  1. 1. Revisiting the urban block in the light of climate change : A case study of Budapest

    Author : Csilla V Gál; Peter Land; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Since the beginning of the twentieth century, the urban block configuration of free-standing buildings has been deemed superior to other built forms, as it provided the necessities of modern healthy living: sunlight and fresh air. In light of climate change, the dissertation aims to reevaluate these long held beliefs and to reintroduce microclimate as an urban design consideration. READ MORE

  2. 2. Enterprise Architecture for Information System Analysis : Modeling and assessing data accuracy, availability, performance and application usage

    Author : Närman Per; Mathias Ekstedt; Pontus Johnson; Sjaak Brinkkemper; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Enterprise Architecture; Metamodeling; Decision-making; Data Accuracy; Service Availability; Service Performance; Technology Acceptance Model; Task Technology Fit;

    Abstract : Decisions concerning IT systems are often made without adequate decision-support. This has led to unnecessary IT costs and failures to realize business benefits. The present thesis presents a framework for analysis of four information systems properties relevant to IT decision-making. READ MORE

  3. 3. Forest edge development : management and design of forest edges in infrastructure and urban environments

    Author : Björn Wiström; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates design guidelines and management systems for the development of stationary forest edges with a graded profile in infrastructure and urban environments. The spatial restriction for the edge to move forward caused by human land use counteracts the natural dynamics and development patterns of graded forest edges. READ MORE

  4. 4. Tree inventories in the urban environment : methodological development and new applications

    Author : Johan Östberg; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Urban tree inventories are being employed to an increasing extent by a diverse group of users for a wide range of applications. This has resulted in large numbers of different parameters being recorded and a variety of methods being used by researchers and practitioners. READ MORE

  5. 5. Analysis of enterprise IT service availability : Enterprise architecture modeling for assessment, prediction, and decision-making
