It is estimated that over 3 billion Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags have been deployed through 2007. Most tags are used in supply chains where the Electronic Product Code (EPC) and associated business event data are transmitted through RFID networks. Security and privacy issues are critically important in RFID networks because EPC data and their associated business events are valuable assets. Companies need to share these data with restricted business partners and, under some conditions, such as product recall, more widely with regulators and non business partners. At present, no security or privacy framework has been chosen as an EPCglobal standard(industry-driven standards for EPC) due to the difficulty of sharing information between parties who have no direct business relationships and hence no business rules for sharing these data. To date, no security schemes have been deployed that can support data exchange with multiple identity techniques and interchangeable complex business rules, as required by RFID networks. In this thesis, an Interoperable Internet-Scale Security (IISS) framework for RFID networks is proposed. The IISS framework performs authentication and authorization based on an aggregation of business rules, enterprise information, and RFID tag information. IISS provides a protocol for several authentication schemes and identity techniques. It also provides an engine for reasoning over business rules from different domains. Moreover, the IISS framework is able to resolve provenance information of RFID tags, which can identify the history of a particular piece of EPC data through the supply chain.
(cont.) The IISS framework and the IISS ontologies to model the information in RFID networks are also described, and how the IISS framework can be developed for access control in RFID enabled supply chains is discussed. Finally, the IISS framework's efficiency is tested using a supply chain EPC simulator as the testing platform, which allows optimization of the IISS protocol's performance.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleDuring the last decades, Blind Source Separation (BSS) has become a key analysis tool to study multi-valued data. The objective of this thesis is however to focus on large-scale settings, for which most classical algorithms fail. More specifically, it is subdivided into four sub-problems taking their roots around the large-scale sparse BSS issue: i) introduce a mathematically sound robust sparse BSS algorithm which does not require any relaunch (despite a difficult hyper-parameter choice); ii) introduce a method being able to maintain high quality separations even when a large-number of sources needs to be estimated; iii) make a classical sparse BSS algorithm scalable to large-scale datasets; and iv) an extension to the non-linear sparse BSS problem. The methods we propose are extensively tested on both simulated and realistic experiments to demonstrate their quality. In-depth interpretations of the results are proposed

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleLas Aplicaciones Orientadas a Servicios modernas demandan la capacidad de adaptarse a condiciones variables y situaciones inesperadas mientras mantienen un cierto nivel de servio esperado (QoS). Los enfoques de auto-adaptación existentes parecen no ser adacuados debido a sus supuestos no se cumplen en infrastructuras compartidas de gran escala. La principal motivación de nuestra investigación es inerir un conjunto de principios para guiar el desarrollo de servicios auto-adaptativos de gran escala. Nuesto objetivo es proveer abstraciones de modelaje apropiadas, basadas en un marco conceptual claro, y su implemetnacion en un middleware que soporte el desarrollo de estos servicios. Tomando como inspiración conceptos económicos de mercados decentralizados, hemos propuesto una solución basada en tres principios: auto-organización emergente, comportamiento guiado por la utilidad y adaptación sin modelos. Basados en estos principios diseñamos Collectives, un middleware que proveer una solución exhaustiva para los diversos aspectos de adaptación que surgen en el desarrollo de sistemas distribuidos. La adecuación y completitud de Collectives ha sido provada por medio de la implementación de eUDON, un middleware para servicios auto-adaptativos, el ha sido evaluado de manera exhaustiva por medio de un modelo de simulación, analizando sus propiedades de adaptación en diversos escenarios de uso. Hemos encontrado que eUDON exhibe las propiedades esperadas: se adapta a diversas condiciones como picos en la carga de trabajo o fallos masivos, mateniendo su calidad de servicio y haciendo un uso eficiente de los recusos disponibles. Es altamente escalable y robusto; puedeoo ser implementado en servicios existentes de manera no intrusiva; y no requiere la obtención de un modelo de desempeño para los servicios. Podemos concluir que nuestro trabajo nos ha permitido desarrollar una solucion que aborda los requerimientos de auto-adaptacion en escenarios de uso exigentes sin introducir complejidad adicional. En este sentido, consideramos que nuestra propuesta hace una contribución significativa hacia el desarrollo de la futura generación de aplicaciones orientadas a servicios.

