  1. 21. Measurement, Modeling, and Characterization for Energy-Efficient Computing

    Författare :Bhavishya Goel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; power-aware scheduling; power estimation; transactional memory; power measurement; power management; energy characterization;

    Sammanfattning : The ever-increasing ecological footprint of Information Technology (IT) sector coupled with adverse effects of high power consumption on electronic circuits has increased the significance of energy-efficient computing in the last decade. Making energy-efficient computing a norm rather than an exception requires that system designers and programmers understand the energy implications of their design and implementation choices.

  3. 22. Food, energy and the environment from a Swedish perspective

    Författare :Rebecka Engström; Göran Finnveden; Roland Clift; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Input-Output Analysis; Life Cycle Assessment; Sector; Consumption changes; Energy Analysis; Food Losses; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Sammanfattning : Det särskilda sektorsansvaret är en ordning inom miljöpolitiken som innebär att varje sektor har ansvar för att hantera de miljöproblem som orsakas inom sektorn. På grund av detta ansvar finns ett behov av att kartlägga miljöproblem från sektorer, att identifiera de viktigaste problemen och att hitta strategier för att minska miljöpåverkan. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Cytokines in Metabolic Functions

    Författare :Anna Benrick; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :IL-1; IL-6; LIF; obesity; fat mass; energy expenditure; hypothalamus; gp130 SNP; myocardial infarction;

    Sammanfattning : During infections, circulating cytokines are largely produced by immune cells. In healthy obese individuals, large parts of these circulating cytokines are produced in adipose tissue, for instance by macrophages that have accumulated there. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Wearable Solutions for P-Health at Work : Precise, Pervasive and Preventive

    Författare :Ke Lu; Kaj Lindecrantz; Afshin Samani; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wearable technology; occupational health; energy expenditure; smart textile; Tillämpad medicinsk teknik; Applied Medical Technology;

    Sammanfattning : With a demographic change towards an older population, the structure of the labor force is shifting, and people are expected to work longer within their extended life span. However, for many people, wellbeing has been compromised by work-related problems before they reach the retirement age. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Avian thermoregulation across age and seasons

    Författare :Fredrik Andreasson; Evolutionär ekologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ambient temperature; body temperature; Cyanistes caeruleus; energy expenditure; hypothermia; life-history theory; metabolic rate; Parus major; thermoregulation; trade-off; winter ecology;

    Sammanfattning : Animals constantly need to relate to prevailing environmental conditions and regulate their body temperature accordingly. Body temperature regulation in birds and mammals is inherently linked to energy expenditure and, thus, thermoregulation is a physiological mechanism that could trade-off with other costly processes, with potential long-term fitness consequences.
