Jongsma, Jelt (author)The first step of many cyber attacks is the reconnaissance phase. One of many reconnaissance methods employed by adversaries is internet-wide scanning, which<br/>probes the entire internet to find which hosts have open ports. These scans are practically<br/>impossible to detect by a firewall or Intrusion Detection System if an attacker chooses...bachelor thesis 2024

Barba Roque, Enrique (author)Containerization with Docker has become the standard for the deployment of software in recent years since it is a lightweight method to isolate applications. However, the selection of a Docker image brings different dependencies, which can introduce energy inefficiencies that are often not documented. Recent work performs a comparative study...master thesis 2024

Vianen, Jop (author)While CO<sub>2</sub> is one of the factors increasing the global temperature, it is also utilized in the agriculture to enhance crop yield. In the agriculture, a sustainable solution to CO<sub>2</sub> mitigation would potentially lie in the greenhouses. A moisture swing direct air capture system can adsorb CO<sub>2</sub> from the air through...master thesis 2024

Baars, Kim (author)Empirical studies indicate an increasing inclination towards the adoption of integrated software systems that contribute to project management. To this moment, studies on the implementation of these integrated software systems tended to emphasise the benefit of such software. However, the analytical evidence to support such assumptions is...master thesis 2024

Koudstaal, Loulou (author)In a biomechanical engineering study, a pressure-activated, colour-changing, and flexible material has been developed, stemming from an initial problem application. However, a technical innovation can transcend its original intent, thereby gaining value for engineers or technical managers. The problem is that there is a lack of guidance in...master thesis 2024

Russchen, Marieke (author), Waalders, Luc (author), de Quant, E.C.J. (author), Sutherland, M. (author), Zhou, Z. (author)The Nitrogen Crisis has become a focal point for the global community, with the related European policy stirring uncertainty in the agricultural sector. This political unrest has been clearly manifested in the Netherlands, while natural areas remain exposed to high emission levels. Society calls for systematic solutions to the nitrogen issue...student report 2024

Goudswaard, Reef (author)This bachelor's thesis explores the realm of map projections, aiming to establish a systematic approach for evaluating and ranking them based on angular and area distortions. Beginning with a definition of map projections, the study progresses to quantify the distortions that occur when projecting a spherical surface onto a flat one. Using these...bachelor thesis 2024

Berjaoui Tahmaz, Amin (author)This paper presents a hierarchical reinforcement learning framework for efficient robotic manipulation in sequential contact tasks. We leverage this hierarchical structure to sequentially execute behavior primitives with variable stiffness control capabilities for contact tasks. Our proposed approach relies on three key components: an action...master thesis 2024

Talsma, Marit (author)The quantum internet improves upon the classical internet with several new possibilities. However, to create such a quantum internet, metropolitan hubs (for this research we will use an Entanglement Generation Switch - EGS - as hub) are needed to avoid a scaling problem when connecting all end nodes individually with one another. These EGSs...master thesis 2024
