1. 36. Incentives for energy efficiency measures in post-war multi-family dwellings

   Författare :Lovisa Högberg; Hans Lind; Kristina Grange; Anders Lindbom; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; energy efficiency; housing companies; sustainable renovation; residential buildings; split incentives; Business and economics; Ekonomi;

   Sammanfattning : Energy efficiency is an important question to society as well as to individuals and firms. Improving energy efficiency in the building sector is considered an important means to climate mitigation. LÄS MER

3. 37. QoS Driven Coordinated Management of Resources to Save Energy in Multi-Core Systems

   Författare :Mehrzad Nejat; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Re-configurable Core Architecture; Dynamic Voltage-Frequency Scaling DVFS ; Energy Efficiency; Quality-of-Service QoS ; Resource Management; Cache Partitioning;

   Sammanfattning : Reducing the energy consumption of computing systems is a necessary endeavor. However, saving energy should not come at the expense of degrading user experience. To this end, in this thesis, we assume that applications running on multi-core processors are associated with a quality-of-service (QoS) target in terms of performance constraints. LÄS MER

4. 38. Body Composition and Energy Expenditure in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

   Författare :Frode Slinde; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is increasing in Sweden as well as worldwide. The main cause of the disease is cigarette smoking. Almost 50 % of all COPD patients become underweight. LÄS MER

5. 39. The dancer : physical effort, muscle fibre types, and energy intake and expenditure

   Författare :Monica Dahlström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Children; dance; diet; exercise; exertion; female; fitness; muscle.;

   Sammanfattning : The aims of this thesis were: - to estimate aerobic fitness in dancers and analyse possible changes during a three-year dance course and after a detraining period; to compare different dance styles with regard to the duration of single exercises and the following rest periods; - to estimate the physical effort in dancers during training sessions in different styles of dance; - to compare the physical effort during training sessions in dance teachers with that of dance students; - to illuminate whether a deviating muscle fibre type distribution, if any, were training-induced or the result of selection of individuals with suitable fibre characteristics, muscle fibre type distribution was compared between children, at the very beginning of their professional dance training and dancers, who had performed professional dance training for 10 years. Moreover, muscle fibre type composition was analysed in dancers after detraining. LÄS MER

7. 40. Dynamic Management of Multi-Core Processor Resources to Improve Energy Efficiency under Quality-of-Service Constraints

   Författare :Mehrzad Nejat; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cache Partitioning; Dynamic Voltage-Frequency Scaling DVFS ; Energy Efficiency; Re-configurable Core Architecture; Multi-core Resource Management; Quality-of-Service QoS ;

   Sammanfattning : With the current technology trends, the number of computers and computation demand is increasing dramatically. In addition to different economic and environmental costs at a large scale, the operational time of battery-powered devices is dependent on how efficiently the computer processors consume energy.
