  2. 1. Efficient Temporal Reasoning with Uncertainty

    Author : Mikael Nilsson; Patrick Doherty; Jonas Kvarnström; Félix Ingrand; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Temporal Reasoning; Dynamic Controllability; Simple Temporal Network with Uncertainty; Incremental Algorithms; Temporal Networks;

    Abstract : Automated Planning is an active area within Artificial Intelligence. With the help of computers we can quickly find good plans in complicated problem domains, such as planning for search and rescue after a natural disaster. When planning in realistic domains the exact duration of an action generally cannot be predicted in advance. READ MORE

  4. 2. Peakflow response of stream networks : implications of physical descriptions of streams and temporal change

    Author : Anna Åkesson; Anders Wörman; Alberto Viglione; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Streamflow routing; peakflow predictions; parameterization; hydrological response; stage-dependency; flooded cross-sections; stream networks; backwater effects; temporal change; land use change; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

    Abstract : Through distributed stream network routing, it has quantitatively been shown that the relationship between flow travel time and discharge varies strongly nonlinearly with stream stage and with catchment-specific properties.Physically derived distributions of water travel times through a stream network were successfully used to parameterise the streamflow response function of a compartmental hydrological model.

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; complex systems; complex networks; network analysis; empirical networks; air transportation; consumer complaints; information technology; sexual contacts; epidemics; vaccination; Statistical physics; Statistisk fysik; Computational physics; Beräkningsfysik; Technology and social change; Teknik och social förändring; Epidemiology; Epidemiologi; Information technology; Informationsteknik; fysik; Physics; Statistics; statistik; Epidemiology; epidemiologi; Economics; nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : We are constantly struggling to understand how nature works, trying to identify recurrent events and looking for analogies and relations between objects or individuals. Knowing patterns of behavior is powerful and fundamental for survival of any species. READ MORE

  6. 4. Tightly knit : spreading processes in empirical temporal networks

    Author : Fariba Karimi; Petter Holme; Vittoria Colizza; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : We live in a tightly knit world. Our emotions, desires, perceptions and decisions are interlinked in our interactions with others. We are constantly influencing our surroundings and being influenced by others. In this thesis, we unfold some aspects of social and economical interactions by studying empirical datasets. READ MORE

  7. 5. Conceptualising Solutions in Business Networks: The Case of Heavy Vehicle Maintenance

    Author : Klas Hedvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Heavy Vehicle Maintenance; Temporal Embeddedness; Spatial Embeddedness; Solutions; ARA Model; Interaction Centric; Business Networks; Industrial Network Approach;

    Abstract : This thesis problematises and conceptualises the phenomenon of solutions in business networks based on processual approaches to solutions and the Industrial Network Approach to business markets. In particular, the thesis focuses on the interorganisational and interactive aspects involved in solutions embedded in business networks. READ MORE
