Abstract:
The motor system composes complex actions by combining simpler submovements. This presumably involves sharing information about the progress of one submovement with the centres controlling another submovement, to ensure that the second happens in an appropriate relation to the first. This process is called coordination. In this paper Idiscuss evidence that coordinating actions indeed involves an active process of sharing information about the current state of movements. Coordination appears to be qualitatively different from the process of reacting to external stimuli. This may reflect the importance of predictive representations in coordination. Finally, the processes underlying coordination appear to be organized in a response-specific fashion, as a number of relatively independent circuits. The development and tuning of these circuits may, in part, be what makes an action “skilled”.

Abstract:
Many common behaviours require people to coordinate the timing of their actions with the timing of others' actions. We examined whether representations of musicians' actions are activated in coperformers with whom they must coordinate their actions in time and whether coperformers simulate each other's actions using their own motor systems during temporal coordination. Pianists performed right-hand melodies along with simple or complex left-hand accompaniments produced by themselves or by another pianist. Individual performers' preferred performance rates were measured in solo performance of the right-hand melody. The complexity of the left-hand accompaniment influenced the temporal grouping structure of the right-hand melody in the same way when it was performed by the self or by the duet partner, providing some support for the action corepresentation hypothesis. In contrast, accompaniment complexity had little influence on temporal coordination measures (asynchronies and cross-correlations between parts). Temporal coordination measures were influenced by a priori similarities between partners' preferred rates; partners who had similar preferred rates in solo performance were better synchronized and showed mutual adaptation to each other's timing during duet performances. These findings extend previous findings of action corepresentation and action simulation to a task that requires precise temporal coordination of independent yet simultaneous actions.

Abstract:
Humans have a striking ability to coordinate their actions with each other to achieve joint goals. The tight interpersonal coordination that characterizes joint actions is achieved through processes that help with preparing for joint action as well as processes that are active while joint actions are being performed. To prepare for joint action, partners form representations of each other’s actions and tasks and the relation between them. This enables them to predict each other’s upcoming actions, which, in turn, facilitates coordination. While performing joint actions, partners’ coordination is maintained by (a) monitoring whether individual and joint outcomes correspond to what was planned, (b) predicting partners’ action parameters on the basis of familiarity with their individual actions, (c) communicating task-relevant information unknown to partners in an action-based fashion, and (d) relying on coupling of predictions through dense perceptual-information flow between coactors. The next challenge for the field of joint action is to generate an integrated perspective that links coordination mechanisms to normative, evolutionary, and communicative frameworks.

We deal with n-player coordination games with vanishing actions, which are repeated games where all non-diagonal entries yield zero-payoffs, and where, moreover, at any stage beyond ri any player i loses any action that she has not used during the previous ri stages of play. For these games we examine the set of equilibrium rewards, where we treat the two-player case and the more player case separately. Folk-theorem like results are established.

Abstract:
The issue of bimanual temporal coordination in human subjects is discussed for three selected movement paradigms: (i) simple, symmetric, bimanual finger movements, (ii) bimanual unloading, and (iii) a complex bimanual pull and grasp task. Temporal synchronization was found for all three experiments and was least variable for the first experiment. In the second experiment, synchronization concerned unloading with the index finger of one hand (electromyographic activation of the first dorsal interosseus muscle) and the postural adjustment of the load-bearing index finger of the other hand (electromyographic deactivation of the first dorsal interosseus muscle). In the third experiment, a goal-related temporal invariance was observed, even in the absence of visual guidance. Possible neural mechanisms for the observed temporal coordination of the three types of bimanual movements are discussed, as well as the concepts of goal invariance and motor equivalence.Key words: bimanual coordination, temporal invariance, motor equivalence.

Abstract:
The coordination function of the State in combating corruption is the level of manifestation of the State influence in social relations and the main activity of the State, which consists in coordinating actions between different elements of the State apparatus in combating corruption, in coordinating actions between the State apparatus and non-governmental actors of the social system, in streamlining social and public administration relations, directing them towards achieving common goals or interests, and in which the method of direct imperative control is used rather than the method of coordinating actions in relation to based on common interests and/or competencies, in accordance with the principle of striving for ideal performance. Anti-corruption activities can only be effective if the principles of coordination of anti-corruption actors are established at the regulatory level and the principles of administrative and legal support for coordination of anti-corruption actors are established, which is due to the need for quick and complete coordination and its effective implementation. The need to study the principles of administrative and legal regulation of the State's coordination function in combating corruption is due to the existence of gaps in the theoretical plane of law cognition and limited scientific substantiation. That is why the issues related to administrative and legal regulation of the State's coordination function in combating corruption are relevant for research, and its principles are among the key ones in this context. In general, the coordination role of the state is hardly ever considered through the prism of principles. Given the extremely low level of scientific attention to the issue of administrative and legal support for the coordination of anti­corruption actors, its essence, features and directions, one of the priority tasks should be to define a system of principles of this institution as the basic and initial idea of the entire system of state influence on social relations. Even today, the principles of administrative and legal support for the coordination of anti-corruption actors are not yet considered fundamental categories, as many scholars still perceive them in the abstract and separately from practical activities.

