars is responsible for creating and maintaining requirements and thresholds regarding water flows on a car. This is performed by doing extensive physical testing while making sure that databases and previous requirements are kept up to date. Previously the big focus for the Water Tightness department has been physical testing as there were no other options. Dur
Energiförbrukningen i elektronikprodukter minskar samtidigt som prestandan för solceller hela tiden ökar. Nya solcellstyper med lägre priser skapar nya möjligheter för använding även i små elektronikprodukter. Att samla energi från omgivningen, t.ex. från ljuset i ett rum, och använda det för att driva små elektronikprodukter kallas i ett vidare begrepp för ”energy harvesting” (SV: energiskördningThe power consumption of electronic devices is decreasing at the same time as the performance of solar cells is increasing. Solar cells based on new technologies with lower costs are becoming commercially available, creating new opportunities for use in small electronic products. The concept of capturing ambient energy, such as light, and using it to power small electronic devices is known as ener
Architecture is undoubtedly an international profession, with practices undertaking projects far away from their home territories. In such a world, it is important that architects are able to design in a way that is responsive to the project’s setting and situation, refraining from unrooted architecture transposed from place to place. Through the examination of seminal texts in architectural theo
There is an increased interest not only in sustainability but also in becoming socially responsible due to greater awareness as well as pressure from stakeholders. Contradictive results are found on whether Socially Responsible Investments (SRIs) in the area of funds are outperforming conventional funds. Further, in the area of Mergers and Acquisitions (M&As), there is plenty of research ident

There is general agreement that the body expresses emotion, and while there is research on the expression of emotion in so-called “body language” (e.g. facial expression, posture), only little research exists on the expression of emotion in hand gestures. Two previous studies (Casasanto & Jasmin, 2010; Kipp & Martin, 2009) found opposing patterns of correlation between the gesturing hand a
The prevalence of violent conflicts over the last few decades has left numerous countries in the need of thorough rebuilding; from Afghanistan to Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Guatemala, Somalia or Rwanda. In order to assist in the recovery of these post-conflict societies, various peacebuilding strategies and transitional justice mechanisms have been implemented by a range of different actors. However, mo
