scriptie NFC en RFID.
1 Voorwoord
Tegenwoordig ontwikkelt de technische wereld zich aardig snel. Als jij deze ontwikkelingen regelmatig volgt, dan komen de volgende termen Near Field Communication (NFC) en
radiofrequentie-indentificatie (RFID) je zeker bekend voor. Dit is een technologie die op afstand informatie kan opslaan en lezen. Deze ontwikkeling in de technische wereld zoals NFC
en RFID worden grootschalig uitgeprobeerd. NFC en RFID technologie maken handelingen
zoals betalen makkelijker en sneller, daardoor ziet men er veel potentie in. Doormiddel van
deze scriptie zal je kennis over dit onderwerp groter zijn.

Effects of Climate Change on Canadian Forest Fires
This study aimed to determine the effects of climate change on forest fire trends in Canada by measuring correlations between weather conditions and the frequency and size of forest fires. Upon identifying the correlations, a model was created to understand future forest fire trends. The purpose of this study was to prevent the increasing trend of forest fires and devise solutions to reduce their damages. The data obtained from the Canadian National Fire Database underwent a linear regression and a machine learning algorithm to respectively predict and correlate weather conditions with future forest fire trends. It was concluded that temperature and wind speed experienced a positive correlation with forest fire frequency and size and precipitation experienced a negative correlation. To reduce the harmful effects of forest fires, cloud seeding can be used to create more precipitation and wind farms can be built to lower wind speed and attract lightning. However, more research and stricter policies directly targeting climate change are necessary for long term stability or decrease in forest fire trends.

The effects of disruptive communication on user engagement in the collaborative consumption model
Software is designed to simplify the lives of its users. The rapid growth of social media and the technology industry has foreseen a plethora of different types of software used as a service, with the aim of engaging its users and creating a form of revenue. With an abundance of software applications from which to choose from, this paper looks into the types of communication between the user and the application itself, and how automation and disruptive notification are intertwined to form a successful application.