Métodos computacionais em engenharia são usados na solução de problemas físicos que não possuem solução analítica ou sua perfeita representação matemática é inviável. Técnicas de métodos numéricos, incluindo o amplamente usado método dos elementos finitos, podem exigir a solução de sistemas lineares com centenas de milhares de equações, demandando altos recursos computacionais (memória e tempo). Nesta tese, nós apresentamos um sistema baseado em plugins para análise numérica em larga escala. O sistema é usado como uma ferramenta original na solução de problemas de otimização topológica usando o método dos elementos finitos com milhões de elementos. Nossa estratégia utiliza uma técnica elemento-por-elemento para implementar um código altamente paralelo para um solver iterativo com baixo consumo de memória. Além disso, a abordagem de plugin proporciona um ambiente completamente flexível e fácil de estender, onde diferentes aplicações, exigindo diferentes tipos de elementos finitos, materiais, solvers lineares e formulações podem ser desenvolvidos e melhorados. O kernel do sistema é mínimo, com apenas um módulo gerenciador de plugin, responsável por carregar os plugins desejados em tempo real usando um arquivo de configuração de entrada. Todas as funcionalidades necessárias para uma determinada aplicação são definidas dentro dos plugins, sem a necessidade de mudar o kernel. Plugins podem disponibilizar ou exigir interfaces adicionais especializadas, onde outros plugins podem ser conectados para compor um sistema mais complexo e completo. Nós apresentamos resultados para uma análise estrutural estática linear elástica e para uma análise estrutural de otimização topológica. As simulações utilizam elementos Q4, hexagonal (Brick8) e prisma hexagonal (Honeycomb), com solvers diretos e iterativos usando computação sequencial, paralela e distribuída. Nós investigamos o desempenho com relação ao uso de memória e escalabilidade da solução para problemas com diferentes tamanhos, de exemplos pequenos a muito grandes em apenas uma máquina e em um cluster. Foi simulado um exemplo de análise estática linear elástica com 500 milhões de elementos em 300 máquinas.
Computational methods in engineering are used to solve physical problems that do not have analytical solution or their perfect mathematical representation is unfeasible. Numerical techniques, including the largely used finite element method, require the solution of linear systems with hundreds of thousands equations, demanding high computational resources (memory and time). In this thesis, we present a plugin-based framework for large-scale numerical analysis. The framework is used as an original tool to solve topology optimization problems using the finite element method with millions of elements. Our strategy uses an element-by-element technique to implement a highly parallel code for an iterative solver with low memory consumption. Besides, the plugin approach provides a fully flexible and easy to extend environment, where different types of applications, requiring different types of finite elements, materials, linear solvers, and formulations, can be developed and improved. The kernel of the framework is minimum with only a plugin manager module, responsible to load the desired plugins during runtime using an input configuration file. All the features required for a specific application are defined inside plugins, with no need to change the kernel. Plugins may provide or require additional specialized interfaces, where other plugins may be connected to compose a more complex and complete system. We present results for a structural linear elastic static analysis and for a structural topology optimization analysis. The simulations use elements Q4, hexahedron (Brick8), and hexagonal prism (Honeycomb), with direct and iterative solvers using sequential, parallel and distributed computing. We investigate the performance regarding the use of memory and the scalability of the solution for problems with different sizes, from small to very large examples on a single machine and on a cluster. We simulated a linear elastic static example with 500 million elements on 300 machines.

