This thesis investigates whether the unilateral credit valuation adjustment (CVA) of plain-vanilla interest rate swap portfolios can be approximated accurately using a pre- computed library of basis-swap CVAs, avoiding the cost of full Monte Carlo revaluation. The approximation is constructed to require only a yield curve, a swaption volatility surface, and counterparty CDS spreads as inputs. The

Universities are widely understood to be sites of free expression, knowledge-seeking institutions that serve the public good while encouraging personal development of individuals. They typically uphold and communicate institutional integrity and ethics, seeking to encourage open communication, equip students with critical thinking, and foster civil participation. For the Social Sciences, questions

Passive infrared sensors are widely used for lighting and building automation because they are inexpensive and low power, but they detect motion rather than presence. A person who sits still, reads, works at a desk, or sleeps can therefore disappear from the sensor state even though the room is still occupied. This thesis investigates whether a low-cost, battery-powered, privacy-preserving presenc

The role of diversity for the stability of ecosystems is a field traditionally focused on species diversity, rather than diversity within species. This study concerns the latter by investigating the spatial and temporal synchrony and abundance trends within the metapopulation of anadromous sea trout (Salmo trutta) in Scania, Sweden, that are brought up in different nursey streams but share the sam

Brädspel blir alltmer populära, vilket gör det ännu viktigare att deras regelböcker går att läsa och förstå. Denna uppsats syftar till att analysera språkbruket i strategiska brädspel i förhållande till klarspråk och forskning om instruerande text, men också att undersöka spelarnas uppfattning om spelens regelböcker. Metoden för undersökningen består av en textanalys av spelen Terraforming Mars, R

Early warning systems are a globally adopted adaptation strategy aimed at reducing the impact of increasingly frequent and severe disasters. Within these systems, warning communication and dissemination have been identified as critical gaps, undermining their effectiveness, as inadequate communication systems contribute significantly to disaster-related losses. Language can be a significant barrie

Bakgrund På grund av den rådande klimatkrisen måste Sverige göra omfattande klimatanpassningar för att skydda sig mot kommande och nuvarande effekter av klimatförändringarna. Ansvaret för arbetet tillfaller för det mesta Sveriges kommuner genom bland annat planmonopolet. Kommunerna kan söka finansiering för dessa typer av åtgärder genom matchade statsbidrag. Däremot är bidragsprocessen för de svenIn response to growing risks associated with climate change, Sweden must address the need for climate change adaptations. A central actor in addressing this is Swedish municipalities, due to their local planning monopoly and their ability to identify risks associated with local geographical conditions. However, studies have shown that there are several obstacles within the process of adapting to c

Byggsektorn står för en betydande del av Sveriges resursförbrukning och klimatpåverkan, vilket gör omställningen till en cirkulär ekonomi central för att nå miljö- och klimatmål. Arkitekten har en nyckelroll i denna omställning eftersom många avgörande beslut om materialval, bevarande och byggnaders livscykel fattas i de tidiga projektskeden. Samtidigt är det oklart hur arkitekter i Sverige faktThe construction sector in Sweden accounts for a significant share of resource use and climate impact, making circular economy a key strategy for reducing waste and achieving sustainability goals. This thesis investigates swedish architects and their role in promoting circular construction in Sweden, focusing on strategies, barriers, and opportunities. The study applies a qualitative method based

The factors identified in the empirical findings, and their enabling and constraining nature can be understood as exploitative or exploratory logics that drive AI-implementation toward either exploration or exploitation. The findings suggest that exploration and exploitation are intertwined rather than separate and opposing activities. Exploitative logics are present through the explorative work,

Likvärdig bedömning av elevtexter förutsätter en samsyn bland lärare från olika skolor avseende vilka textkvaliteter som elever förväntas använda i sitt skrivande av specifika texttyper. Syftet med denna studie är att kartlägga sambanden mellan utvalda textkvaliteter och betyg i argumenterande elevtexter från kursen Svenska nivå 1 samt att undersöka om dessa samband är likartade mellan olika skolo

A total of 24 UAV flights in the vicinity of integrated sensing and communications-enabled (ISAC) antenna systems, called base stations, were selected to investigate whether tracking can be improved using machine learning methods. This was done by inputting time series of range-Doppler (r-D) maps created from continuously calculating channel estimates of the bistatic environment around base statio

The formation of our Galaxy has long been a rewarding area of research within astronomy. A large part of analysis includes using kinematics to separate the different structures in the Milky Way and also to discover accreted stars. While it is highly useful to understand the motions of populations there are systematic errors that follow, due to the difficulties of getting high quality data for them

Introduction: Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a powerful analytical technique for the identification of chemical compounds at low concentrations. Background: The presence of organic compounds at low concentrations that have not been previously identified in a sample may represent a significant risk to human health and safety. However, reliable identification remains challenging due t

The purpose of this study was to investigate social workers and school personnel's experience of child participation in CIP meetings, with a particular focus on children with NDD. More specifically, the study aimed to explore how child participation was facilitated within these meetings. The study was based on qualitative semi-structured interviews with four social workers, one teacher, and tw

Resultatet visar att BIM har stor potential att förbättra bygglovsprocessen genom bättre informationshantering, tydligare visualisering och minskad risk för informationsförluster. Intervjuerna visar att BIM redan används inom projekteringen men kommunala verktyg är anpassade för PDF-filer och pappersbaserade handlingar. Studien visar även att öppna standarder och gemensamma riktlinjer är avgörande

Intimate partner violence narratives may be shaped not only by what happened, but also by who the experience is communicated to and what consequences are perceived to be at stake. This study examined whether contextual framing influences how individuals describe self-experienced psychological and physical intimate partner violence in informal, professional, and custody-related contexts. A sample o
