  1. 1. Conceptual Politics in Practice : How Soft Power Changed the World

    Author : Stephanie Christine Winkler; Mark Rhinard; Linus Hagström; Patrick Thaddeus Jackson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; academia policy nexus; alliance; China; concepts; critical concept studies; decline; feedback loops; interaction effects; International Relations; Japan; power shift; power; reification; rise; science; security; sharp power; smart power; soft power; travel; United States; internationella relationer; International Relations;

    Abstract : Concepts are a key feature of academic research and international politics. Despite the fact that interpreting, classifying and communicating the world through concepts has far-reaching social and political consequences, their various roles and complex dynamics remain poorly understood in International Relations (IR).

  2. 2. May the power be with you : managing power-performance tradeoffs in cloud data centers

    Author : Jakub Krzywda; Erik Elmroth; Per-Olov Östberg; Ahmed Ali-Eldin; Tarek F. Abdelzaher; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cloud computing; data centers; power efficiency; power budgeting; application performance;

    Abstract : The overall goal of the work presented in this thesis was to find ways of managing power-performance tradeoffs in cloud data centers. To this end, the relationships between the power consumption of data center servers and the performance of applications hosted in data centers are analyzed, models that capture these relationships are developed, and controllers to optimize the use of data center infrastructures are proposed.

  3. 3. Frequency response by wind farms in power systems with high wind power penetration

    Author : Mattias Persson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; inertia estimation; frequency control; power system stability; wind power integration; Power system; synthetic inertia;

    Abstract : The integration of variable speed wind turbines (VSWT) in power systems is increasing in order to reduce the emission of green house gases. This increase of power electronic converter interfaced generation causes a decrease of power system inertia, increasing the risk of load shedding and system frequency instability. READ MORE

  4. 4. Accurate Leakage-Conscious Architecture-Level Power Estimation for SRAM-based Memory Structures

    Author : Minh Quang Do; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SRAM Power Modeling; Deep Submicron; Power-Performance Estimation Tool; VLSI; Power Estimation; DSP Architecture; CMOS; Cache Power Modeling;

    Abstract : Following Moore’s Law, technology scaling will continue providing integration capacityof billions of transistors for IC industry. As transistors keep shrinking in size, leakagepower dissipation dramatically increases and gradually becomes a first-class design constraint. READ MORE

  5. 5. CO2 capture from oxy-fuel combustion power plants

    Author : Yukun Hu; Jinyue Yan; Erik Dahlquist; Mats Westermark; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CO2 capture; oxy-fuel combustion; flue gas recycle; evaporative gas turbine; techno- economic evaluation;

    Abstract : To mitigate the global greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions, carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and storage (CCS) has the potential to play a significant role for reaching mitigation target. Oxy-fuel combustion is a promising technology for CO2 capture in power plants. READ MORE