The results suggest that beginners dominated coordination, performed individually, while the highly skilled dancers better developed coordination, carried out in pairs. Athletes average individual coordination disturbed by the emergence of sex differences build movements and coordination pair is not formed. The asymmetry of the coordination abilities manifested in the predominance of the deviation from equilibrium (to the right of men and to the left – in women).

Abstract:
The energy sector is evolving and the role of the Transmission System Operator (TSO)must adapt to these new changes. In fact, the energy transition modies both the natureof the production sources by integrating intermittent energies and the classical structureof the grid, going from a centralized topology to a distributed topology.In this particular context, the TSO has to balance production and demand while ensuringthat the system is operated in a safe and optimal manner. These new challengescan not be achieved by independently, it is necessary to introduce a strong coordinationand collaboration between European members. This desire to co-ordinate the operatingmethods of the system on a European scale as well as to harmonize the market in orderto favor exchanges, is pushed by the European Commission in the form of NetworkCodes. In order to maximize the exchanges between bidding zones, it is necessary tocalculate the available exchange capacity and assess potential risks for the grid by conductingjoint analyzes between neighboring countries. If there is a risk of congestion on anetwork element because of an excessive exchange between TSO, it is possible to managethis overload by activating measures called Remedial Actions.The legal framework requiresTSOs to establish a detailed coordination methodology for Capacity Calculation,Common Security Analyzes and activation of Remedial Actions.In addition, the activation of RA often leads to a signicant cost for the TSO concerned.These congestion management costs may arise especially in particular situations of highdemand, poorly estimated production or modied topology due to a fault. Given thatthese risks of congestions are sometimes induced by neighboring bidding zones, it isnecessary to also foresee a methodology for sharing these costs so as not to penalize theTSOs polluted by their neighbors.This thesis provides a detailed description of this process for a particular region ofEurope. Indeed, the region linking the west center to the east center is the heart ofthe European network and trade. This particular position induces many dicultiesand dierent methodologies to answer them. During this project I was led to analyzethese possibilities on dierent scenarios, propose improvements or new approaches. Inparticular, this report highlights the factors that have a strong inuence on the sharingof Remedial Actions costs in order to allow the TSOs members of this region to have abetter visibility and transparency on the consequences of such a methodology.
Energisektorn utvecklas och Transmissionssystemoperatörens roll måste anpassas tilldessa nya förändringar. Faktum är att energitransitionen ändrar både produktionen av produktionskällorna genom att integrera intermittenta energier och den klassiska strukturen i nätet, från en centraliserad topologi till en distribuerad topologi. I detta speciella sammanhang måste TSO balansera produktion och efterfrågan medan ensäkerställa att systemet drivs på ett säkert och optimalt sätt. Dessa nya utmaningar kan inte uppnås oberoende, det är nödvändigt att införa ett starkt koordinerande samarbete mellan europeiska medlemmar. Denna önskan om att samordna systemets driftsmetoder på europeisk nivå samt att harmonisera marknaden för att främja utbyten drivs av Europeiska kommissionen i form av NetworkCodes. För att maximera utbytena mellan budgivningszonerna är det nödvändigt att beräkna den tillgängliga utbytesförmågan och bedöma potentiella risker för nätet genom att genomföra gemensamma analyser mellan grannländerna. Om det finns risk för trängsel på anetwork-elementet på grund av en överdriven växling mellan TSO, är det möjligt att hantera överbelastning genom att vidta åtgärder som kallas Remedial Actions. Den rättsliga ramen kräver att TSO: erna upprättar en detaljerad samordningsmetodik för kapacitetsberäkning, gemensam säkerhet Analyser och aktivering av avhjälpande åtgärder. Vidare leder aktiveringen av RA ofta till en betydande kostnad för den berörda TSO. Dessa kostnader för hantering av överbelastning kan uppstå speciellt i speciella situationer av highdemand, dålig uppskattad produktion eller modifierad topologi på grund av ett fel. Med tanke på att dessa risker för trängsel orsakas ibland av angränsande budgivningszoner är det nödvändigt att även förutse en metod för att dela dessa kostnader för att inte bestraffa dem som förorenas av sina grannar. Denna avhandling ger en detaljerad beskrivning av denna process för en viss region i Europa. Faktum är att regionen som kopplar västcentrum till östcentrum är hjärtat av det europeiska nätverket och handeln. Denna speciella position inducerar många svårigheter och olika metoder för att svara på dem. Under detta projekt ledde jag till att analysera möjligheter i olika scenarier, föreslå förbättringar eller nya tillvägagångssätt. I synnerhet betonar denna rapport de faktorer som har ett starkt inflytande på delningen av kostnaderna för avhjälpande åtgärder för att tillåta TSO: s medlemmar i denna region att ha bättre synlighet och insyn om konsekvenserna av ensådan metod.

