BACKGROUND. Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS) are point-of-care questionnaires that guide consultations to evidence-based predictions with the aim of standardizing care and optimizing resource allocation. The data collected in these tools contain po ...
In Switzerland, Germany and Austria, as in many European countries, the transition of the energy sector towards more sustainability is a long-term transition process, unfolding since decades. It however only reached the regime level in recent years and the ...
While software applications, programming languages, and hardware have changed, operating systems have not. Widely-used commodity operating systems are still modeled after the ones designed in the seventies. The accumulated burden of backward compatibility ...
Policymaking is a complex process that has been studied using policy process theories almost exclusively. These theories have been built using a large number of qualitative cases. Such methods are useful for theory building but remain limited for theory ex ...
The article links two seemingly different fundamental theoretical concepts of autopoiesis and homeostasis and tries to apply them to the realm of socio-technical systems with the use of the Fractal Enterprise Model (FEM). Autopoiesis is the property of a s ...
Within the sustainability discourse, resilience has been taken up more and more as a central boundary object. Resilience in principle has both static and dynamic elements to it, allowing a system to stay in an equilibrium without endangering its long-term ...
We develop a model that successfully learns social and organizational human network structure using ambient sensing data from distributed plug load energy sensors in commercial buildings. A key goal for the design and operation of commercial buildings is t ...
Within the sustainability discourse, resilience has been taken up more and more as a central boundary object. Resilience in principle has both static and dynamic elements to it, allowing a system to stay in an equilibrium without endangering its long-term ...
Adapting to uncertain environments is a key obstacle in the development of robust robotic object manipulation systems, as there is a trade-off between the computationally expensive methods of handling the surrounding complexity, and the real-time requireme ...
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) offer new opportunities for wildlife monitoring, with several advantages over traditional field-based methods. They have readily been used to count birds, marine mammals and large herbivores in different environments, tasks ...
