  3. 2. The impact of innovative ICT technologies on the power consumption and CO2 emission of HTTP servers

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Författare :Sebastian Soler Domínguez; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Cache technology; data transfer; server’s performance; Network energy intensity; PUE; CO2 emissions.;

    Sammanfattning : The ICT technologies and their adoption from the population are growing fast, and the energy that this industry requires has followed the same trend, even considering all the improvements in efficiency during the last decades. This is because the increment in data centers and information outpaces all the efficiencies that have been adopted over the years. LÄS MER

  4. 3. On Conducting a Life Cycle Assessment of Network Traffic : A Qualitative Analysis of Current Challenges and Possible Solutions

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Tova Billstein; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Life Cycle Assessment; LCA; network traffic; data traffic; data transmission; network; data center; sustainability assessment; environmental impact; carbon emissions; ICT; information and communications technology; technology; electricity intensity; industrial ecology; climate change; Livscykelanalys; LCA; datatraffik; nätverk; datorhall; miljöanalys; miljöpåverkan; ICT; informationsteknik; teknologi; industriell ekologi; klimatförändring;

    Sammanfattning : There is a growing demand for climate reporting of digital solutions and Internet services. However, the impacts of data transmission have historically been the least studied part of the ICT sector and in the few studies that exist, the magnitude of Internet energy intensity varies by a scale as large as 20,000.

  5. 4. Labour Markets and Global Value Chain Integration: Moderating the labour market implications of trade integration in Sub-Saharan Africa

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Författare :Bente Jessen-Thiesen; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Global Value Chain Integration; Sub-Saharan Africa; Labour Markets; Business and Economics;

    Sammanfattning : With the rise of international fractionalization of production, global value chain (GVC) integration has become an important pillar of economic growth strategies, especially in low- and middle-income countries during the past decades. Differentiating between backward and forward GVC integration, economic growth and upgrading potentials are well-defined, but to be sustainable growth through GVC integration needs to incorporate decent job creation.

  7. 5. Baumol’s Cost Disease in the Second Machine Age

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Författare :Erik Nelsson; [2019]
    Nyckelord :unbalanced growth computerization digitization employment; Business and Economics;

    Sammanfattning : Baumol argued that technologically stagnant sectors with relatively low productivity growth over time will experience relatively higher prices and increased shares of total labor, and thereby slow aggregate growth. This theory, known as ‘the cost disease’, also claims that services, predominantly found in the public sector, generally are stagnant due to their perceived dependence on human labor as an input.
