    Keywords : loess; palaeoclimate; Lizard Peninsula; Isles of Scilly; palaeoprecipitation; magnetic susceptibility; loess; paleoklimat; Lizard-halvön; Scillyöarna; historisk årsmedelnederbörd; magnetisk susceptibilitet;

    Abstract : Loess is a silty material produced via glacial grinding and its deposition is usually associated with colder periods when there is a considerable increase in atmospheric dust transport. The magnetic susceptibility of loess-palaeosol sequences has been the subject of extensive research within palaeoclimatology as it has proven to be reliable climate proxy. READ MORE

  5. 4. Rapid Estimation of Energy Consumption for Embedded Software

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Benjamin Olayinka; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Energy consumption is an important parameter very early in the design phase for embedded systems, especially battery powered systems. To obtain a cycle-accurate estimation of a program’s energy consumption, the program must be compiled and simulated on the target architecture, but this requires a hardware specification and complete code which may not be available early in the design phase.

  6. 5. Adding Personality to Fantasy Creatures : Using animal motion references

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Isabel Håkansson; [2019]
    Keywords : Creatures; animation; personality; believability; human-animal studies;

    Abstract : Fantasy creatures are an essential part of many games, but while there are several studies focusing on body language and how expressive gaming companions may enhance the player’s experience, creatures and animals are rarely the focal points. Personality is closely related to believability, which is what most game developers work towards hence believability may improve the gaming experience. READ MORE
