1. 1. The Speed of Clouds : Utilizing Adaptive Sampling to Optimize a Real-Time Volumetric Cloud Renderer

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

   Author : Emrik Hydén; [2023]
   Keywords : Volumetric clouds; Ray marching; Bilinear interpolation; Adaptive sampling; Unity3D; Volymetriska moln; Ray marching; Bilinjär interpolering; Adaptiv sampling; Unity3D;

   Abstract : Volumetric clouds are often used in video games in order to improve the realism or graphical quality of the game. However, in order to achieve real-time rendered clouds, optimizations have to be implemented as part of the rendering algorithm. READ MORE

3. 2. Development of methods and software for rapid quality control in fluoroscopy

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

   Author : Majid Khosamadi; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Background: Fluoroscopy is a common imaging technique which uses X-ray to derive a real time imaging of patient anatomy to determine diagnosis and positioning of patients for interventional procedures. It is therefore important that the fluoroscopy systems maintain their performance. READ MORE

4. 3. Design of a methodology to identify optimum PV configurations for small-scale modular solutions for tropical conditions

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : PAUL DUPONT DE DINECHIN; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The development of small-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) power plants is accelerating in most isolated regions, such as the Caribbean. Indeed, they offer a beneficial, ecological and modular alternative to reduce the important fossil fuel dependency of these countries. READ MORE

5. 4. Risk-adjusted Earned Value and Earned Duration Management models for project performance forecasting

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för industriell ekonomi

   Author : Ilektra-Georgia Apostolidou; Georgios Karmiris; [2019]
   Keywords : Project monitoring; Project forecasting; Financial risk; Earned Value Management; Earned Duration Management; Schedule Performance Index; Duration Performance Index; Cost performance Index; Program Performance Index; Risk Coefficient; Risk-adjusted Schedule Model; Risk-adjusted Cost Model; Risk-adjusted Man-hours Model; Statistical Analysis; Decision Support System;

   Abstract : Project control is essential to ensure that the investment on a project is providing the intended benefits and is valuable to the customers. Previous methods offer project performance monitoring and forecasting tools, but they lack accuracy and the associated techniques omit the project financial risk (any unplanned event that has an impact on schedule and budget); the main factor of project failure.
