  2. 16. Parallelism in Event-Based Computations with Applications in Biology

    Author : Pavol Bauer; Stefan Engblom; Markos A. Katsoulakis; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Event-based computations; Parallel algorithms; Discrete-event simulation; Monte-Carlo methods; Systems biology.; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Event-based models find frequent usage in fields such as computational physics and biology as they may contain both continuous and discrete state variables and may incorporate both deterministic and stochastic state transitions. If the state transitions are stochastic, computer-generated random numbers are used to obtain the model solution. READ MORE

  4. 17. Essays on Mergers and Acquisitions and Event Studies

    Author : Mohammad Irani; Lars Nordén; Rickard Sandberg; Neslihan Ozkan; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; mergers and acquisitions; event study; prediction; payment method; conditional CAPM; time-varying parameters; structural change methodology; variance; covariance; företagsekonomi; Business Administration;

    Abstract : This dissertation consists of three studies on the anticipation of mergers and acquisitions (M&As) and its impact on takeover event studies. Article I investigates whether the market can anticipate both takeovers and their payment forms prior to their announcement dates. READ MORE

  5. 18. Supporting Decision-Making in the Design of Production Systems : A Discrete Event Simulation perspective

    Author : Erik Flores-García; Jessica Bruch; Magnus Wiktorsson; Mats Jackson; Thomas Ditlev Brunø; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; production system design; Discrete Event Simulation; process innovation; decision-making; Innovation and Design; innovation och design;

    Abstract : Manufacturing companies are introducing process innovations, namely new production processes or technologies, to achieve increased competitiveness. Production systems design can ensure the fulfillment of process innovations. READ MORE

  6. 19. Resource-Predictable and Efficient Monitoring of Events

    Author : Jonas Mellin; Sten F. Andler; Sharma Chakravarthy; Ulf Nilsson; Peter Fritzson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; composition; efficiency; event; formalization; monitoring; performance; predictability; real-time systems; time complexity; timeliness; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : We present a formally specified event specification language (Solicitor). Solicitor is suitable for real-time systems, since it results in resource-predictable and efficient event monitors. READ MORE

  7. 20. Event Prediction and Bootstrap in Time Series

    Author : Anders Svensson; Matematisk statistik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Statistics; bootstrap control.; statistical bootstrap; catastrophe; level-crossings; ARMAX process; Optimal alarm system; time series; optimal event predictor; operations research; programming; actuarial mathematics; Statistik; operationsanalys; programmering; aktuariematematik;

    Abstract : Alarm systems are used in many situations, and should be as efficient as possible. In this thesis optimal predictive alarm systems, event predictors, are presented for general linear time series models with external signals. This family of process models include e.g. READ MORE
