  2. 11. Towards Sustainable Bioenergy - Governance, Resource potentials and Trade-offs

    Author : Oskar Englund; Evelyne Thiffault; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sustainability standards; trade-offs; Bioenergy; biodiversity; governance; biomass potentials; certification;

    Abstract : The global energy system needs to be transformed from fossil dependent to renewable, to cope with the challenges of resource scarcity and climate change. Bioenergy can play an important role in this transformation, but land is scarce, and uncontrolled bioenergy expansion could have unacceptable consequences. READ MORE

  4. 12. In the name of safety : power, politics and the constitutive effects of local governing practices in Sweden

    Author : Jennie Brandén; Malin Rönnblom; Linda Sandberg; Christine Hudson; Emilia Palonen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Safety; unsafety; governmentality; political ethnography; public space; safety walks; participation; community; certification; security guards; private security; patrolling; Sweden; statskunskap; political science; genusvetenskap; gender studies;

    Abstract : In a time of uncertainty and risk, safety has become an increasingly significant concern. In Sweden, a powerful discourse around public safety has developed in recent years, moving it to the top of the political agenda. READ MORE

  5. 13. Risks Related to the Use of Software Tools when Developing Cyber-Physical Systems : A Critical Perspective on the Future of Developing Complex, Safety-Critical Systems

    Author : Fredrik Asplund; Martin Törngren; Jad El-Khoury; John McDermid; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automation; Certification; Process Risks; Safety; Safety-Critical; Standards; Support Environments; Tool Integration; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : The increasing complexity and size of modern Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) has led to a sharp decline in productivity among CPS designers. Requirements on safety aggravate this problem further, both by being difficult to ensure and due to their high importance to the public. READ MORE

  6. 14. Tool Integration and Safety : A Foundation for Analysing the Impact of Tool Integrationon Non-functional Properties

    Author : Fredrik Asplund; Martin Törngren; Jad El-khoury; Jakob Axelsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tool Integration; Integrated Development Environments; Embedded Systems; Safety Standards; Certification; Qualification; Systems Thinking; System Safety; STAMP; STPA;

    Abstract : The increasing complexity of embedded systems development is becoming difficult to handle with development environments based on disjoint engineering tools. Support for interactions between various engineering tools, especially through automated means, has therefore received an increased amount of attention during the last few years. READ MORE

  7. 15. Adding Fuel to the Fire : North-South dynamics in the geographies of transport energy: the case of EU biofuels

    Author : David Harnesk; LUCSUS; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; energy geography; geopolitics; territorialisation; climate change mitigation; transport; biofuels; agrofuels; European Union EU ; certification; sustainability criteria; sustainability science; energi; geografi; geopolitik; territorialisering; klimatomställning; transport; biodrivmedel; biobränsle; Europeiska Unionen; certifiering; hållbarhetskriterier; hållbarhetsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Since the 2000s, the European Union (EU) has promoted biofuels for transport to achieve climate change mitigation, and rural development in the global South. In contrast, critiques have argued that biofuel promotion impedes more meaningful mitigation while also resulting in dispossession of land and loss of labour opportunities in the global South.
