Conceptual frameworks in indicator‐based assessments of urban sustainability—An analysis based on 67 initiatives

Albert Merino, Pekka Jaakko Halla

Urban sustainability is today commonly considered to be a crucial determinant of global sustainable development, and indicator-based assessments represent a popular means of operationalizing this complex concept. An important aspect of these assessments co ...

An agent-based model framework for understanding the decisions of households and exploring bottom-up effects on housing sustainability

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Anna Pagani

Housing plays a crucial role in the transition towards sustainability. Zero-energy or low-carbon housing solutions are key, but their success depends on their acceptance by the users. We propose a conceptual and an operational framework for understanding h ...

Economic complexity unfolded: Interpretable model for the productive structure of economies

Fernando Perez Cruz

Economic complexity reflects the amount of knowledge that is embedded in the productive structure of an economy. It resides on the premise of hidden capabilities-fundamental endowments underlying the productive structure. In general, measuring the capabili ...

Einsatz von Nichtmarktstrategien durch oeffentliche Unternehmen gegenueber dem Staat : Untersuchung am Beispiel der Schweizerischen Post AG

Carole Juliane Isabelle Rentsch

Public enterprises operate in the area between the opposing poles of state and market. On the one hand they must meet a wide range of political expectations, and on the other they must fulfil commercial efficiency criteria. This dissertation addresses how ...

A Semantic Framework for Architecture Modelling

Eduard Baranov

Architectures are common means for organising coordination between components in order to build complex systems and to make them manageable. They allow thinking on a higher plane and avoiding low-level mistakes. Architectures provide means for ensuring cor ...

Diving into the dynamics of product evolution : analyzing technological discontinuities during the era of incremental change and cognitive convergence on a dominant design

Olivier Waeber

Three distinct stages describe the technological evolution of a product over time: ferment, convergence on a dominant design and an era of incremental change. Until recently, the era of incremental change has been characterized as stable and one that invol ...

Locomotion Dynamics for Bio-inspired Robots with Soft Appendages: Application to Flapping Flight and Passive Swimming

Yannick Morel

In animal locomotion, either in fish or flying insects, the use of flexible terminal organs or appendages greatly improves the performance of locomotion (thrust and lift). In this article, we propose a general unified framework for modeling and simulating ...

Modelling Architecture Styles

Anastasia Mavridou

Software systems tend to increase over time in size and complexity. Their development usually spans a long period of time and often results in systems that are hard to understand, debug and maintain. Architectures are common means for organising coordinati ...

A General Framework for Architecture Composability

Simon Bliudze, Joseph Sifakis, Eduard Baranov

Architectures depict design principles: paradigms that can be understood by all, allow thinking on a higher plane and avoiding low-level mistakes. They provide means for ensuring correctness by construction by enforcing global properties characterizing the ...

Improving simulation predictions of wind around buildings using measurements

Didier Vernay

Wind behavior in urban areas is receiving an increasing amount of interest from city planners and architects. In the context of Singapore, knowledge of wind behavior helps to improve building ventilation and, on a larger scale, urban ventilation. Computati ...

Rigorous implementation of real-time systems – from theory to application

Joseph Sifakis

The correct and efficient implementation of general real-time applications remains very much an open problem. A key issue is meeting timing constraints whose satisfaction depends on features of the execution platform, in particular its speed. Existing rigo ...

Bayesian demand calibration for dynamic traffic simulations

Michel Bierlaire, Gunnar Flötteröd

We present an operational framework for the calibration of demand models for dynamic traffic simulations, where calibration refers to the estimation of a structurally predefined model's parameters from real data. Our focus is on disaggregate simulators tha ...

Protein extraction from biomass in a bioethanol refinery - Possible dietary applications: use as animal feed and potential extension to human consumption

Edgard Gnansounou, Simone Chiesa

The economy of the production of lignocellulosic ethanol could be supported by the simultaneous use of different components of the biomass other than sugars. Among these, protein is present at high concentration in leaves and is a candidate for different p ...

Analyzing Semantic Interoperability in Bioinformatic Database Networks

Karl Aberer, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux, Adriana Budura

We consider the problem of analytically evaluating semantic interoperability in large-scale networks of schemas interconnected through pairwise schema mappings. Our heuristics are based on a graph-theoretic framework capturing important statistical propert ...
