The global public good of climate stabilization, pursued in the negotiations leading up to the Kyoto Protocol, provides a useful case study of the political problems that can arise in attempts to reconcile structural or procedural aspects of justice and fa ...
In a distributed stream processing system, streaming data are continuously disseminated from the sources to the distributed processing servers. To enhance the dissemination efficiency, these servers are typically organized into one or more dissemination tr ...
Ranking systems such as those in product comparison sites and recommender systems usually use ratings to rank favorite items based on both their quality and popularity. Since higher ranked items are more likely selected and yield more revenues for their ow ...
In this paper we explore the trend of professionalization, with a focus on autonomization, in the Swiss wastewater sector. The aim is to evaluate the performance of water utilities in terms of legitimacy, efficiency and effectiveness in the context of auto ...
This paper presents two weak partially synchronous system models Manti(n-k) and Msink(n-k), which are just strong enough for solving k-set agreement: We introduce the generalized (n-k)-loneliness failure detector L(k), which we first prove to be sufficient ...
In this paper, we present a general method, based on a convex optimisation technique, that facilitates the coupling of climate and economic models in a cost-benefit framework. As a demonstration of the method, we couple an economic growth model à la Ramsey ...
This article presents the analysis of the power efficiency of the inductive links used for remote powering of the biomedical implants by considering the effect of the load resistance on the efficiency. The optimum load condition for the inductive links is ...
This paper describes new optimization strategies that offer significant improvements in performance over existing methods for bridge-truss design. In this study, a real-world cost function that consists of costs on the weight of the truss and the number of ...
Mode choice is influenced by quantitative aspects such as cost and time, but importance should be given to qualitative aspects such as people's attitudes or perceptions towards the different modes as well. These latent characteristics can be integrated int ...
A new procedure for benchmarking analysis has been developed to evaluate the energy efficiency of a chemical process. Benchmarking is performed to identify process inefficiencies before developing energy enhancement measures. The new procedure combines typ ...
