  1. 1. Towards a Sustainable Biomass and Waste Refinery Based on Pyrolysis Combined with a Pretreatment Process

    Author : Yuming Wen; Weihong Yang; Pär Jönsson; Tobias Richards; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pyrolysis; anaerobic digestion; hydrothermal carbonization; refinery; biomass; waste; kinetics; LCA; Energiteknik; Energy Technology; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Some of the naturally accumulated biomass and the massive production of waste by human activities have caused serious environmental problems. The degradation of biomass and waste is one of the main greenhouse gasses (GHG) emission sources. READ MORE

  2. 2. QoS Driven Coordinated Management of Resources to Save Energy in Multi-Core Systems

    Author : Mehrzad Nejat; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Re-configurable Core Architecture; Dynamic Voltage-Frequency Scaling DVFS ; Energy Efficiency; Quality-of-Service QoS ; Resource Management; Cache Partitioning;

    Abstract : Reducing the energy consumption of computing systems is a necessary endeavor. However, saving energy should not come at the expense of degrading user experience. To this end, in this thesis, we assume that applications running on multi-core processors are associated with a quality-of-service (QoS) target in terms of performance constraints. READ MORE

  3. 3. A Sociology of Empowerment : The Relevance of Communicative Contexts for Workplace Change

    Author : Linda Weidenstedt; Charlotta Stern; Jens Rydgren; Jean Bartunek; Stockholms universitet; []

    Abstract : This thesis consists of four self-contained essays on portfolio behavior and asset pricing.The first Essay employs portfolio theory to study the balance sheet composition of theSwedish Manufacturing Industry 1965-90. READ MORE

  5. 5. Towards Runtime-Assisted Cache Management for Task-Parallel Programs

    Author : Madhavan Manivannan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; task parallelism; cache hierarchy; runtime system; dead blocks; multi-core architecture; sharing patterns;

    Abstract : Architects have adopted the shared memory model that implicitly manages cache coherence and cache capacity in hardware, mainly to aid programmability of multi-core architectures. The hardware mechanisms are however prone to inefficiencies because they are not tailored to the behavior of individual parallel applications. READ MORE
