    Abstract : Soft matter, here, liquids and polymers, have adaptability to a surrounding geometry. They intrinsically have advantageous characteristics from a mechanical perspective, such as flowing and wetting on surrounding surfaces, giving compliant, conformal and deformable behavior.

  4. 2. Scheduling and Optimization of Fault-Tolerant Embedded Systems

    Author : Viacheslav Izosimov; Zebo Peng; Petru Eles; Anton Cervin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Embedded systems; Real-Time systems; Design optimization; Fault tolerance; Transient faults; Soft errors; Computer and systems science; Data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Safety-critical applications have to function correctly even in presence of faults. This thesis deals with techniques for tolerating effects of transient and intermittent faults. Reexecution, software replication, and rollback recovery with checkpointing are used to provide the required level of fault tolerance. READ MORE

  5. 3. Cybersecurity Incident Response : A Socio-Technical Approach

    Author : Bilal Al Sabbagh; Stewart Kowalski; Louise Yngström; Mathias Ekstedt; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; cybersecurity incident response; SIEM; cybersecurity warning systems; socio-technical approach; organisation security culture; Computer and Systems Sciences; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the cybersecurity incident response problem using a socio-technical approach. The motivation of this work is the need to bridge the knowledge and practise gap that exists because of the increasing complexity of cybersecurity threats and our limited capability of applying cybersecurity controls necessary to adequately respond to these threats.

  6. 4. A multi-modal systems extension to soft systems methodology

    Author : Anita Mirijamdotter; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Informatik; Informatics;

    Abstract : This thesis develops a design method for social systems that do not fit the conventional industrial pattern and that consequently are not apt for regulation through mechanical means. It builds upon Soft Systems Methodology (SSM), one of the most widely used and well regarded of design methodologies. READ MORE

  7. 5. Money talks while volume and value should run the show : An evaluation of financial parameters for decision making duringmanufacturing system acquisition

    Author : Anders Johansson; Lars Pejryd; Linn Gustavsson Christiernin; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Value chain; Manufacturing system; Investment process; Economical decision support; Production; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : Market economic values have for the last decades been given an increasing role with the establishment of financial institutes and global organisations with a capitalistic focus as a consequence. As a counter reaction, the concept of sustainable development has emerged complementing the economic focus with environmental and social aspects. READ MORE
