| Problem description: | The thesis will elaborate on decentralised energy system in an African context. Out of the various challenges, these ones will be addressed:
The baseline of the thesis is formed through an in-depth literature review, as well as interviews with experts in Africa. We envisage practical measurements, e.g. the degradation of performance on both solar cells and (NaIon) batteries |
| Methods and Tools: | The tools and methods in this thesis are based on
|
| Time schedule | The envisaged time schedule (for a long thesis/60 ECTS) is:
|
| Pre-Knowledge | This thesis includes a reasonable amount of programming. The envisaged thesis is based on radio communications, thus expects the user to have followed at least two radio-related courses |
| Approved | Pending by |
| Keywords | Energy systems, Africa |

Comments
Red line
Your thesis should have a "red line", which is visible throughout the whole thesis. This means you should mention in the beginning of each chapter how the chapter contributes to the "goals of the thesis".
Use of scientific methods
A thesis follows a standard method:
- describe the problem (problemstilling)
- extract the challenges. These challenges should be measurable, e.g. method is too slow to be useful to voice handover.
- Analyse technology with respect to challenges. Don't write & repeat "everything" from a certain technology, concentrate on those parts (e.g. protocols) which are of importance for your problem
References
- Wikipedia is good to use to get an overview on what is happening. But there is not scientific verification of Wikipedia, thus you should use wikipedia only in the introduction of a chapter (if you use text from wikipedia). Use scientific literature for your thesis.
- Scientific library is "at your hand", you can get there directly from UiO: [[How to get access to IEEE, Springer and other scientific literature -> Unik/UiOLibrary]]
- I suggest that references to web pages, e.g. OASIS, W3C standards, are given in a footnote. Only if you find white papers or other .pdf documents on a web page then you refer to them in the reference section.
Evaluation of own work
Perform an evaluation of your own work. Revisit the challenges and discuss in how you fulfilled them. Provide alternative solution and discuss what should be done (or what could have been done).
