   Keywords : quantitative easing; QE; quantitative tightening; QT; monetary policy; macroeconomics; stability; sustainability; federal funds rate; FFR; genuine progress indicator; GPI; producer price index; PPI; inflation;

   Abstract : The purpose of this study is to examine whether the implementation of quantitative easing (QE) and quantitative tightening (QT) in the United States has detracted from the integrity of the country’s macroeconomic environment. In other words, does QE impact macroeconomic stability? Then, evaluate implications and externalities of stability as they relate to sustainability efforts. READ MORE

3. 2. Mapping of Material & Conversion Parameters of Packaging Production – Boardio®

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

   Author : Yusuf Qasem; Younes Chraibi Ottosson; [2022]
   Keywords : Chemical Engineering; Packaging; Packaging Production; Paperboard; Converting; Lamination; Extrusion; Die-cutting; X-ray tomography; GPI; Creasing; Perforation; Tensile Strength; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : With an increased demand for sustainable packaging solutions for the ever-growing FMCG market, fiber-based systems rise as an answer to phasing out plastics in packages and reducing the humanity’s climate footprint. However, constructing a packaging solution largely consisting of paperboard comes with its challenges, such as integrating functionalities in the anisotropic paperboard that formerly were provided by a fundamentally different materials with divergent mechanical properties, being isotropic polymers.

4. 3. Comparative analysis of linear and circular manufacturing system paradigms for a steel-based product. : A case study of a mailbox manufacturing company

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för skog och träteknik (SOT)

   Author : SAMUEL ALAGBADA; [2022]
   Keywords : The manufacturing system; green supply chain management circular economy; life cycle analysis; cumulative energy demand; global warming potential.;

   Abstract : The manufacturing industry has exerted a tremendous impact on the natural environment. The aim of this thesis is to evaluate the consequences of shift from linear manufacturing system to circular manufacturing system in order to decouple the environmental burden of production and consumption process in relation to quantity of carbon footprint, cumulative energy demand, natural resource consumption, waste generated and recovered presently.

5. 4. Integrating SkePU's algorithmic skeletons with GPI on a cluster

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Programvara och system

   Author : Joel Almqvist; [2022]
   Keywords : SlePU; cluster; GPI; MPI; OpenMP; parallel programming; HPC; algorithmic skeletons; distributed computing; SkePU; kluster; GPI; MPI; OpenMP; parallellprogrammering; HPC; algoritmiska skelett;

   Abstract : As processors' clock-speed flattened out in the early 2000s, multi-core processors became more prevalent and so did parallel programming. However this programming paradigm introduces additional complexities, and to combat this, the SkePU framework was created. READ MORE

6. 5. War is Peace : A Study of Relationship Between Gender Equality and Peacefulness of a State

   University essay from Högskolan i Jönköping/HLK, Globala studier

   Author : Alicja Ostrowska; [2015]

   Abstract : Based on the previous studies, the hypothesis of this research is that the higher the level of gender equality in a state, the higher level of its peacefulness. It is a quantitative study using linear regression analysis with three variables, namely Global Peace Index (GPI) as a dependent variable, Gender Inequality Index (GII) as an independent variable and Human Development Index (HDI) as a control variable.
