2. 1. Capacity allocation mechanisms for grid environments

   Author : Peter Gardfjäll; Erik Elmroth; Bo Kågström; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Grid computing; capacity allocation; allocation enforcement; accounting; Grid-wide fairshare scheduling; Web services; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

   Abstract : During the past decade, Grid computing has gained popularity as a means to build powerful computing infrastructures by aggregating distributed computing capacity. Grid technology allows computing resources that belong to different organizations to be integrated into a single unified system image – a Grid. READ MORE

4. 2. Resource Allocation under Uncertainty : Applications in Mobile Communications

   Author : Mathias Johansson; Anders Ahlén; Mikael Sternad; Vikram Krishnamurthy; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Signalbehandling; resource allocation; uncertainty; probability theory as logic; scheduling; multiuser diversity; Jaynes; maximum entropy; Bayesian probability theory; Signalbehandling; Signal processing; Signalbehandling; Signal Processing; signalbehandling;

   Abstract : This thesis is concerned with scheduling the use of resources, or allocating resources, so as to meet future demands for the entities produced by the resources. We consider applications in mobile communications such as scheduling users' transmissions so that the amount of transmitted information is maximized, and scenarios in the manufacturing industry where the task is to distribute work among production units so as to minimize the number of missed orders.

5. 3. Complex Task Allocation for Delegation : From Theory to Practice

   Author : David Landén; Patrick Doherty; Silvia Coradeschi; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Multi-agent systems; task allocation; distributed constraint satisfaction; delegation; UAV; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : The problem of determining who should do what given a set of tasks and a set of agents is called the task allocation problem. The problem occurs in many multi-agent system applications where a workload of tasks should be shared by a number of agents. READ MORE

6. 4. Utilization and allocation of organs for transplantation - medical and ethical aspects

   Author : Marie Omnell-Persson; Kirurgi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; estetik; metafysik; kunskapsteori; ideologi; Immunology; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi; ideology; epistemology; aesthetics; metaphysics; Systematic philosophy; ethics; utilization; organ donation; kidney transplantation; Allocation; attitudes; Praktisk filosofi;

   Abstract : Great efforts have been made to find solutions to the shortage of organs, such as extending the donor pool by accepting so-called marginal donors and development of transplantation of organs from animals (xenotransplantation, xt). Due to the scarcity of organs, there is a long tradition of prioritizing among patients on the waiting list for transplantation. READ MORE

7. 5. System Expansion and Allocation in Life Cycle Assessment With Implications for Wastepaper Management

   Author : Tomas Ekvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; modelling; paper recycling; waste incineration; environmental life cycle assessment; LCI methodology; allocation; waste management; system expansion; system boundaries; life cycle inventory analysis;

   Abstract : The choice of system boundaries and allocation methods can have decisive effects on the results and conclusions of a life cycle assessment (LCA). System expansion makes it possible to model the indirect effects of a decision; however, this modelling is often based on inaccurate assumptions. READ MORE
