1. Open Source Vendors’ Business Models
Sammanfattning : It may seem controversial that open-source software (OSS), i.e. software created by voluntary contributions that is available to use, change, and distribute for free, can be utilized for business purposes. Yet, for some firms, commercial OSS software products are the primary source of revenue. LÄS MER

3. Microphysical Properties of Snow Crystals Using Ground-Based In-Situ Instrumentation : Hunting Snowflakes
Sammanfattning : Understanding what happens to hydrometeors, such as atmospheric snow particles (ice crystals, snow crystals, and snowflakes) in clouds is crucial for improving meteorolog-ical forecast and climate models. Consequently, improved predictions of the precipitation amount reaching the ground (snowfall) require accurate knowledge of the microphysical properties of ice crystals, such as their size, cross-sectional area, shape, fall speed, and mass.

4. Analysis of Arctic ice cloud properties using in-situ and remote sensing measurements
Sammanfattning : Cirrus clouds play an important role in the radiation balance of the atmosphere as theycan have a warming and cooling effect. The resulting net radiation effect depends ontheir micro- and macrophysical properties such as particle size, shape, and numberconcentration. LÄS MER
5. Vetenskapens verklighet : Om motsättningen mellan realism och konstruktivism i vetenskapsfilosofin
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the conflict between a constructivist and a realist understanding of scientific theories. It focuses on the constructivism formulated by Thomas S. Kuhn and the realism formulated by Richard Boyd, but also relates these conceptions to other forms of constructivism and realism described in the literature. LÄS MER
