Modeling options for demand side participation of thermostatically controlled loads

Maryam Kamgarpour, John Lygeros

Residential thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) have potential for participation in electricity markets. This is because we can control a large group of these loads to achieve aggregate system behavior such as providing frequency reserves while ensuri ...

Spatiotemporal Brain Signatures of Risk and Reward

Anjali Devi Vanapilli Nursimulu

Rational economics and finance surmise that choices decree from a conscious arbitration between alternatives based on decision-theoretically computed values. Implicit in the computation of these option values are the perception and integration of different ...

Final-Focus Optics for the LHeC Electron Beam Line

José Luis Abelleira Fernández, Hector Garcia, Frank Zimmermann

One of the options considered for the ECFA-CERNNuPECC design study for a Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC) based on the LHC is adding a recirculating energy-recovery linac tangential to the LHC. First designs of the electron Final Focus System have sho ...

MAOA-L carriers are better at making optimal financial decisions under risk

Genes can affect behaviour towards risks through at least two distinct neurocomputational mechanisms: they may affect the value assigned to different risky options, or they may affect the way in which the brain adjudicates between options based on their va ...

Real options valuation of fusion energy R&D programme

Edgard Gnansounou, Denis Bednyagin

This paper aims to perform a real options valuation of fusion energy R&D programme. Strategic value of thermonuclear fusion technology is estimated here based on the expected cash flows from construction and operation of fusion power plants and the real op ...

Variance Risk Premia in Energy Commodities

Anders Trolle

This paper investigates variance risk premia in energy commodities, particularly crude oil and natural gas, using a robust model-independent approach. Over a period of 11 years, we find that the average variance risk premia are significantly negative for b ...

XuvTools: free, fast and reliable stitching of large 3D datasets

Alessandra Griffa

Current biomedical research increasingly requires imaging large and thick 3D structures at high resolution. Prominent examples are the tracking of fine filaments over long distances in brain slices, or the localization of gene expression or cell migration ...

Long Run Forward Rates and Long Yields of Bonds and Options in Heterogeneous Equilibria

Semyon Malamud

We prove that, in a heterogeneous economy with scale-invariant utilities, the yield of a long term bond is determined by the agent with maximal expected marginal utility. We also prove that the same result holds for the long term forward rates. Furthermore ...

Increasing user decision accuracy using suggestions

Boi Faltings, Pearl Pu Faltings, Paolo Viappiani

The internet presents people with an increasingly bewildering variety of choices. Online consumers have to rely on computerized search tools to find the most preferred option in a reasonable amount of time. Recommender systems address this problem by searc ...

From e-government to e-governance: implications for technology management

Matthias Finger, Pierre Rossel

Our paper draws upon concrete research cases to show: firstly, how the approach, the perspective and the representational framework of eGovernment initiatives influence the nature of the changes taking place and, as too many problems remain unaddressed, wh ...
