2. 1. Public transport meets smart mobility : Roles and relationships shaping driverless shuttles and MaaS

   Author : Kelsey Oldbury; Karolina Isaksson; Christina Lindkvist; Sara Brorström; KTH; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Smart mobility; public transport; governance; planning; Mobility as a Service; driverless shuttles; Urbana och regionala studier; Urban and Regional Studies;

   Abstract : This licentiate thesis investigates the development of two aspects of smart mobility, driverless shuttles and Mobility as a Service (MaaS) in relation to public transport. Smart mobility has emerged as a term to describe and label a group of changes unfolding in the transport sector, such as the role out of automated vehicles, electrification, the spread of platforms and new types of shared services,as well as new concepts to integrate multiple forms of mobility, often referred toas Mobility as a Service (or MaaS).

4. 2. Energy Efficient and Programmable Architecture for Wireless Vision Sensor Node

   Author : Muhammad Imran; Mattias O’ Nils; Bernhard Rinner; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wireless Vision Sensor Node; Smart camera; Wireless Vision Sensor Networks; Architecture; Video coding.;

   Abstract : Wireless Vision Sensor Networks (WVSNs) is an emerging field which has attracted a number of potential applications because of smaller per node cost, ease of deployment, scalability and low power stand alone solutions. WVSNs consist of a number of wireless Vision Sensor Nodes (VSNs). READ MORE

5. 3. Cost-efficient integration of variable renewable electricity - Variation management and strategic localisation of new demand

   Author : Viktor Walter; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; flexibility measures; Energy system modelling; smart energy systems; variation management strategies; variable renewable electricity;

   Abstract : The aim of this work was to improve our understanding of how wind power and solar photovoltaics (PV) can be integrated into the European electricity system in a cost-efficient manner. For this, a techno-economic, cost-minimising model of the electricity system is refined for a number of case studies. READ MORE

6. 4. The Internet of Things: Projects-Places-Policies

   Author : Xu Xiangxuan; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Internet of Things; digital service development; knowledge-intensive business services; EU ICT policy; smart public bike sharing; geography of knowledge; digital economy; geography of innovation;

   Abstract : The ongoing transition from the Internet age to the Internet of Things age is a paradigm shift of knowledge production and interactions: information and knowledge can be produced and disseminated either without or with very little human interventions. Non-human actors are given cognitive abilities, thus joining with humans to become the producers and carriers of knowledge, especially more tacit type of knowledge. READ MORE

7. 5. (Re-)shaping regional economies : Regional innovation system dynamics and new industrial path development
