   Abstract : Flooding is of great concern world-wide, causing damage to infrastructure, property and loss of life. Low-income countries, in particular, can be negatively affected by flood events due to their inherent vulnerabilities. Moreover, data to perform studies for flood risk management in low-income regions are often scarce or lacking sufficient quality. READ MORE

4. 2. Information Needs for Water Resource and Risk Management : Hydro-Meteorological Data Value and Non-Traditional Information

   Abstract : Data availability is extremely important for water management. Without data it would not be possible to know how much water is available or how often extreme events are likely to occur. The usually available hydro-meteorological data often have a limited representativeness and are affected by errors and uncertainties. READ MORE

5. 3. Nonlinear Quantile Regression for Longitudinal Data

   Author : Andreas Karlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bootstrap; dependent errors; median regression; Monte Carlo simulation; panel data; repeated measures; Statistics; Statistik; Biostatistics; Biostatistik;

   Abstract : The overall objective of the two papers in this thesis is to examine the properties of the weighted nonlinear quantile regression estimator for the analysis of longitudinal data. To this end, the question of which weights to be used, the bias of the estimator and the possibility to calculate confidence intervals has to be examined. READ MORE

6. 4. Data Importance in Power System Asset Management

   Author : Wadih Naim; Patrik Hilber; Miroslav Begovic; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Data availability; data quality; asset management; power systems; maintenance optimization; Datatillgänglighet; datakvalitet; tillgångsförvaltning; kraftsystem; underhållsoptimering; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : The current shift towards a higher degree of data-driven decision making in power system asset management highlights the importance of asset data. This thesis identifies, investigates, and proposes methods for data-related research gaps that are encountered by asset managers. These research gaps are in data availability and data quality.

7. 5. Multiple-Bit Errors in Computer Systems

   Author : Rolf Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fault sim ulation; fault tolerance; single event upsets; error-correcting codes; multiple-bit errors; transient faults; fault modelling; physical fault injection;

   Abstract : This thesis discusses the types of transient faults caused by heavy-ion or a-particle radiation that manifest as multiple-bit errors and how information redundancy techniques can achieve fault tolerance with respect to some classes of multiple-bit errors. The first part of the thesis considers the fault modelling problem, beginning with the problem of how single event upsets (SEUs) originating from faults in register cells in microprocessors manifest as primary errors.
