  1. 1. Demand Responsive Planning : A dynamic and responsive planning framework based on workload control theory for cyber-physical production systems

    Author : Hakan Akillioglu; Mauro Onori; Marcello Colledani; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Demand responsive planning; continuous workload control; cyber-physical production systems; evolvable production systems; dynamic capacity adjustment; Industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Engineering and Management; SRA - Production; SRA - Produktion; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Abstract : Recent developments in the area of Cyber-Physical Production Systems prove that high technology readiness level is already achieved and industrialization of such technologies is not far from today. Although these technologies seem to be convenient in providing solutions to environmental uncertainties, their application provides adaptability only at shop floor level. READ MORE

  3. 3. Vacua in String Theory : de Sitter Space and Stability in Flux Compactifications

    Author : Sergio C. Vargas; Ulf Danielsson; Alessandro Tomasiello; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; String theory; Cosmology; Flux Compactifications; Landscape; Swampland;

    Abstract : Our understanding of cosmology has evolved radically in the last decades. Current models demand the presence of dark energy in our universe and the most favored candidate behind this component is a small positive cosmological constant that characterizes a de Sitter (dS) spacetime.

  4. 4. Game Theory and Agents

    Author : Stefan J. Johansson; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Game Theory; Multi-Agent Systems; No Free Lunch Theorem; Characteristic Distributions;

    Abstract : A fundamental problem in multi agent systems is conflict resolution. A conflict occurs in general when the agents have to deal with inconsistent goals, such as a demand for shared resources. We investigate how a game theoretic approach may be a helpful and efficient tool in examining a class of conflicts in multi agent systems. READ MORE

  5. 5. Studies in climate change policy : theory and experiments

    Abstract : Emission Quota Trade Among the Few: Laboratory Evidence of Joint Implementation Among Committed Countries. The purpose of the laboratory tests reported here is to identify a well-functioning design, tailored for an upcoming unique experiment using real-world relevant decision makers for carbon emission reductions trade among four countries committed to binding carbon emission limits, a form of so-called joint implementation.
