    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; distributed systems; uncertainties; self-adaptation; QoS; collaboration; M-Learning; TEL; Mobile Learning; Distributed Systems; Uncertainties; Quality of Service; Self-Adaptation;

    Abstract : The presence of computer technologies in our daily life is growing by leaps and bounds. One of the recent trends is the use of mobile technologies and cloud services for supporting everyday tasks and the sharing of information between users. READ MORE

  4. 2. Managing uncertainties through efficient calculation of transients and harmonic propagation in power systems

    Author : Oscar Lennerhag; Math Bollen; Jan Lundquist; David Thomas; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Overvoltages; harmonics; uncertainties; stochastic methods; Electric Power Engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : The electric power system is undergoing changes including large-scale introduction of renewable energy sources together with HVDC/FACTS, changes in the network such as increased amount of high voltage cables, industrial electrification, and changes in the load composition. These changes will impact the system in different ways and lead to challenges that must be addressed to facilitate planning, dimensioning, and operation of the system in a secure and economical way.

  5. 3. Pathways to future cropland : Assessing uncertainties in socio-economic processes by applying a global land-use model

    Author : Kerstin Engstrom; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; land-use and land cover change; socio-economic modelling; scenarios; uncertainties;

    Abstract : Global agricultural production almost tripled within the last five decades. The production increase wasbased on expanding cropland and pastures, as well as the intensification of agriculture, including increased use ofhigh yielding crop varieties, machinery, irrigation, artificial fertilisers, and pesticides.
