1. On the weightless economy: Evaluating ICT sectors in the European, Asian and African regions
Sammanfattning : One of the most distinctive characteristics of the weightless economy is the increasingly important role of the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sectors, which, according to the OECD (2009), consist of ICT products and media and content products. The ICT sectors have been identified as contributing significantly to the economy through production, measured by the value of the ICT outputs produced and the spillover effects to the other sectors, and the diffusion due to the higher penetration rate of ICT products and services and the impact of the end-users.

2. Constraint-based modeling of metabolism - interpreting predictions of growth and ATP synthesis in human and yeast
Sammanfattning : Growth is the primary objective of the cell. Diseases arise when cells diverge from a healthy growth-pattern. An increased understanding of cellular growth may thus be translated into improved human health. The cell requires materials and free energy (in the form of ATP) in order to grow, metabolism supplies the cell with this. LÄS MER
3. Exploiting Energy Awareness in Mobile Communication
Sammanfattning : Although evolving mobile technologies bring millions of users closer to the vision of information anywhere-anytime, device battery depletions hamper the quality of experience to a great extent. The massive explosion of mobile applications with the ensuing data exchange over the cellular infrastructure is not only a blessing to the mobile user, but also has a price in terms of rapid discharge of the device battery.

4. Advancing antiviral strategies against emerging RNA viruses by phenotypic drug discovery
Sammanfattning : Pathogenic RNA viruses can emerge from unexpected sources at unexpected times and cause severe disease in humans, as exemplified by the ongoing coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and Ebola virus (EBOV), Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) and Zika virus (ZIKV) outbreaks from the past decade. Despite the increasing impact of emerging viruses to health and economy worldwide, our preparedness to stand against these diseases is hampered by the lack of approved and effective antiviral therapies.

5. Energy Modelling and Fairness for Efficient Mobile Communication
Sammanfattning : Energy consumption and its management have been clearly identified as a challenge in computing and communication system design, where energy economy is obviously of paramount importance for battery powered devices. This thesis addresses the energy efficiency of mobile communication at the user end in the context of cellular networks. LÄS MER
