The placement of replicas across storage nodes in a replication-based storage system is known to affect rebuild times and therefore system reliability. Earlier work has shown that, for a replication factor of two, the reliability is essentially unaffected ...

Thermally activated shape memory polymers (SMPs) recover from a secondary shape induced by mechanical deformation to a primary equilibrium shape when they are heated to their actuation temperature. In certain applications, for example in the biomedical fie ...
Hydropeaking is a major issue for storage hydropower plants. Hydropeaking can affect negatively the aquatic environment along river streams. For several hydropower plants studies which analyse measures to reduce the surge effect are currently under prepara ...
A new method for measuring shape rectangularity is introduced. The new shape measure is invariant with respect to similarity transformations, ranges over the interval (0,1] and picks the value 1 if and only if the measured shape is a rectangle. The measure ...
Educational disadvantage is an essentially contested, political concept. At the same time there is a ‘phoney consensus’ surrounding the issue, i.e., policy debates on the topic often fail to reflect this contestation. This lack of awareness of the politica ...
In this paper we consider the coupling between two diffusion-reaction problems, one taking place in a three-dimensional domain Ω, the other in a one-dimensional subdomain Λ. This coupled problem is the simplest model of fluid flow in a three-dimensional po ...

This chapter introduces a discriminative method for detecting and spotting keywords in spoken utterances. Given a word represented as a sequence of phonemes and a spoken utterance, the keyword spotter predicts the best time span of the phoneme sequence in ...
A method that exploits an information theoretic framework to extract optimized audio features using video information is presented. A simple measure of mutual information (MI) between the resulting audio and video features allows the detection of the activ ...
Purpose Liver cancer is the 5 most common cancer and shows poor prognosis. Surgical removal of liver tumours, the only existing curative treatment, can merely be used in 10-20% of the case. Increasing surgical precision is a key-challenge to give more pati ...
Let 1 < p < infinity, let G and H be locally compact groups and let c) be a continuous homomorphism of G into H. We prove, if G is amenable, the existence of a linear contraction of the Banach algebra CVp (G) of the p-convolution operators on G into CVp (H ...
