Jupiter System Partner is currently working on a product idea called Information Logistics. The product focuses on collecting information via modules from several services in an enterprise system. The product will be based upon financial systems which can be customized via modules. Specifically, the product will be based upon their existing system called eSecretary which extends the economy system ...

Electricity spot markets and other financial markets are complex systems, and it is difficult to forecast their behaviour, especially uncontrolled and unmanageable situations, such as power crises and deflation of financial bubbles. An energy crisis is any price rise in the supply of energy resources to an economy. It has undesirable consequences, occasionally irreversible. The most known of these ...

Norway is known for its steep mountains and many fjords. This landscape provides the potential for large rock-slope failures (RSFs) which, in turn, can cause other catastrophic hazards, e.g. tsunamis. In Troms County, northern Norway, many RSFs are found east and west of the Lyngen peninsula, within an area of discontinuous permafrost. The RSF at Adjet is located southeast of the Lyngen peninsula. ...

In this thesis the entire process of Fourier Contour Analysis have been investigated for potential sources of bias. No potential biases has been found when creating the contour, however it has been shown there is a slight bias in which otoliths get invalidated by breakage. A probablity based sampling strategy has been suggested instead of the previously used stratification based. It has been shown ...

Tre kanjoner på kontinentalskråningen utenfor Lofoten er studert ut fra multistråle batymetridata, høyoppløselig seismiske data og foto av havbunnssedimenter. Formålet med denne studien er å diskutere dannelse, utviklingen av og den yngste aktiviteten i de tre kanjonene. To hovedhypoteser vedrørende kanjoners dannelse råder i dag; dannelse fra bunn av kontinentalskråningen og oppover eller fra ...

Two gravity cores JM06-024-GC3 and JM07-049-GC1 from Smeerenburgfjorden at the northwestern corner of Svalbard have been investigated for the distribution pattern of the benthic foraminiferal faunas. The oxygen and carbon isotope values in benthic foraminifera were analysed and together with other proxy data such as ice rafted debris (IRD), were used in order to reconstruct the paleoceanography and ...

This thesis analyzed P-Cable high-resolution 3D seismic data from the Bear Island Fault Complex in the southwestern Barents Sea acquired during a Helmer Hanssen cruise in 2012. Hence, the thesis is divided into two parts: the first part of the thesis focuses on the steps taken during the processing of the raw seismic data from the Lundin 2012 Area-A survey located at the Bear Island Trough Fault ...

In this thesis we first give a survey of linear error-correcting codes, and how many of their most important properties only depend on the matroids derived from their parity check matrices. We also introduce the Stanley-Reisner ring associated to the simplicial complex of the independent sets of a matroid. We then recall in particular how some important properties of linear codes, including their ...

Scientists and engineers require ever more powerful software and hardware to analyze data and build models. Unfortunately, current solutions to the problem are often hard to use for scientists that are not software engineers. And software engineers often do not have the mathematical background to understand the scientific problem to solve. This thesis describes MORTAL, a new general-purpose ...

Strukturelle element i berggrunnen kan ha stor betydning for utvikling av ustabile fjellparti og fjellskred. I dette studiet vil det fokuseres på hvilken rolle strukturelle element i berggrunnen har hatt å si for skredhendelsene og deformasjonen i området og hvordan disse har preget det geologiske bildet. Det ustabile fjellpartiet er lokalisert på fjellet Adjet ved tettstedet Skibotn i Storfjord ...