This thesis describes a scalable robotic navigation system that builds a map of the robot's environment on the fly. This problem is also known as Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). The SLAM problem has as inputs the control of the robot's motion and sensor measurements to features in the environment. The desired output is the path traversed by the robot (localization) and a representation of the sensed environment (mapping). The principal contribution of this thesis is the introduction of a framework, termed Atlas, that alleviates the computational restrictions of previous approaches to SLAM when mapping extended environments. The Atlas framework partitions the SLAM problem into a graph of submaps, each with its own coordinate system. Furthermore, the framework facilitates the modularity of sensors, map representations, and local navigation algorithms by encapsulating the implementation specific algorithms into an abstracted module. The challenge of loop closing is handled with a module that matches submaps and a verification procedure that trades latency in loop closing with a lower chance of incorrect loop detections inherent with symmetric environments. The framework is demonstrated with several datasets that map large indoor and urban outdoor environments using a variety of sensors: a laser scanner, sonar rangers, and omni-directional video.

The use of natural ventilation strategies in building design has been identified as one viable pathway toward minimizing energy consumption in buildings. Natural ventilation can also reduce the prevalence of the Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) and enhance the productivity of building occupants. This research study sought to develop a framework that can improve the usage of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analyses in the architectural design process for purposes of enhancing the efficiency of natural ventilation strategies in buildings. CFD is a branch of computational physics that studies the behaviour of fluids as they move from one point to another. The usage of CFD analyses in architectural design requires the input of wind environment data such as direction and velocity. Presently, this data is obtained from a weather station and there is an assumption that this data remains the same even for a building site located at a considerable distance away from the weather station. This potentially compromises the accuracy of the CFD analyses as studies have shown that due to a number of factors such the urban built form, vegetation, terrain and others, the wind environment is bound to vary from one point to another. This study sought to develop a framework that quantifies this variation and provides a way for translating the wind data obtained from a weather station to data that more accurately characterizes a local building site. With this accurate site wind data, the CFD analyses can then provide more meaningful insights into the use of natural ventilation in the process of architectural design. This newly developed framework was deployed on a study site at Virginia Tech. The findings showed that the framework was able to demonstrate that the wind flow field varies from one place to another and it also provided a way to capture this variation, ultimately, generating a wind flow field characterization that was more representative of the local conditions.

This thesis describes a system and method for extending the current paradigm of geographic information systems (GIS) to support indoor environments. It introduces features and properties of indoor multi-building environments that do not exist in other geographic environments or are not characterized in existing geospatial models, and proposes a comprehensive representation for describing such spatial environments. Specifically, it presents enhanced notions of spatial containment and graph topology for indoor environments, and extends existing geometric and semantic constructs. Furthermore, it describes a framework to: automatically extract indoor spatial features from a corpus of semi-structured digital floor plans; populate the aforementioned indoor spatial representation with these features; store the spatial data in a descriptive yet extensible data model; and provide mechanisms for dynamically accessing, mutating, augmenting, and distributing the resulting large-scale dataset. Lastly, it showcases an array of applications, and proposes others, which utilize the representation and dataset to provide rich location-based services within indoor environments.