3. 2. Exploring the Impact of Pseudo and Quasi Random Number Generators on Monte Carlo Integration of the Multivariate Normal Distribution

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Statistiska institutionen

   Author : Marcus Stolz; Jonathan Christopher; [2024]
   Keywords : Monte Carlo integration; Quasi monte carlo integration; Random number generation; Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : This thesis examines the effects of pseudo and quasi-random number generators on the accuracy and efficiency of Monte Carlo Integration in the case of the multivariate normal distribution. The study compares the performance of the Mersenne Twister (a pseudo-random number generator) with Sobol and Halton sequences (quasi-random number generators). READ MORE

4. 3. The Role of Technology Shifts in Urban Decarbonization Modelling : Scenario creation and implementation

   University essay from KTH/Energisystem

   Author : Batiste Fourniols; [2024]
   Keywords : Urban area; Decarbonization policies; Scenario modeling; District heating; Gas distribution network; Geospatial resolution; Stadsområde; utfasning av fossila bränslen; scenariomodellering; fjärrvärme; gasdistributionsnät; geospatial upplösning;

   Abstract : This work includes modelling of decarbonization scenarios at the scale of an urban area, providing policy insights and a methodology focusing on introducing district heating and maintaining the existing gas distribution network in a case study.