Abstract:
The overall goal of this study was to explore the nature of planning in children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DeD) using non-Representational and Representational gestures and praxis imagery. This goal was addressed three core aims which were: i) to compare the nature of praxic performance between two groups of children with OeD; one selected from schools (sDCD) and another from clinics (cOCO) with typically developing age-matched children (AMC); ii) to allow a direct comparison of praxic performance between sDCD and cOCO groups and iii) to compare the nature of praxic performance between the two DCD groups with two younger typically developing groups. A number of specific objectives examined the variables that affected the outcomes. These variables were related to: i) task difficulty and scoring systems ii) the description of the categories and single errors produced in representational gestures and iii) additional factors distinguished sOCD and cDeD groups on motor and educational profile, emotional and social behaviour. Overall the assessments indicated that oeD children have a deficiency in planning, with evidence of problems in execution. Poor organization of their body in time and space predominantly characterize their problems with strong signs of spatial disorganization suggestive of mental representation and visuoperceptual problems, and perhaps memory problems. The cOCO group showed a more severe profile across measurements cqmpared to the sOCD group and comparisons with younger groups indicated developmental delay without excluding pathology that was more likely to be the case for the cOeD group.

Abstract:
: Mon travail de thèse a porté sur l’étude neurocomportementale des actions et des habitudes chez le Rat. En effet, lors d’un apprentissage opérant la réponse peut être acquise selon deux systèmes associatifs. Le premier dépend d’une représentation des conséquences de la réponse, le second d’une association plus « simple » entre le stimulus et la réponse. Un premier axe de recherche a consisté à étudier plusieurs paramètres du conditionnement, afin de déterminer leur influence sur le contrôle de la réponse instrumentale par un système plutôt que l’autre. Le deuxième axe de recherche a porté sur l’étude des substrats neuronaux impliqués dans l’acquisition et l’expression d’une action, par l’intermédiaire de techniques d’inactivation cérébrale et d’étude immuno-histochimique de l’expression génique de la protéine Fos
Previous research has established that instrumental conditioning, in both primates and rats, is mediated by two concurrent associative systems. In early stages of training, instrumental response is thought to be mediated by an association between the action and the outcome (A-O). While training proceeds however, as the response becomes less sensible to the outcome value, it is conceived as being mediated by an association between thestimulus and the response (S-R). Recent evidences suggest that the both systems operate in tandem and/or competition from the beginning of training. This work aimed at studying the mechanisms that coordinate the control of the instrumental response by the goal-directedsystem or the habit system. A first batch of results indicates no effect of the amount of training sessions on the goal-directed nature of the conditioned instrumental response. Indeed,the outcome devaluations by CTA or selective satiety reduced the instrumental performances,independently of the training procedure applied. The instrumental responses resulting from our 3 training procedures depend of an actualized representation of their outcomes. A secondbatch of results indicates that information about the context of instrumental conditioning isincluded in the incentive representation of the outcome. Indeed, we observed no sensitivity tooutcome devaluation when devaluation occurred outside the training context. These results offer new original hypotheses about context encoding and the nature of instrumental responding. A third batch of experiments investigates the role of the prelimbic cortex in acquisition vs. expression of goal-directed instrumental behaviour, using reversible neuronal inactivation. The results show that the prelimbic cortex plays a transient but crucial role in theacquisition of goal-directed responding and that the A-O and S-R systems can operate in a competitive fashion early in training. Using ex-vivo imaging, a last batch of experiments aimed to study the temporal cerebral activation throughout instrumental training with a focuson prefrontal and striatal regions. Results show levels of Fos expression that vary with regions. At the beginning of conditioning, the density of Fos positive nuclei is high in the prefrontal regions. It decreases with training. Labelling is denser in the dorsomedial striatumthan in the dorsolateral striatum. The weak activation in the dorsolateral striatum appears consistent with the absence of habit. These data are in accordance with data of the literature concerning dynamics of activation in cortico-striatal circuits. Furthermore, they are in agreement with the suggestion that activity in the prelimbic cortex could promote the acquisition of goal-directed action by the induction of neuronal plasticity in the dorsal striatum