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe central theme of this thesis is the development of both a generalised computational model for large-scale brain networks and the neuroinformatics platform that enables a systematic exploration and analysis of those models. In this thesis we describe the mathematical framework of the computational model at the core of the tool The Virtual brain (TVB), designed to recreate collective whole brain dynamics by virtualising brain structure and function, allowing simultaneous outputs of a number of experimental modalities such as electro- and magnetoencephalography (EEG, MEG) and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI). The implementation allows for a systematic exploration and manipulation of every underlying component of a large-scale brain network model (BNM), such as the neural mass model governing the local dynamics or the structural connectivity constraining the space time structure of the network couplings. We also review previous studies related to brain network models and multimodal neuroimaging integration and detail how they are related to the general model presented in this work. Practical examples describing how to build a minimal *in silico* primate brain model are given. Finally, we explain how the resulting software tool, TVB, facilitates the collaboration between experimentalists and modellers by exposing both a comprehensive simulator for brain dynamics and an integrative framework for the management, analysis, and simulation of structural and functional data in an accessible, web-based interface

Using models to simulate and analyze biological networks requires principled approaches to parameter estimation and model discrimination. We use Bayesian and Monte Carlo methods to recover the full probability distributions of free parameters (initial protein concentrations and rate constants) for mass action models of receptor-mediated cell death. The width of the individual parameter distributions is largely determined by non-identifiability but co-variation among parameters, even those that are poorly determined, encodes essential information. Knowledge of joint parameter distributions makes it possible to compute the uncertainty of model-based predictions whereas ignoring it (e.g. by treating parameters as a simple list of values and variances) yields nonsensical predictions. Computing the Bayes factor from joint distributions yields the odds ratio (~20-fold) for competing "direct" and "indirect" apoptosis models having different numbers of parameters. The methods presented in this thesis were then extended to make predictions in eight apoptosis mini-models. Despite topological uncertainty, the simulated predictions can be used to drive experimental design. Our results illustrate how Bayesian approaches to model calibration and discrimination combined with single-cell data represent a generally useful and rigorous approach to discriminating between competing hypotheses in the face of parametric and topological uncertainty.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleComputational rhythm analysis deals with extracting and processing meaningful rhythmical information from musical audio. It proves to be a highly complex task, since dealing with real audio recordings requires the ability to handle its acoustic and semantic complexity at multiple levels of representation. Existing methods for rhythmic analysis typically focus on one of those levels, failing to exploit music’s rich structure and compromising the musical consistency of automatic estimations. In this work, we propose novel approaches for leveraging multi-scale information for computational rhythm analysis. Our models account for interrelated dependencies that musical audio naturally conveys, allowing the interplay between different time scales and accounting for music coherence across them. In particular, we conduct a systematic analysis of downbeat tracking systems, leading to convolutional-recurrent architectures that exploit short and long term acoustic modeling; we introduce a skip-chain conditional random field model for downbeat tracking designed to take advantage of music structure information (i.e. music sections repetitions) in a unified framework; and we propose a language model for joint tracking of beats and micro-timing in Afro-Latin American music. Our methods are systematically evaluated on a diverse group of datasets, ranging from Western music to more culturally specific genres, and compared to state-of-the-art systems and simpler variations. The overall results show that our models for downbeat tracking perform on par with the state of the art, while being more musically consistent. Moreover, our model for the joint estimation of beats and microtiming takes further steps towards more interpretable systems. The methods presented here offer novel and more holistic alternatives for computational rhythm analysis, towards a more comprehensive automatic analysis of music

The main result is represented by a five-stage pattern followed by social entrepreneurs: each stage is firstly described and further linked to specific challenges that social entrepreneurs face and assets they need during the process. It is fundamental to highlight that some of these stages and challenges are peculiar to social entrepreneurship, differing from regular entrepreneurship. The key conclusion is that it is possible to identify a common pattern that could guide current and future social entrepreneurs. Furthermore, this research paper emphasises best practices and lesson learned from current social entrepreneurs by leaving a powerful heritage to who is interested in make a real change in society.

