When it comes to designing software, the classic procedure consists of writing code that complies with the projects requirements first, and then to extensively test for bugs and defects. Although this approach is valid and can produce correct results, it i ...
An integrated approach is presented in this study to design electrical hubs combining optimization, multi-criterion assessment and decision making. Levelized Energy Cost (LEC), Initial Capital Cost (ICC), Grid Integration Level (GI), Levelized CO2 emission ...
This master project's objectives are: - Understanding of the main approaches commonly used for discharge forecasting. - Understanding of key concepts of machine learning and evolutionary optimization. - Learning how to interpret discharge forecasts, both d ...
In this paper, we describe our use of ethnographic techniques for identifying requirements for a web-based system for automatic updates and data exchange in a financial investment company. During a six-month long internship, we observed stakeholders in the ...
This thesis has been put in place during the development of an innovative medical device which consists in an intelligent footwear for foot plantar pressure redistribution in diabetic patients. In fact, despite the several sophisticated techniques develope ...
Functional requirements may constrain phenotypic diversification or foster it. For insect mouthparts, the quantification of the relationship between shape and function in an evolutionary framework remained largely unexplored. Here, the question of a functi ...
In a context where the territorial development stakeholders seek to limit urban sprawl, urban brownfields represent an important potential: their regeneration allows an increased density within the existing built fabric and a revitalization at the neighbor ...
The paper reports results of a structured democratic dialogue Co-Laboratory that aimed to explore actions that could alleviate obstacles preventing the development of practical broadband applications for elderly people and people with disabilities. Thirty- ...
Thin foldable origami mechanisms allow reconfiguration of complex structures with large volumetric change, versatility, and at low cost; however, there is rarely a systematic way to make them autonomously actuated due to the lack of low profile actuators. ...
