Certification in quantum information theory: key distribution, self-testing and entanglement
(English) In the beginning of the last century, we witnessed a change of paradigm in how physics described the world with the formulation of quantum mechanics. This new theory shook the pillars of science by setting ...
Theory, algorithms and applications of linear arrangements of trees: generation, expectation and optimization
(English) A successful approach to represent the syntactic structure of sentences in Computational Linguistics, founded in the theory developed by Tesnière, is that of syntactic dependency tree. Pairs of vertices of ...
Espai núvol: una anàlisi de l’arquitectura de RCR Arquitectes a través de les seves atmosferes
(English) The work of RCR arquitectes is recognizable and recognized, based on intense interventions almost always represented from the inside out, deep, somber, which often incorporate this outside, this environment, in ...
Paràmetres definitoris de la façana ventilada i la seva influència sobre el funcionament energètic del sistema
(English) The negative repercussions of climate change and global warming are becoming more and more evident. We need to find strategies to reduce our environmental impact and at the same time adapt to these new conditions. ...
Interacciones líquidas : dibujar con el agua la ciudad de Bogotá
(English) Bogotá, located in a lacustrine savanna surrounded by páramos and wetlands, has been shaped throughout its history by its relationship with water. From the muisca camellones to modern urbanization processes, the ...
Estrategias de control de potencia en inversores de generación distribuida ante un fallo desbalanceado de la red eléctrica
(English) This PhD thesis examines various reactive current injection techniques and strategies to address the challenges associated with power grid management during abnormal conditions. The aim is to offer new perspectives ...
Navigating the landscape of HR analytics: a multi-perspective analysis and research roadmap
(English) Context: Against the backdrop of big data and digitalization, HR Analytics (HRA) has garnered substantial attention in both research and practice. HRA has been considered transformative for HR functions and ...
Research on signal and image denoising techniques
(English) This dissertation aims to investigate two crucial tasks in the field of signal and image processing: signal denoising and image enhancement. Firstly, for signal processing, we propose three innovative denoising ...
Soft computing strategies for resolving key data challenges in organ transplantation
(English) In the field of organ transplantation, a critical gap exists: the availability of organs falls far short of the demand, resulting in numerous recipients dying before they can receive a transplant. The complexity ...
Graphene based photodetectors for on-chip and free-space data communication applications
(English) Moore's law, a longstanding guide for the semiconductor industry, successfully predicted the exponential growth in computing power by doubling transistor counts every two years. However, recent challenges in ...
Recovery of critical raw materials from saltworks by integration of sorption processes
(English) Nowadays, the increasing demand for raw materials caused by population growth and industrialisation moved the European Union (EU) to improve resource efficiency and as result the Critical Raw Materials/Strategic ...
La repetición en un modelo habitacional urbano: de las terraced houses londinenses tardogeorgianas a los apartment houses neoyorquinos de la Era Metropolitana
(English) Domestic architecture is the backbone of the historic city due to its ambivalent capacity, expressed in urban housing models, of providing the citizens habitat at the same time of contributing to plot the texture, ...
Mathematical modeling of advanced oxidation processes for the efficient wastewater treatment: integrated management of advanced oxidation processes and conventional bio-processes for the removal of recalcitrant components
(English) The objective of this thesis is to contribute to the development of mathematical modeling of Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) aimed at the competent treatment of recalcitrant organic compounds in wastewater. ...
Diachronic terrains: three landscape narrations on the west Attic coast
(English) The thesis researched for a hybrid interdisciplinary system of tools that could help decode coastal landscapes. The west Attic shoreline, a space of contrasts and surprises, stands as a forgotten landscape ...
Predictive simulation, active diagnosis and dynamic monitoring for tritium processing systems
(English) Nuclear fusion has been under development for years, showing consistent advancements toward becoming a clean and efficient energy source. However, significant challenges persist in this field, with tritium handling ...
Enhanced dynamic bandwidth algorithms for passive optical networks
