In this paper, we address the resource allocation problem of device-to-device (D2D) communications underlaying orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) based cellular systems by exploiting the efficiency that comes from an ensemble of graph th ...
Based on an on-going research project called “Policy options for a resource efficient Europe” (POLFREE), this paper analyses potential policy instruments and their interdependencies in a policy mix for resource efficiency. It focuses on fundamental trade-o ...
The task of the master project is to analyse a data set with information of several hundred companies from Switzerland. The goal is to find in the Swiss industry sector a classification/typology for the nature of resource efficiency of innovating companies ...
5G cellular networks will enable new differentiated services and applications to support industry like healthcare, energy, automobile and security. These services will massively increase the number of attached devices like mobiles, sensors, and actuators, ...
Mounting theoretical evidence suggests that demographic stochasticity, environmental heterogeneity and biased movement of organisms individually affect the dynamics of biological invasions and range expansions. Studies of species spread in heterogeneous la ...
In 2011, the Association of German Engineers (VDI) started working on a set of guidelines towards increased resource efficiency. These guidelines represent a framework that defines resource efficiency and outlines considerations for the producing industry. ...
Policy makers set out a range of initiatives with the buzzwords ‘natural resources’, ‘raw materials’, ‘resource efficiency’, and ‘sustainable management’ of natural resources and raw materials. An analysis of the practice highlights that there are quite di ...
The concept of the circular economy has attracted the attention of policy makers and businesses in recent years. However, changing current patterns of resource use is a complex task. This paper aims to shed some light on the understanding of why resources ...
The transport sector is the second largest emitter of GHG emissions in the EU and about two thirds of the emissions are generated from road transport. More importantly, while emissions from other sectors have shown a consistent decreasing trend, GHG emissi ...
Solitons are waveforms that preserve their shape while propagating, as a result of a balance of dispersion and nonlinearity(1,2). Soliton-based data transmission schemes were investigated in the 1980s and showed promise as a way of overcoming the limitatio ...