The purpose of my study is to devise a framework that encompasses the strategies put forth by the Colombian government as to advancing the productivity and competitiveness of the country, with an emphasis on finding development alternatives for the medium-scale coal sector, tackling its shortcomings, and improving the sector's situation. The framework integrates three dimensions of analysis including the Colombian national policies for productivity and competitiveness, coal sector development, and environmental conservation. I lay out several coal-development alternatives and evaluate their economic and environmental performances using input-output analysis, and multi-criteria decision analysis for alternative selection. I also model different scenarios prioritizing each of the dimensions of analysis. The results from the scenario analysis show that coal gasification suits best the three dimensions of analysis, providing the highest economic benefits with the least environmental impacts of the proposed development alternatives. In addition, I use Geographic Information Systems to conduct location-suitability analysis for the coal fields in the interior of Colombia. Results of the suitability analysis portray coal fields in the Córdoba and Cundinamarca Provinces as the most suitable regions for coal-gasification development.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleÅldring av låglegerade stål i kärntekniska användningsområden framträder typiskt som ett hårdnande och en försprödning av materialet. Detta på grund av utvecklingen av mikrostrukturen under bestrålning och under rent termiska förhållanden. Bestrålning introducerar jämt fördelade kluster av legeringsämnen. Termisk åldring har däremot visats ge upphov till en mer ojämn fördelning. Klustren hämmar dislokationsrörelsen i materialet och ger därigenom upphov till en ökning av materialets sträckgräns, vid en mer påtaglig åldring det även leda till ett sänkt arbetshårdnande på grund av lokalisering av plastisk töjning i s.k. kanaler/band. Försprödning är en sänkning av materialets brottseghet som en följd av de mikrostrukturella förändringar som sker vid åldring. Arbetet som presenteras i den här avhandlingen har gjorts i syfte till att ta fram ett möjligt ramverk för modellering av låglegerade stål.I Artikel I, används en töjningsgradientbaserad plasticitetsteori för att kunna fånga längdskalebeteenden. Längdskalan i teorin antas vara relaterad till dislokationernas medelfria väg och den förändring den genomgår vid plastisk deformation. Flera utvecklingslagar för längdskalan har analyserats och implementerats i en finita element kod för 2D plan deformation. Denna implementering har använts för att lösa ett testproblem bestående av ren böjning med syfte att undersöka effekterna av utvecklingen hos längdskalan. Alla de utvecklingslagar som presenteras i artikeln ger en minskande längdskala, vilket leder till vad som valt att kallas förlust av icke-lokalitet. Fenomenet leder till ett övergripande mjuknande vid fall där den plastiska töjningsgradienten har stor inverkan på lösningen. Resultaten är i preliminär överenstämmelse med de typer av lokalisering av plastisk töjning som observerats i starkt bestrålade material.I Artikel II utvecklas ett generaliserat spänningsmått i syfte att beskriva klyvbrott, här benämnt effektivt normalspänningsmått. Detta har använts i samband med en icke-lokal svagaste länk modell, som har applicerats på två experimentella studier från den öppna litteraturen i syfte att studera effekterna av det effektiva normalspänningsmåttet. Utöver detta presenteras även nya experiment på ytspruckna provstavar under fyrpunktsböj. I artikeln visas att modellen återskapar sannolikheten för brott för alla undersökta experimentuppställningar, d.v.s. modellen visas vara väl duglig för att överföra brottseghet mellan geometrier.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleSoils are currently threatened by many human activities that jeopardize soil functioning and its ability to provide ecosystem services, vital for human well-being. In order to assess human impacts and to propose new management practices to protect soils, it is necessary to implement assessments of soil quality. Soil quality was defined by Karlen et al. (1997) as “the capacity of soil to function […]”. However, in the literature, most of study focus on assessment of soil properties and intrinsic states rather than focusing on the soil functioning and the multiple interactions within the complex system. This study proposes a new integrative approach of the soil quality from direct assessment of the functions carried out by the soil biological assemblages, namely Biofunctool®. Biofunctool® allows for assessing three soil functions (carbon transformation, nutrient cycling, structure maintenance) based on twelve functional, in-field and low-tech indicators. Biofunctool® was applied over several case studies in Thailand to assess the impact of various land management on soil quality. The results pinpointed the impact of the conversion from an annual cropping system to a perennial one on soil; it also raised the evolution of soil quality over perennial tree stands and the impact of cover crop in rubber tree systems. The local assessment of soil integrative quality was then scaled up, to be integrated within the Life Cycle Assessment framework through a predictive model approach. The model developed allows to meet the current demand in defining integrative indicators of soil quality adapted to global scale environmental frameworks
