2. 1. CHALMEX FS-13 investigations for process implementation

   Author : Thea Lyseid Authen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transmutation; SolventExtraction; CHALMEX; Partitioning; GANEX;

   Abstract : From successive neutron absorption by uranium in nuclear reactors, transuranic elements such as neptunium, plutonium, americium and curium are produced. These elements are the main reason for the long-lived, highly radiotoxic and heat-producing nature of spent nuclear fuel. READ MORE

4. 2. Partitioning and persistence of volatile methylsiloxanes in aquatic environments

   Author : Dimitrios Panagopoulos; Matthew MacLeod; Annika Jahnke; Amelie Kierkegaard; Whelan Mick; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; siloxanes; organic carbon; sediment; partitioning; persistence; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

   Abstract : The presence of volatile methylsiloxanes (VMS) in the environment has raised concerns among environmental chemists and regulators about their persistence and the risks they may pose to the environment. This thesis explores the partitioning and persistence of VMS in aquatic environments. READ MORE

5. 3. Efficient reduction techniques for a large-scale Transmission Expansion Planning problem

   Author : Quentin Ploussard; Luis Olmos; Andres Ramos; Efraim Centeno; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy; electricity; transmission expansion planning; linear programming; integer linear programming; relaxation methods; clustering; dimension reduction; network theory graphs ; partitioning algorithms; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : The aim of Transmission Expansion Planning (TEP) studies is to decide which, where, and when new grid elements should be built in order to minimize the total system cost. The lumpiness of the investment decisions, together with the large size of the problem, make the problem very hard to solve. READ MORE

6. 4. 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

7. 5. Dynamic Management of Multi-Core Processor Resources to Improve Energy Efficiency under Quality-of-Service Constraints

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

   Abstract : With the current technology trends, the number of computers and computation demand is increasing dramatically. In addition to different economic and environmental costs at a large scale, the operational time of battery-powered devices is dependent on how efficiently the computer processors consume energy.
