    Abstract : Construction sites are facing challenges with high power peaks due to electrificationof heavy equipment where potential consequences are increased power tariffs locallyand risk of limited power supply. Another development is an increased intermittentpower supply due to more wind- and solar power in the electricity system, whichcauses price fluctuations. READ MORE

  2. 2. Optimal Order Placement Using Markov Models of Limit Order Books

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Max Oliveberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Optimal order placement; Limit order book; Markov; Optimal orderläggning; Orderbok; Markov;

    Abstract : We study optimal order placement in a limit order book. By modelling the limit order book dynamics as a Markov chain, we can frame the purchase of a single share as a Markov Decision Process. Within the framework of the model, we can estimate optimal decision policies numerically. The trade rate is varied using a running cost control variable. READ MORE

  3. 3. Exploring Environmentally Sustainable Last-Mile Deliveries in Sweden
