To promote sustainable buying decisions there is the need to better inform consumers about the environmental burden of products. Today, environmental product assessment is mostly conducted by the producer itself or external consultants using life-cycle inv ...

The increasing adoption of Software Defined Networking, and OpenFlow in particular, brings great hope for increasing extensibility and lowering costs of deploying new network functionality. A key component in these networks is the OpenFlow agent, a piece o ...
Many analytics applications generate mixed workloads, i.e., workloads comprised of analytical tasks with different processing characteristics including data pre-processing, SQL, and iterative machine learning algorithms. Examples of such mixed workloads ca ...
This paper makes the case for TaaS - automated software testing as a cloud-based service. We present three kinds of TaaS: (1) a public certification service, akin to Underwriters Labs, that independently assesses the reliability, safety, and security of so ...
Based on 6 years of continuous measurements, we have analysed in detail the occupancy, thermal and visual parameters influencing actions on shading devices in order to derive an accurate model for the prediction of their usage in office buildings. This art ...
In this paper, a theoretical and experimental investigation of the effect of temperature on water retention phenomena in deformable soils is presented. A general law expressing the change in suction with water content, temperature and void ratio is propose ...
Prof Bierlaire will present the powerful methods of Discrete Choice Analysis that are used in forecasting human behaviour to predict, among others, the demand for a new product under alternative pricing strategies. From individual behaviors, such technique ...
We apply a model construction methodology to TinyOS-based networks, using the Behavior-Interaction-Priority (BIP) component framework. The methodology consists in building the model of a node as the composition of a model extracted from a nesC program desc ...
Distributed systems are difficult to design and develop. The difficulties arise both in basic safety correctness properties, and in achieving high performance. As a result of this complexity, the implementation of a distributed system often contains the ba ...
BA/MMA (90:10 wt.-%) were copolymerized in the presence of two different organomodified clays (C30B and CMA16) and 1.6-2.6wbm.-% surfactants. The effect of the compatibility of the organoclay in the monomer mixture on the morphology of hybrid polymer/clay ...
