MLBench is a framework for benchmarking distributed machine learning algorithms. The main goals of MLBench are to provide a fair benchmarking suite for software and hardware systems and to provide reference implementations for the most common distributed m ...
This paper presents an analysis of the role of social media, specifically Twitter, in the context of non-fungible tokens, better known as NFTs. Such emerging technology framing the creation and exchange of digital object, started years ago with early proje ...
Electricity markets are currently experiencing a period of rapid change. The intermittent nature of renewable energy is disrupting the conventional methods used in operational planning of the electrical grid, causing a shift from a day-ahead forecast polic ...
Certain natural materials such as bones not only show high stiffness and high damping performance but also exhibit other superior properties as the result of complex hierarchical structure formation. Synthetic polymer materials have demonstrated a great ve ...
Working in groups and managing projects are important professional skills for engineers, and there is a growing demand to teach and assess such skills. But what should be taught and when? Tuckman’s famous “stages of development of performing groups” provid ...
As revitalization and protection against floods are essential in our time, the town of Delémont in Switzerland has set up a major project named “Delémont Marée Basse”. Part of the project, the residual risk plans to be managed by a lateral overflow bypassi ...
For the successful application of aerobic granules in wastewater treatment, granules containing an appropriate microbial assembly able to remove contaminants should be retained and propagated within the reactor. To manipulate and/or optimize this process, ...
[Context] As opposed to the traditional approach to problem solving, which limits the scope of the solution to the stated problem, the mandate for services is to go deeper and focus on the value that the proposed solution creates for the entities affected ...
