Several governments recently adopted strategies to facilitate the development of artificial intelligence (AI), one of the reasons being the pursuit of sustainability – a claim with little scientific grounding so far. In this thesis, I strived to outline the scope of AI’s potentials by showing i) the limits of its theoretical and practical usefulness and ii) the political barriers to using it for s
The development of sports within the European Union (EU) has been blooming the latest century, especially in the football sector, which has been transformed into a multi-billion industry. The development of European football has attracted investors outside the EU into heavy investing in football clubs across Europe. This has enabled purchases of new talents and high profile players for astronomica
The aim is to develop a profound comprehension of what role knowledge plays in the process of integrating the internal knowledge within organizations with the external knowledge that can be found in the surrounding cluster initiatives. This research contains a qualitative case study which was developed by following an interpretative, abductive approach that granted the authors to work with theory
Increase of urbanization and climate change are one of the factors that have been highlighted to influence the change of urban runoff hydrograph. This is resulting in an increase in peak flow within an urban watershed. Downstream flooding is the main problem that arises. To solve this, the sustainable urban drainage system techniques are adopted for reducing peak flow and increase baseflow. This t
Increase of urbanization and climate change are one of the factors that have been highlighted to influence hydrography. This is resulting in an increase in peak flow within an urban watershed. Downstream flooding and increased pollution are the problems that arises. To solve this, the sustainable urban drainage system techniques are adopted for reducing peak flow and increase baseflow.

The goal of this Master's Thesis is to successfully detect and classify humans in a LiDAR data stream. The focus of the Thesis is on the detection and classification, not on the LiDAR technology. To classify humans machine learning was used and to train the machine learning model we collected our own data and annotated it. A custom software was made for speeding up the annotation process.
Abstract Title: Developing an Inventory Control Policy and Forecasting Model for an E- Commerce Company Authors: Patrik Lorentsson & Nilan Nabavieh Supervisor: Johan Marklund, Department of Industrial Management and Logistics Background: Increasingly competitive business environments forces companies to develop better control of the material flows in their supply chain. Inventories are oft
En av mekanismerna som ökar välståndet i ett samhälle är att avtal kommer till stånd mellan rationella nyttomaximerande aktörer. När avtal sluts ökar parternas välstånd och välståndet i samhället då avtalsobjektet efter avtalet ägs av den part som värdesätter den högst. En sådan transaktion frigör kvasiränta vilket kvantifierar ökningen av välståndet i samhället. Transaktioner kan dock förhindras One of the mechanisms that increase wealth in a society is that agreements are reached between rational utility-maximizing actors. When an agreement is entered into by the parties, the wealth of the parties and the society increase, since the contract object after the agreement is owned by the party that values it most. Such a transaction frees quasi-interest, which quantifies the increase of weal
An investigation into the use of statistical texture analysis in combination with ultra high-frequency ultrasound for diagnosing Hirschsprung’s disease (HD); An illness that manifests itself through the absence of ganglia cells in lower parts of the intestine. Current diagnostic techniques carry a higher risk of long-term consequences in newborns and children which enables a new avenue of research
In this thesis the WKB-approximation is used to simulate the tunneling current for an Esaki nanowire diode and the result is compared to data from Esaki nanowire diodes grown with MOVPE. The WKB-approximation with triangular potential barrier predicts a strong increase of the tunneling current as a function of the doping densities and at the highest doping levels it gives lower tunneling distances
När företag i intressegemenskap genomför värdeöverföringar över nations-gränser genom transaktioner som inte skulle ägt rum mellan oberoende parter, kan skattemyndigheter tillämpa så kallade korrigeringsregler. Då justerar man upp resultatet för företaget som genomförde överföringen ge-nom felaktig prissättning, och kan sedan beskatta den vinsten som skulle funnits där. För att undvika onödiga kosWhen associated enterprises move profits across national borders through transactions that would not take place between independent parties, tax aut-horities may apply so-called transfer pricing rules. They will adjust the results of the company that performed the transfer by incorrect pricing ar-rangements, and tax the profit that would have been there, were it not for the incorrect transfer pric
The goal of this Master’s Thesis is to investigate the implementation of cryptographic algorithms for IoT and how these encryption systems can be integrated in a NarrowBand IoT platform. Following 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) specifications, the Evolved Packet System (EPS) Encryption Algorithms (EEA) and EPS Integrity Algorithms (EIA) have been implemented and tested. The latter are b
Purpose/Background: Utilizing proton therapy (PT) for treatment of Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) has demonstrated favorable features, particularly a reduced dose to organs at risk (OAR) in comparison with photon radiotherapy. However, there is a coherent complexity with PT including its uncertainties, such as range-uncertainties and set-up variations as protons are highly sensitive to tissue density var
This thesis creates multiple indices to score and rank developing countries with regard to their suitability for engaging in debt-for-climate swaps, and thus identify the most suitable country candidates. The origin of debt-for-climate swaps lies in the 1980s, and after a period of diminished use and attention they have become a topic of discussion again, especially in the last two years. Desp
Kubernetes is a container orchestration platform growing ever more popular, and as the software industry shifts into the container cloud, security will become paramount. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) systems cata- log and provide references to known vulnerabilities. The goal of this thesis is to systematically evaluate the security situation of Kubernetes through common mitigatio
