  2. 1. Securing the Memory Hierarchy from Speculative Side-Channel Attack

    Author : Christos Sakalis; Magnus Själander; Sven Karlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Modern high-performance CPUs depend on speculative out-of-order execution in order to offer high performance while also remaining energy efficient. However, with the introduction of Meltdown and Spectre in the beginning of 2018, speculative execution has been under attack. READ MORE

  4. 2. Essays on Bank Funding Strategies

    Author : Natalia Kostitcyna; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; banking regulation; financial intermediation;

    Abstract : According to the European financial crisis database from July 31, 2017, there are 18 European countries that still have not got their systems back to normal. Despite crisis management being implemented in very few countries, formally the financial crisis is still in existence. A common accelerator of economic crises is excessive credit growth. READ MORE

  5. 3. Model Developments to Study Some Aspects of Improving Efficiencies in EAF Plants

    Author : Niloofar Arzpeyma; Mikael Ersson; Lauri Holappa; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to investigate some aspects of improvements with respect to the energy consumption and raw material selection as well as the understanding of the influence of uncertainties on the performance in electric arc furnace (EAF) plants. The effect of electromagnetic stirring on the scrap melting and post combustion capacity are investigated in two EAFs by using computation fluid dynamic (CFD) models. READ MORE

  6. 4. Thermo-electric temperature measurements in friction stir welding : Towards feedback control of temperature

    Author : Ana Magalhães; Gunnar Bolmsjö; Jeroen De Backer; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; FSW; Robotic; Temperature; TWT; Plunge; Control; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : Friction Stir Welding has seen a fast uptake in many industry segments. Mechanical properties superior to fusion welding, the ability to weld "unweldable" aluminium alloys and low distortion are often described as the main reasons for the fast industrial implementation of FSW. Most existing applications consist of long straight welding joints. READ MORE

  7. 5. Environing Technology : Swedish Satellite Remote Sensing in the Making of Environment 1969–2001

    Author : Johan Gärdebo; Nina Wormbs; Sabine Höhler; Edward Jones-Imhotep; KTH; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; COPUOS; environing; environmental diplomacy; infrastructure; satellite remote sensing; SPOT; Spot Image; sustainable development; Sweden; Swedish Space Corporation; History of Science; Technology and Environment; Historiska studier av teknik; vetenskap och miljö;

    Abstract : The state-owned Swedish Space Corporation established a satellite remote sensing infrastructure and defined uses for the technology both within and beyond Sweden during the latter part of the twentieth century. This thesis studies Swedish satellite remote sensing as an environing technology – a technology that environs, that produces environments and our perceptions of the environment. READ MORE
