Utility-Based Mechanism for Structural Self-Organization in Service-Oriented MAS

Structural relations established among agents influence the performance of decentralized service discovery process in multiagent systems. Moreover, distributed systems should be able to adapt their structural relations to changes in environmental condition ...

First day of an oil spill on the open sea: Early mass transfers of hydrocarbons to air and water

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros, Deedar Nabi

During the first hours after release of petroleum at sea, crude oil hydrocarbons partition rapidly into air and water. However limited information is available about very early evaporation and dissolution processes. We report on the composition of the oil ...

Modelling bacterial selection during the plug-flow feeding phase of aerobic granular sludge biofilm reactors

Christof Holliger, David Gregory Weissbrodt

A mathematical model was developed to investigate hydraulic transport and bacterial selection during slow up-flow anaerobic feeding (0.9 m h-1) of wastewater across the settled bed of granular sludge biofilms used in column-type sequencing-batch reactors t ...

Biomineralization in Newly Settled Recruits of the Scleractinian Coral Pocillopora damicornis

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Isabelle Domart-Coulon, Melany Melissa Gilis

Calcium carbonate biomineralization of scleractinian coral recruits is fundamental to the construction of reefs and their survival under stress from global and local environmental change. Establishing a baseline for how normal, healthy coral recruits initi ...

Complex Interaction of Dendritic Connectivity and Hierarchical Patch Size on Biodiversity in River-Like Landscapes

Andrea Rinaldo, Andrea Giometto, Francesco Carrara, Florian Altermatt

Habitat fragmentation and land use changes are causing major biodiversity losses. Connectivity of the landscape or environmental conditions alone can shape biodiversity patterns. In nature, however, local habitat characteristics are often intrinsically lin ...

The mitochondrial unfolded protein response, a conserved stress response pathway with implications in health and disease

Johan Auwerx, Laurent Mouchiroud, Virginija Jovaisaite

The ability to respond to various intracellular and/or extracellular stresses allows the organism to adapt to changing environmental conditions and drives evolution. It is now well accepted that a progressive decline of the efficiency of stress response pa ...

Architecture. A main factor of development and protection of the mountain environment

Estelle Lépine

The objective of this contribution is to show architecture as a major factor of development of the mountain environment against both environmental and human risks caused by the severe overcrowding of the routes leading to the main Alpine summits. The choic ...

How do Transport Infrastructure and Policies Affect House Prices and Rents? Evidence from Athens, Greece

Dimitrios Efthymiou

The interaction between land use and transportation infrastructure is a topic that has been extensively researched and continues to be of interest as new underlying economic, infrastructure and environmental conditions emerge. In this research, the direct ...
