1. On the Feasibility of Reinforcement Learning in Single- and Multi-Agent Systems : The Cases of Indoor Climate and Prosumer Electricity Trading Communities
Abstract : Over half of the world’s population live in urban areas, a trend which is expected to only grow as we move further into the future. With this increasing trend in urbanisation, challenges are presented in the form of the management of urban infrastructure systems. READ MORE

3. Trace metals in the atmosphere : the wet deposition of trace metals : the selenium cycle
Abstract : Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Pb and Zn concentrations in wet deposition have been monitored in Sweden since the autumn of 1983. Concentrations of these elements are highest in southern Sweden and decrease northward. Examination of enrichment factors, relative to crustal material, indicate that the major source of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn is anthropogenic emissions. READ MORE

4. A Comparative Study of the Performance of Concurrency Control Algorithms in a Centralised Database
Abstract : "The performance of Concurrency Control Algorithms (CCAs) in databases has been widely studied over the last ten years, mainly using analytic and simluation techniques. Results have been contradictory. The main CCA categories to emerge are locking, timestamping and serial validation. READ MORE

5. Assessing the reliability of detrital zircon in Early-Earth provenance studies
Abstract : Our understanding of the Early Earth and the processes that have shaped its evolution have spawned predominantly from the geochemical and isotopic signatures of a small number of zircon populations around the world. Studies of trace element distributions, Hf and O isotope systematics as well as mineral inclusion chemistry in detrital zircon are combined with U-Pb chronology in order to constrain source rock characteristics.
