(Háskólinn í Reykjavík, 2013-03-24)Structural Operational Semantics (SOS) is a well known standard for specifying language semantics in a natural, yet rigorous way. Once a formal way of checking for the equivalence of two programs written in such a language is provided, it is of great ...
-
(2023-04-17)In this dissertation, we calculate the electronic charge and heat transport generated by a temperature gradient and a chemical potential bias in tubular semiconductor nanowires, in the presence of a magnetic field. We use the Landauer-Büttiker approach ...
-
(2023-06-17)Due to changing global circumstances in recent years, Iceland has experienced a sharp increase in forced migrant children, youth, and families seeking refuge. The aim of this doctoral thesis was to examine the migration experience of children and youth ...

(Háskólinn í Reykjavík, 2014-02-11)Chitosan is a promising natural substances used in biomaterials research as it has several essential properties that can be applied in tissue engineering. This polymer can be easily combined with other biomaterials and it can be rapidly and economically ...
-
(Háskólinn í Reykjavík, 2014-04-10)One of the research areas of great importance in Computer Science is the study of the semantics of concurrent reactive systems. These are systems that compute by interacting with their environment, and typically consist of several parallel components, ...
-
(2020-06-20)Social responsibility has gained momentum as an important topic for academics, practitioners, and policymakers, spurred notably by a growing interest in defining and crossing boundaries between for-profit business activities and stakeholder interests. ...
-
(2022-12)Concussion symptoms are complex. They are non-specific to a concussion, and there is no gold standard for diagnosis and evaluation. For most, symptoms will resolve in days or weeks following a concussion. However, symptoms can become more serious, ...

Decision aids to assist Icelandic men with PSA testing and prostate cancer treatment decision-making (2023-09)Prostate cancer (PC) is the second most common cancer among men globally and the most common cancer among Icelandic men. Early detection of PC is possible with a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test. Before making a decision about PSA testing and before ...
-
(2023-01)The overall aim of this thesis is to investigate decision usefulness of financial accounting information and compliance with financial accounting standards. This thesis builds on three complementary studies, which explore the decision usefulness of ...
-
(2024-02)Contingent Convertible (CoCo) bonds represent a novel category of debt financial instruments, recently introduced into the financial landscape. Their primary role is to bolster financial stability by maintaining healthy capital levels for the issuing ...
-
(2021-01)The ubiquitous reliance on software systems is increasing the need for ensuring their correctness. Runtime enforcement is a monitoring technique that uses moni- tors that can transform the actions of a system under scrutiny in order to alter its runtime ...
-
(2018-05)In the last decades significant progress has been carried out leading to significant advances in the development of engineered tissues, thanks to taking into account three fundamental components: the cells to address tissue ...
-
(2023-01)Monitoring brain cortical activity is essential to decipher and understand neurophysiological behaviour. A wide amount of tools and experimental setups has been developed to stimulate, record and analyze brain activity. The identification of ...
-
(2022)The postural control system regulates the ability to maintain a stable upright stance and to react to changes in the external environment. Although once believed to be dominated by low-level reflexive mechanisms, mounting evidence has highlighted a ...
-
(2023-05-22)For machine translation (MT) systems to produce accurate and fluent translations, reliable parallel corpora are key. Errors, due to misalignments or inadequate filtering during compilation of a parallel corpus, can have detrimental effects on the ...
-
(2020-02-25)In this work, fundamental electronic and optical properties of semiconductor prismatic nanowires, which are a direct consequence of their geometry, are numerically studied. The quantum states of electrons confined in polygonal shells, which describe ...
