  2. 1. No limits : the 20th century discourse of economic growth

    Author : Eva Friman; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; economic growth; growth discourse; development discourse; history of economics; environmental economics; ecological economics; ecomodernism; modernist economic ethos; narrative; power of language; limits to growth;

    Abstract : The breakthrough of the concept of economic growth in economics marks a paradigm shift in thinking about the economy and its place in 'reality.' This thesis analyzes the 20th century discourse of economic growth, focusing its unlimited connotations. The thesis consists of four case studies, two introductory parts and a concluding dis­cussion.

  4. 2. Statistical Learning, Dynamics and Control : Fast Rates and Fundamental Limits for Square Loss

    Author : Ingvar Ziemann; Henrik Sandberg; Raginsky Maxim; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Learning; Control Theory; Statistical Learning; Fundamental Limits; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Learning algorithms play an ever increasing role in modern engineering solutions. However, despite many recent successes, their performance in the context of dynamical and control systems is not exactly well-understood. READ MORE

  5. 3. Fundamental Estimation and Detection Limits in Linear Non-Gaussian Systems

    Author : Gustaf Hendeby; Fredrik Gustafsson; Niclas Bergman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Estimation; Detection; Linear systems; Non-Gaussian; Limits; GLR; CRLB; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Many methods used for estimation and detection consider only the mean and variance of the involved noise instead of the full noise descriptions. One reason for this is that the mathematics is often considerably simplified this way. READ MORE

  6. 4. Fundamental Limits in Wireless Wideband Networking

    Author : Tan Tai Do; Mikael Skoglund; Tobias Oechtering; Olav Tirkkonen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The rapid growth of the wireless communication industry recently does not only bring opportunities but also challenges on developing radio technologies and solutions that can support high data rate as well as reliable and efficient communications. Two fundamental factors that limit the transmission rate are the available transmit energy and the available bandwidth. READ MORE

  7. 5. Millimeter-wave Networking : Fundamental Limits, Scalable Algorithms, and Design Insights

    Author : Hossein Shokri-Ghadikolaei; Carlo Fischione; Gabor Fodor; Muriel Madard; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The current demands for extremely high data rate wireless services and the spectrum scarcity at the sub-6 GHz bands are forcefully motivating the use of the millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies. The main characteristics of mmWave communications are severe attenuation, sparse-scattering environment, huge bandwidth, vulnerability to obstacles and antenna misalignment, massive beamforming, and possible noise-limited operation.
