2. 11. Identifying Strategic Initiatives to Promote Urban Sustainability

   Author : Carina Weingaertner; Örjan Svane; Karolina Isaksson; Dag Kittang; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sustainable urban development; transformative change; research methodology development; situations of opportunity; field of options; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : is thesis explores the overarching topic of the capacity of strategic urban development decisions and initiatives (including planning initiatives) to positively and powerfully influence the ability of a city to promote sustainable patterns of development. The work is presented in six scientific papers, the first four of which focus on the development of an inter-disciplinary conceptual framework and research methodology. READ MORE

4. 12. Laser spectroscopic analysis of atmospheric gases in scattering media

   Author : Mikael Sjöholm; Atomfysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fjärranalys; Remote sensing; Laser spectroscop; Scattering of light; Diode lasers; acoustics; optics; Electromagnetism; optik; akustik; Elektromagnetism; Optical absorption; Nondestructive testing: optical; Interdisciplinary applications of physics; Laser technology; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Atomic and molecular physics; LIDAR remote sensing; Laserteknik;

   Abstract : Laser spectroscopic techniques for gas analysis under various influences of light scattering are explored in a wide spectral range from the ultraviolet to the infrared. The techniques rely on spectrally narrow-band light sources that are used in differential optical absorption measurements. READ MORE

5. 13. Algorithm-Architecture Co-Design for Digital Front-Ends in Mobile Receivers

   Author : Isael Diaz; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Architecture Optimization; Digital Front End; Wireless Communication; Mobile terminal;

   Abstract : The methodology behind this work has been to use the concept of algorithm-hardware co-design to achieve efficient solutions related to the digital front-end in mobile receivers. It has been shown that, by looking at algorithms and hardware architectures together, more efficient solutions can be found; i.e. READ MORE

6. 14. Navigating Open Polities for Change in Swedish Bilateral Development Cooperation Projects

   Author : Jenny Iao-Jörgensen; Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet; []
