The Genesis of Molecular Volcano Plots

Matthew Wodrich, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Michael Markus Busch, Boodsarin Sawatlon

For the past two decades, linear free energy scaling relationships and volcano plots have seen frequent use as computational tools that aid in understanding and predicting the catalytic behavior of heterogeneous and electrocatalysts. Based on Sabatier's pr ...

A Third Way Alternative; Critical Assessments from the Model of the Yugoslav City

Jana Konstantinova

This dissertation aims to demonstrate the development, meaning and significance of cultural infrastructure in the cities of Skopje, Belgrade and Sarajevo (1945-1991). In the historic context, culture became the fundamental critical tool with which to yield ...

DELF: Safeguarding deletion correctness in Online Social Networks

Georgios Damaskinos

Deletion is a core facet of Online Social Networks (OSNs). For users, deletion is a tool to remove what they have shared and control their data. For OSNs, robust deletion is both an obligation to their users and a risk when developer mistakes inevitably oc ...

Introducing a Paper-Based Programming Language for Computing Education in Classrooms

Francesco Mondada, Christian Giang, Andrea Mussati, Aditya Mehrotra, Noé Duruz

Past research has shown that the use of tangible platforms for computingeducation can enhance students’ interest, engagement and collaboration within workgroups. However, to this day, the adoption of such interfaces in classrooms has remained relatively sc ...

Stochastic Optimization with Adaptive Batch Size: Discrete Choice Models as a Case Study

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin, Gael Lederrey

The 2.5 quintillion bytes of data created each day brings new opportunities, but also new stimulating challenges for the discrete choice community. Opportunities because more and more new and larger data sets will undoubtedly become available in the future ...

Consolidation of database check constraints

Nikola Obrenovic

Independent modeling of various modules of an information system (IS), and consequently database subschemas, may result in formal or semantic conflicts between the modules being modeled. Such conflicts may cause collisions between the integrated database s ...

An Analysis of Lightning Activity in the Säntis Region through the Big Hiatus in Global Warming

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Aleksandr Smorgonskii

The response of local lightning to local surface temperature is examined near the Säntis mountain (2502 m ASL) in the eastern Swiss Alps during the first of the two hiatuses in global warming covering the time periods 1940-1972 and 1998-2014. The mountain ...

Process-oriented Life Cycle Assessment framework for environmentally conscious manufacturing

Ian Anthony Stroud

Environmental concern requires manufacturers to extend the domain of their control and responsibility across the product's life cycle. Much of the research has concentrated on assessment of environmental performance through the application of the Life Cycl ...

Fast iterative retrieval algorithm for ultrashort pulse characterization using dispersion scans

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes

We present an iterative retrieval algorithm based on data constraint for ultrashort pulse characterization using dispersion scan (d-scan). The proposed algorithm is much faster and leads to a drastic reduction of retrieval times, but, compared to the stand ...

Fast Queries Over Heterogeneous Data Through Engine Customization

Anastasia Ailamaki, Ioannis Alagiannis, Manolis Karpathiotakis

Industry and academia are continuously becoming more data-driven and data-intensive, relying on the analysis of a wide variety of heterogeneous datasets to gain insights. The different data models and formats pose a significant challenge on performing anal ...

Scaling up Mixed Workloads: a Battle of Data Freshness, Flexibility, and Scheduling

Anastasia Ailamaki, Iraklis Psaroudakis

The common "one size does not fit all" paradigm isolates transactional and analytical workloads into separate, specialized database systems. Operational data is periodically replicated to a data warehouse for analytics. Competitiveness of enterprises today ...

Database Queries in Java

Christopher Ming-Yee Iu

In conventional programming languages like Java, the interface for accessing databases is often inelegant. Typically, an entire separate database query language must be embedded inside a conventional programming language for programmers to access the full ...

Real-Time Update of 3D Deformable Models for Computer Aided Liver Surgery

Charles Baur, Benoît Dagon

Providing accurate image-guidance for soft-tissue interventions remains a complex task. Most of the time, preoperative models and planning data are no more valid during the surgical process due to motions and deformations of the organ of interest. In this ...

Model refactoring using transformations

Slavisa Markovic

Modern software is reaching levels of complexity encountered in biological systems; sometimes comprising systems of systems each of which may include tens of millions of lines of code. Model Driven Engineering (MDE) advocates raising the level of abstracti ...

Concrete syntax definition for modeling languages

Frédéric Fondement

Model Driven Engineering (MDE) promotes the use of models as primary artefacts of a software development process, as an attempt to handle complexity through abstraction, e.g. to cope with the evolution of execution platforms. MDE follows a stepwise approac ...
