    Abstract : Soft matter, here, liquids and polymers, have adaptability to a surrounding geometry. They intrinsically have advantageous characteristics from a mechanical perspective, such as flowing and wetting on surrounding surfaces, giving compliant, conformal and deformable behavior.

  2. 2. On Institutional Demands in Banking and the Exchange of Hard and Soft Accounting Information

    Author : Magnus Norberg; Fredrik Nilsson; Linda Wedlin; Mikael Wendschlag; Katarina Kaarbøe; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Banking; Institutional demands; Regulatory initiatives; Exchange; Accounting information; Hard information; Soft information; Financial regulation; KRITA; MiFID II; Financial robo-advising; Transactions; Relationship; Firms; Digitalisation; Tension; Business Studies; Företagsekonomi;

    Abstract : The overarching purpose of the thesis is to explore how institutional demands influence banks, which has been a core issue in banking research. This has become even more critical since the financial crisis of 2007–2009. READ MORE

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

    Author : Marc Girons Lopez; Jan Seibert; Sven Halldin; Thomas Grabs; Giuliano Di Baldassarre; Elena Toth; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; water management; data resolution; non-traditional data; floods; modelling; social memory; precipitation; runoff; social media; interpolation; data value; gestió de l’aigua; resolució de les dades; dades no tradicionals; inundacions; modelització; memòria social; precipitació; escorrentia; xarxes socials; interpolació; valor de les dades; avrinning; befolkningars minne; dataupplösning; datavärde; interpolering; mjuk information; modellering; nederbörd; sociala medier; vattenförvaltning; översvämning; gestión del agua; resolución de los datos; datos no tradicionales; inundaciones; modelización; memoria social; precipitación; escorrentía; redes sociales; interpolación; valor de los datos; Hydrology; Hydrologi;

    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

  4. 4. Towards Systemic Governance of Critical Infrastructure Protection : State and Relevance of a Swedish Case

    Author : Christine Große; Aron Larsson; Olof Björkqvist; Pär M. Olausson; Alexander Fekete; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systemic Thinking; Infrastructure; Governance; Critical Infrastructure Protection; Complex Systems; Soft Operations Research; design-oriented Information Systems Research; Integrative System Analysis; KISA; STYREL; Multi-level Planning; Adaption; Emergence; Entropy; Systemic Governance;

    Abstract : The protection of infrastructure that is critical to society’s functionality, survival and progression has gained significance for both national security and research because of its large-scale and interdependent nature. Critical infrastructure can be viewed as a complex, socio-technical system-of-systems that imposes extensive requirements on governance efforts to foster critical infrastructure protection (CIP), regardless of whether it involves public organisations, private organisations or both.

  5. 5. Scheduling and Optimization of Fault-Tolerant Embedded Systems

    Author : Viacheslav Izosimov; Zebo Peng; Petru Eles; Anton Cervin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Embedded systems; Real-Time systems; Design optimization; Fault tolerance; Transient faults; Soft errors; Computer and systems science; Data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Safety-critical applications have to function correctly even in presence of faults. This thesis deals with techniques for tolerating effects of transient and intermittent faults. Reexecution, software replication, and rollback recovery with checkpointing are used to provide the required level of fault tolerance. READ MORE
