Why it's good that Soulstealer Vayne is so hard to get - a statistical Analysis
I analyzed the Hextech-Crafting in a Stochastic Simulation with 10 Million Players and found that you're going to make more Riot Points than you spend (in value) and thats without counting Champs. I've made some assumptions, which can be found down in the paper itself for those interested. For everyone else: If you're trying to maximize your RP-Net-Worth stack up on Hextech Chests.

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.

Operative Systems Midterm Project
In this paper, we measure the memory performance throughout the Phoronix test "RAMspeed SMP". We decide to test this specific benchmark because we know how important is the memory for the system performance. This document shows how much the memory performance could change if we modify some variables in the linux kernel.
