Governing the dynamics of the network industries

Matthias Finger, Marc Laperrouza, Nicolas Crettenand

This paper wants to further develop the theory of co-evolution between technology and institutions in the network industries by addressing one of the critiques that is generally raised, namely the lack of taking into account its dynamics. The paper outline ...

The evolution of communication in robot societies

Sara Mitri

Communication is fundamental to life on earth. All social organisms, from bacteria to humans, use communicative signals to coordinate their behaviors with members of their own and other species. Despite its key role in social organization, many questions r ...

Time evolution of correlations in strongly interacting fermions after a quantum quench

Salvatore Manmana

Using the adaptive time-dependent density-matrix renormalization group, we study the time evolution of density correlations of interacting spinless fermions on a one-dimensional lattice after a sudden change in the interaction strength. Over a broad range ...

Parasites lead to evolution of robustness against gene loss in host signaling networks

Marcel Salathé

Many biological networks can maintain their function against single gene loss. However, the evolutionary mechanisms responsible for such robustness remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that antagonistic host-parasite interactions can act as a selective pre ...

Direct Observation of Microscopic Solvation at the Surface of Clusters by Ultrafast Photoelectron Imaging

Majed Chergui, Alejandro Gonzalez Gonzalez

We report on microscopic observation of solvation by argon atoms of excited states of an ethylenic-like mol., TDMAE (tetrakis dimethylaminoethylene). Two exptl. methods were used: gas phase dynamics for the observation of the evolution through excited stat ...

Market Sharing Dynamics Between Two Service Providers

Max-Olivier Hongler, Olivier Gallay

We study the market partition between two distinct firms that deliver services to waiting-time sensitive customers. In our model, the incoming customers select a firm on the basis of its posted price, the expected waiting time and its brand. More specifica ...

A Document Reuse Tool for Communities of Practice

Stéphane Sire, Micaël Paquier, Christine Vanoirbeek, Aïda Boukottaya, Loïc Merz

Virtual communities of practice are gaining importance as mean of sharing and exchanging knowledge. In such environments, information reuse is of major concern. In this paper, we outline the importance of structuring documents in order to facilitate the re ...

Evolution of cooperation in artificial ants

Markus Waibel

The evolution of cooperation is a fundamental and enduring puzzle in biology and the social sciences. Hundreds of theoretical models have been proposed, but empirical research has been hindered by the generation time of social organisms and by the difficul ...

A rule-based DSS for the qualitative prediction of the evolution of e-sales

Rémy Glardon, Naoufel Cheikhrouhou, Luca Canetta

Many parameters have a significant influence on c-commerce evolution. This complicates the assessment of the requirements for and the consequences of e-sales adoption. In order to support the decisions of companies thinking about a possible e-sales channel ...

Hardware/Software Coevolution of Genome Programs and Cellular Processors

Guillaume Zufferey, Pierre-André Mudry

The application of evolutionary techniques to the design of custom processing elements bears a strong relation to the natural process that led to the co-evolution of cells and genomes in biological organisms. As such, it is an interesting avenue for an eff ...
