  2. 1. Inducing large-scale diffusion of innovation : An integrated actor- and system-level approach

    Author : Ingrid Mignon; Anna Bergek; Johanna Nählinder; Volker Hoffmann; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Innovation; large-scale diffusion; adopters; actor; system; drivers; challenges; motives; strategies; policies; renewable electricity; technology; intermediaries;

    Abstract : In order for the innovation process to be successful, not only do innovations need to be developed and reached the market, but, once they are available for users, they have to spread on a large scale. In the innovation literature, a complete explanation is lacking of why some innovations reach a phase of large-scale diffusion faster than others, including both actor- and system-level components.

  4. 2. Self-Management for Large-Scale Distributed Systems

    Author : Ahmad Al-Shishtawy; Vlassov Vlassov; Seif Haridi; Per Brand; Leandro Navarro Moldes; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Self-Management; Autonomic Computing; Control Theory; Distributed Systems; Grid Computing; Cloud Computing; Elastic Services; Key-Value Stores; SRA - ICT; SRA - Informations- och kommunikationsteknik;

    Abstract : Autonomic computing aims at making computing systems self-managing by using autonomic managers in order to reduce obstacles caused by management complexity. This thesis presents results of research on self-management for large-scale distributed systems. READ MORE

  5. 3. On H-infinity Control and Large-Scale Systems

    Author : Carolina Bergeling; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; H-infinity Control; Decentralized Control; Large-Scale Systems; Infinite-Dimensional Systems;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a class of linear time-invariant systems is identified for which a particular type of H-infinity optimal control problem can be solved explicitly. It follows that the synthesized controller can be given on a simple explicit form. READ MORE

  6. 4. Compositional optimization of large-scale discrete event systems

    Author : Fredrik Hagebring; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Discrete Event Systems; Automation; Large-scale optimization; Discrete Optimization; Compositional Optimzation;

    Abstract : Optimization of industrial processes such as manufacturing cells can have great impact on their performance. Finding optimal solutions to these large-scale systems is, however, a complex problem. They typically include multiple subsystems, and the search space generally grows exponentially with each subsystem. READ MORE

  7. 5. Enhancing Short-Term Traffic Prediction for Large-Scale Transport Networks by Spatio-Temporal Clustering

    Author : Matej Cebecauer; Erik Jenelius; Wilco Burghout; Francisco Camara Pereira; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; short-term prediction; clustering; spatio-temporal clustering; day-types; speed-flow relationship; large-scale; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Abstract : Congestion in large cities is responsible for extra travel time, noise, air pollution, CO2 emissions, and more. Transport is one of the main recognized contributors to global warming and climate change, which is getting increasing attention from authorities and societies around the world. READ MORE
