1. 1. To Deploy, or Not to Deploy, That is the Question A qualitative study of the decision-making experiences of engineers deploying software changes in production

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

   Author : Jessica Ann DeVita; [2024]
   Keywords : Automation; Common ground; Complexity; Coordination; COVID19 pandemic; Deployment decision; Incident response; Mental model; Naturalistic decision-making; Phenomenology; Resilience; Risk; Software engineering; SRE; Strategy; Temporal reasoning; Uncertainty; Web operations; FLMU06; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The web services that millions of people count on require large-scale computer resources (servers, nodes, networking) and an intricate set of interdependent software services. Under pressure to continually improve these services, code and configuration changes are deployed hundreds or thousands of times every day. READ MORE

3. 2. Analysis of Atmospheric Muon Bundles with IceCube

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

   Author : Anna Selina Neyer; [2024]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This work is a preliminary study of the background of a search for dark, long-lived particles in the IceCube detector. The high flux of atmospheric muons in IceCube is considered background to the detector's primary science goal, which is to detect astrophysical neutrinos through the emission of Cherenkov radiation.

4. 3. A theoretical framework for interpretation and prediction of magneto-optical measurements

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialteori

   Author : Viktor Frilén; [2023]
   Keywords : moke; tmoke; lmoke; pmoke; magneto-optical effects; layered media; dielectric function; maxwells equations; dielectric tensor; linear respons; magnetism; light induced transistions; DFT; SO;

   Abstract : The interplay of experiments and theory is essential to deepen our understanding of magnetization dynamics. This thesis aims to serve as a bridge between these two aspects by establishing a mathematical framework that enables the computation of optical observable quantities based on theoretical models.

5. 4. A Machine Learning Approach on Analysis of Emission Spectra for Application in XFEL Experiments

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

   Author : Harald Agelii; [2023]
   Keywords : Structural biology; Machine learning; Neural networks; emission spectrum; XFEL; X-ray free electron laser; SFX; Serial femtosecond X-ray crystallography; Proteins; Diagnostics;

   Abstract : In this thesis we investigate two potential applications of machine learning in the context of X-ray imaging and spectroscopy of biological samples, particularly such using X-ray free electron lasers (XFEL). We first investigate the possibility of using an emission spectrum, recorded from a sample after being probed by an incident X-ray, as a diagnostic tool. READ MORE

6. 5. Conspiracy theories in cyberspace

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för data- och systemvetenskap

   Author : Damir Zizic; [2023]
   Keywords : Conspiracy theories; QAnon; disinformation; social media; cyber warfare;

   Abstract : The introduction of social media platforms influenced the social dynamics by changing the way individuals are exposed to information. The straightforwardness of social media communication resulted in an overwhelming amount of information for users, and the variety of sources of the information is limiting users’ ability to assess what information is genuine and what is disinformation.
