  1. 16. Opportunities for the Jatuwa community biogas plant : An energy demand survey and a field site examinationMinor Field Study

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Axel Öhman; Bill Edwall; [2018]
    Keywords : Biogas; energy demand; sustainable technology; Biogas; energibehov; hållbar energi;

    Abstract : De klimatförändringar som idag orsakar allt större problem för länder i Himalayaregionen har ökat beslutsfattares medvetenhet kring konsekvenserna som de ökande temperaturerna för med sig. När människor konsumerar energi från fossila bränslekällor ökar koncentrationen av bland annat koldioxid i atmosfären vilket bidrar till den växthuseffekt som sakta värmer upp jordens klimat.

  3. 17. Hydrologic modelling of the Zackenberg river basin : an applied study using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Malin Ahlbäck; [2018]
    Keywords : Greenland; SWAT; High Arctic; Distributed Hydrologic Modelling; GIS; surface Water; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Since the 1980s, the Arctic has experienced an amplified warming of more than twice the rate of the global-mean, leading to large-scale changes in the Arctic hydrologic system, ultimately having cascading feedbacks on the global climate. However, few of today’s distributed models manage to capture the complex processes in Arctic hydrology, and therefore, the aim of this thesis was to evaluate the usage of the distributed Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model, to see whether it could capture the different surface water paths and processes characterizing the Arctic water cycle.

  4. 18. Managed Distributed TensorFlow with YARN : Enabling Large-Scale Machine Learning on Hadoop Clusters

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

    Author : Tobias Johansson; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Apache Hadoop is the dominant open source platform for the storage and processing of Big Data. With the data stored in Hadoop clusters, it is advantageous to be able to run TensorFlow applications on the same cluster that holds the input data sets for training machine learning models.

  5. 19. Spark for HPC: a comparison with MPI on compute-intensive applications using Monte Carlo method

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Shen Huije; Tingwei Huang; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : With the emergence of various big data platforms in recent years, Apache Spark - a distributed large-scale computing platform, is perceived as a potential substitute for Message Passing Interface (MPI) in High Performance Computing (HPC). Due to the limitations in fault-tolerance, dynamic resource handling and ease of use, MPI, as a dominant method to achieve parallel computing in HPC, is often associated with higher development time and costs in enterprises such as Scania IT.

  6. 20. Visual Debugging of Dataflow Systems

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)

    Author : Fanti Machmount Al Samisti; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Big data processing has seen vast integration into the idea of data analysis in live streaming and batch environments. A plethora of tools have been developed to break down a problem into manageable tasks and to allocate both software and hardware resources in a distributed and fault tolerant manner. READ MORE
