Publications related to Global North and Global South

Energy needs at the global level are gigantic and steadily increasing while the need to reduce carbon emissions is vital if catastrophic climate change is to be avoided. In the Global South, a large part of the population still lacks access to energy, whic ...

Real-Time Control of Microgrids with Explicit Power Setpoints: Unintentional Islanding

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Lorenzo Enrique Reyes Chamorro, Andrey Bernstein

We propose a method to perform a safe unintentional islanding maneuver of microgrids. The method is derived in the context of a framework for the real-time control of microgrids, called Commelec, recently proposed by the authors. The framework uses a hiera ...

Protecting Options in Global Markets: Evidence on the Use of Strategic Disclosure

Christopher Tucci, Jana Thiel, Tilo Peters

We examine the impact of globally diverse market operations on a firm’s choice to openly disclose some of its technology. We suggest that this strategic disclosure offers solutions to specific needs in the commercialization strategy of globally operating f ...

Second-order asymptotics for the Gaussian MAC with degraded message sets

Jonathan Mark Scarlett

This paper studies the second-order asymptotics of the Gaussian multiple-access channel with degraded message sets. For a fixed average error probability epsilon is an element of (0, 1) and an arbitrary point on the boundary of the capacity region, we char ...

SwissPalm: Protein Palmitoylation database

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Daniel Migliozzi, Florence Armand, Fabrice David, Jérôme Bürgi, Mathieu Blanc

Protein S-palmitoylation is a reversible post-translational modification that regulates many key biological processes, although the full extent and functions of protein S-palmitoylation remain largely unexplored. Recent developments of new chemical methods ...

Linear response to harmonic forcing of the non-parallel Batchelor vortex

François Gallaire, Francesco Viola, Cristobal Manuel Arratia Martinez

The Batchelor vortex1 is a slowly developing asymptotic solution of the flow of a trailing line vortex. This flow has been comprehensively studied in its parallel approximation. In particular, the convective/absolute nature of the instability has been inve ...

Dense Methods for Image Alignment with an Application to 3D Tracking

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Alberto Crivellaro

This survey focuses on a class of methods for image alignment based on a global, iterative optimization. We synthetically describe the existing methods (included the recent Efficient Second Order Method), compare their theoretical aspects, computational co ...
