Quantifying the spillover of green products on consumer attitudes and umbrella brand sales
(2017-06)Despite growing consumer attention to the environment, it is still unclear how and how much companies benefit from their large investments in 'green' products. This paper quantifies the positive spillover of sustainable ... -
Radiative cooling by spectrally selective materials for building
(2018-01-03)Buildings utilize more than one-third of the total energy consumed in counties within the Mediterranean climate zones like in Turkey. Particularly during the summer months, the absorption of solar energy by the buildings ... -
Robust estimation of term structure and implied volatility in emerging markets
(2016-07)Despite powerful advances in interest rate curve modeling for data-rich countries in the last 30 years, comparatively little attention has been paid to the key practicalproblem of estimation of the term structure of interest ... -
Runtime specialization and autotuning of sparse matrix-vector multiplication
(2015-12)Runtime specialization is used for optimizing programs based on partial information available only at runtime. In this thesis, we present a purpose-built compiler to quickly specialize Sparse Matrix-Vector Multiplication ... -
