Abstract: Title: Intelligent housing. Author: Tobias Nilsson, Student at Lund University. Director: Petter Wallentén, Senior Lecturer at the Department of Building Physics, Lund University. Examiner: Mats Dahlblom, Lecturer at the Department of installation and climate con-trol, Lund University. Problem identification: • What techniques and systems are making homes intelligent? • What opportunitie

nvestigating the Swedish stock market, we find value stocks to have significantly outperformed growth stocks during the period of 1993 to 2017. As value stocks are found to be riskier during bad states of the economy, the existence of the value premium can be partly attributed to time-varying risk. Value betas are anticyclical, while growth betas exhibit a procyclical pattern. Controlling for time

Sustainability reporting has become the primary measure of corporate sustainability in the EU, with increasing awareness among companies about the importance of disclosing sustainability matters. Concurrently, the European Union has enacted several pieces of legislation regarding sustainability reporting, notably the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive. While blockchain technology initial

This thesis explores the positioning of internal crisis communication in relation to external communication, specifically within the context of governmental crisis response. Guided by the case of the Lebanon crisis in 2024, this study investigates how crisis experts from a European Ministry of Foreign Affairs interpret internal communication across the three phases of crises, drawing on the Rhetor

OBJECTIVES: To investigate sick leave and disability pension in working-age subjects with knee osteoarthritis (OA) compared with the general population. METHODS: Population-based cohort study: individual-level inpatient and outpatient Skåne Health Care Register data were linked with data from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency. In 2009 all working-age (16-64 years) Skåne County residents who i

The society of today is highly dependent on technical infrastructures. Several incidents around the world the last decades have clearly highlighted the major effects technical infrastructure breakdowns have on life, health and economy of society. The vulnerabilities inherent in our technical infrastructures must be addressed in a proactive manner; it is not feasible to wait for major incidents to

The paper presents a review of the scientific literature on computer modeling of socio-technical systems. The aim is to briefly review and discuss modeling approaches that are suitable for the simulation of socio-technical systems, specifically in the context of risk and vulnerability analysis of critical infrastructures. It is found that seven main socio-technical modeling approaches can be disce

This report is a first attempt to use the design perspective we have developed in earlier reports in this series (Brehmer & Tehler, 2013: Tehler & Brehmer, 2013) in practical design of a system that would help Swedish County Administration Boards to meet their area responsibility in cases of major crises and accidents in their counties. The work starts with the development of a design hier

Integration of disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) is widely recognized as a solution for reducing the risk and impacts of disasters. However, successful integration seems elusive, and the two goals continue to function in isolation and in parallel. This article provides empirical insights into the perceived effects of separating government institutions for DRR and CC

The evaluation of simulated disasters (for example, exercises) and real responses are important activities. However, little attention has been paid to how reports documenting such events should be written. A key issue is how to make them as useful as possible to professionals working in disaster risk management. Here, we focus on three aspects of a written evaluation: how the object of the evaluat

The present paper seeks to investigate the extent and nature of organizational interdependencies in recovery operations. It focuses on the recovery following the Boxing day tsunami in 2004 in Tamil Nadu, India. It uses the theoretical framework from infrastructure interdependencies to a disaster recovery setting. It takes a case study approach and is based on eighteen interviews conducted in Tamil

Accidents nearby work zones are a persistent road safety problem in many European countries.

Platform ecosystems include complementary product markets that are creating unprecedented business oppor-tunities. Competition within complementary product markets is increasingly intense and fast-changing, and this leads to increased complexity in designing strategies to gain competitive advantage. Prior literature has exten-sively analyzed the key drivers of platform adoption by end users. Recen
