The New Charter of Athens: Democracy and Climate Change

Matthew Skjonsberg

The focus of this workshop is to discuss a philosophical problem with practical implications: the complicated relationship between democratic practices and designs meant to deal with climate change in cities. We are exploring whether and how democratic pra ...

Optimisation en Temps Réel: Optimiser les Performances des Procédés Chimiques malgré l’Incertitude et les Erreurs de Modélisation

Grégory François

This document summarizes the author’s research activities since 1999. They mainly focus on the modelling, the control and the optimization of processes and contributed to the development of real-time optimization methods (RTO), that is, process optimizatio ...

A Modeling Framework for Analyzing the Viability of Service Systems

Gil Regev, Alain Wegmann, Arash Golnam

Recent research has explored the principles of service system viability based on systems inquiry invoking perspectives from Systems Theory and Cybernetics in particular Stafford Beer’s viable systems model (VSM). However based on Banathy & Jenlink (2004), ...

Differences in experiences in rockfall hazard mapping in Switzerland and Principality of Andorra

Vincent Labiouse, Jacopo Maria Abbruzzese

The need to cope with rockfall hazard and risk led many countries to adopt proper strategies for hazard mapping and risk management, based on their own social and political constraints. The experience of every single country in facing this challenge provid ...

Feedback topology and XOR-dynamics in Boolean networks with varying input structure

Carlo Maffi

We analyze a model of fixed in-degree random Boolean networks in which the fraction of input-receiving nodes is controlled by the parameter gamma. We investigate analytically and numerically the dynamics of graphs under a parallel XOR updating scheme. This ...

Liquid phase sintering of two roughened ice crystals in sucrose solution: A comparison to theory and simulation

Aitor Luque Gomez

We construct an approximate analytic expression for the growth of the neck between two sintering roughened crystals in contact with a melt. The result combines recent work on early phase sintering [R.S. Farr, M.J. Izzard, Phys. Rev. E 77 (2008) 041608], an ...

Cooperative Dynamics of Loyal Customers in Queueing Networks

Max-Olivier Hongler, Olivier Gallay

We consider queueing networks (QN) with feedback loops roamed by ``intelligent'' agents, able to select their routing on the basis of their measured waiting times at the QN nodes. This is an idealized model to discuss the dynamics of customers who stay loy ...

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 ...
