The software engineering community has proposed numerous approaches for making software self-adaptive. These approaches take inspiration from machine learning and control theory, constructing software that monitors and modifies its own behavior to meet goals. Control theory, in particular, has received considerable attention as it represents a general methodology for creating adaptive systems. Con

Collaboration involving student–industry activities entails a complex interaction between university, students, and industry. The university–student–industry triangle identified here is neither static nor balanced, and each of the three intertwined relationships displays distinguishing characteristics. Each has its own structure; the activity phases of the relationships are not synchronous, and ea

Light absorbing carbonaceous aerosols produced from combustion span over a range of physicochemical properties. Soot is the most recognized species in this category and its formation process involves gradual maturation from amorphous young soot with a high hydrogen-to-carbon-ratio toward mature soot aggregates. In this work, the optical response of a single particle soot photometer (SP2) to electr

The widespread deployment of digital technologies has made the globe an interconnected world. Among other necessities of the digitalized world, cybersecurity is a crucial component. Therefore, education and proper training of the cybersecurity workforce are essential for building a strong national and global community. However, a significant shortage of proficient cybersecurity experts is reported

The advancement of mobile technologies and their ability to utilize the Global Positioning System (GPS) to accurately locate their substantial number of users, prompt Location-Based Services (LBS) significantly. Ride-sharing is a popular means of transportation that utilizes LBS. With the rapid development of smart cities and their impact on addressing the critical issues of urban life such as tra

The inability to provide adequate education for refugee children in Transit and Reception Centres in the Republic of North Macedonia during the refugee crisis (2016-2017), defines the context-specific precarious conditions that stimulated teachers on-the-ground to seek new educational methods. The research questions inquire about the teachers’ methods outside the scope of formal/non-formal educati

This thesis exists within the debate of sustainable environmental management, examining the potential of rights of nature in overcoming problems caused by the current neoliberal conservation paradigm such as inequalities in power, lack in indigenous inclusion, as well as using contextually inappropriate approaches. In examining this a qualitative comparative case study research design is applied o

Bildstyrd strålterapi är en process bestående av att ta 2D eller 3D bilder under strålbehandlingens gång och används för att försäkra sig om att patienten är positionerad på samma sätt som referensbilden för att få samma dos som planerades (beräknat på referens bilden). I det här arbetet har en 3D scanning av patientens positionering jämförs med en CT referensbild för patienten. Efter matchen, somPurpose: The aim of this study is to a) study the benefits and limitations with soft-tissue match for lung cancer patients, b) evaluate five different soft-tissue match methods, c) compare soft-tissue with bony match, d) find the stable surrogates to match on for obscured malignant lymph nodes, e) calculate CTV to PTV and OAR margins and volume of PTV for the corresponding margins, and d) study th

Europeiska rådets förslag till ett direktiv om tillbörlig aktsamhet för företag i fråga om hållbarhet (”Förslaget”) syftar till att införa skyldigheter för vissa företag (”Företag/Företaget”) relaterat till hållbarhet. Ett av skälen till Förslaget var framväxten av globala värdekedjor, som tenderar att ge upphov till kränkningar av mänskliga rättigheter. Förlagan till Förslaget var Förenta nationeThe European Council’s proposal for a corporate sustainability due diligence directive (the “Proposal”) aims to introduce obligations and respon-sibilities for some companies (“Company/Companies”) related to sustainability matters. Part of the reasons for the Proposal was the emergence of global value chains, which are prone to contain human rights violations. The model for the Proposal was the Un
