  2. 1. Improving the performance of distributed multi-agent based simulation

    Author : Dawit Mengistu; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; agent based simulation; MABS; distributed systems; application performance;

    Abstract : This research investigates approaches to improve the performance of multi-agent based simulation (MABS) applications executed in distributed computing environments. MABS is a type of micro-level simulation used to study dynamic systems consisting of interacting entities, and in some cases, the number of the simulated entities can be very large. READ MORE

  4. 2. Applying Simulation to the Problem of Detecting Financial Fraud

    Author : Edgar Alonso Lopez-Rojas; Stefan Axelsson; Thomas Walmann; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; security; privacy; anonymisation; multi-agent-based simulation; MABS; ABS; retail store; fraud detection; synthetic data; mobile money;

    Abstract : This thesis introduces a financial simulation model covering two related financial domains: Mobile Payments and Retail Stores systems. The problem we address in these domains is different types of fraud. We limit ourselves to isolated cases of relatively straightforward fraud. READ MORE

  5. 3. Potential role of anti-cytokine autoantibodies in the regulation of cytokine responses in infections and autoimmune diseases

    Author : Rihab Abdel Magid Awad El Karim; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : cytokines; autoantibodies; MS; AM; ST; MGUS; GBS; lower respiratory tract infection; mAbs;

    Abstract : Anti-cytokine autoantibodies are serum proteins that bind cytokines and specifically interfere with measurements and biological activities of the corresponding cytokines. Plasma, sera, and CSF were obtained from patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), aseptic meningitis (AM), stroke (ST), and polyneuropathy, Guillain Barré Syndrome (GBS). READ MORE

  6. 4. Radioimmunotherapy of Metastatic Disease - Studies of Alpha- and Beta-particle-Emitting Radionuclides in a Preclinical Model

    Author : Sophie Eriksson; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radioimmunotherapy; Antibody therapy; Lutetium-177; Astatine-211; Syngeneic tumor model; Colon carcinoma; Metastases; Autoradiography;

    Abstract : In radioimmunotherapy, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are used as a targeting agent carrying a toxic payload consisting of radionuclides. This treatment allows the irradiation of small lesions, even on the microscopic level. In the present work, two radionuclides with different properties were used. READ MORE

  7. 5. Multi-Agent Based Simulations in the Grid Environment

    Author : Dawit Mengistu; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Grid computing; Multi-agent Based Simulation; Performance Modeling; Performance Prediction;

    Abstract : The computational Grid has become an important infrastructure as an execution environment for scientific applications that require large amount of computing resources. Applications which would otherwise be unmanageable or take a prohibitively longer execution time under previous computing paradigms can now be executed efficiently on the Grid within a reasonable time.