Abstract:
Business Intelligence (BI) is a topic that has attracted attention from both researchers and practitioners. Despite BI's promising possibilities, few organizations are able to transform BI-insights into actions. Thus, the purpose of this study was to understand: How organizations can transform BI insights into actions, and which capabilities impact this transformation. In order to obtain this understanding, a case-study was conducted. We interviewed six consultants from leading consultancy firms, and a practitioner who uses BI on a daily basis. Prior to this, the authors reviewed previous BI literature which suggests that BI needs to be combined with capabilities for employees to utilize BI. Microfoundations was used as a theoretical framework to identify important capabilities and how they relate to BI. The findings distinguished specific capabilities that impacts the ability to utilize BI. Capabilities such as communication, sponsorship, culture, and clear strategies & goals, are important in order to better take advantage of BI. The conclusions are that hard skills (e.g. technical competencies), education and experience among the employees may not be as crucial as previously thought. This is because BI-systems are becoming more intuitive and easier to use.

Abstract:
Coordinated movement is critical not only to sports technique and performance but to daily living and as such represents a fundamental area of research. Coordination requires being able to produce the right actions at the right time and has to incorporate perception, cognition, and forceful neuro-muscular interaction with the environment. Coordinated movements of the hands and fingers are some of the most complex activities undertaken where continuous learning and adaptation take place, but the temporal variability of the most basic movement components is still unknown. This thesis investigates the extent of temporal variability in the execution of four different simple hand and finger coordination tasks, with the purpose to find the various intrinsic temporal variability which limit the ability to coordinate the hands in space and time. Study one showed that in a synchronized bi-lateral two finger tapping test (<<1 cm movement to target) the best participant had a temporaltiming variability of 4.8 ms whereas the largest time variability could be as high as 24.8 ms. No obvious improvement was found after transfer practice, whereas the average time variability for asynchronized tapping decreased from 62.1 ms to 30.3 ms after instructed practice indicating a likely change in task grouping. Study two showed that in a unilateral thumb-index finger pinch and release test, the largest mean timing variability was 12 ms for pinching irrespective of performing the task in a slow alert manner or at a faster speed. However, the mean temporal variability for release was only 6.3 ms when the task was performed in a more alert manner and indicates that release is more accurately controlled temporally than grip. Study three suggested that in a unilateral sagittal plane throwing action of the lower arm and hand, that elbow and wrist coordination for dynamic index finger tip location was better with a radial-ulnar deviation, darts-type, throwing action than a wrist flexor-extensor type action, basketball free throw type action (the mean variability was 37.5 ms and 27.2 ms, respectively). Study four compared the variability in bi-lateral finger tapping between voluntary tapping and involuntary finger contraction tapping. Electrically stimulated neural contractions had significantly lower force onset variability than voluntary or direct magnetic stimulation of muscles (6 ms, 9.5 ms, and 10.3 ms for electrically stimulated, voluntary and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation stimulated contraction). This work provides a comprehensive analysis of the temporal variability in various fundamental digital movement tasks that can aid with the understanding of basic human coordination in sporting, daily living and clinical areas.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis was to investigate manual asymmetries in the reach-to-grasp movement based on two hypotheses: 1) manual asymmetries are resultant from asymmetries in the dorsal vision-for-action system; and 2) manual asymmetries are contingent on task difficulty. Participants grasped glasses of water under different visual-feedback conditions. Demand was manipulated by varying the level of the water contained in the glass. Hand asymmetries of the reach-to-grasp movement were studied through kinematic analyses. Visual feedback availability and task demand affected all kinematic measures. Manual asymmetries were found in peak velocity, movement time, and variability of maximum grip aperture. Consistent with reach-to-point literature, reach-to-grasp actions were faster and more accurate when performed with the right hand and when guided by the dorsal vision-for-action system. The results of the thesis provide support for a theory of left-hemisphere specialization for the visual control of actions.

Abstract:
La régulation du contentieux international des actions de groupe constitue le prolongement dans l'ordre international des fonctions poursuivies par une action de groupe dans l'ordre interne -l'accès en justice, l'efficacité économique et la régulation des marchés - et vise à assurer la sécurité juridique, la prévisibilité et l 'harmonie internationale des solutions ; objectifs également partagés par le droit international privé. Cette régulation s'avère pourtant difficile et complexe, notamment en raison de la concurrence exercée par les ordres juridiques en matière de redressement des dommages de masse, et de l'inadéquation des méthodes et instruments de droit international privé à la résolution d'un contentieux complexe, impliquant une multitude de parties et présentant une forte dimension régulatoire. La globalisation du contentieux international des actions de groupe soulève donc des questions complexes de conflits de juridictions, de conflits de lois, de coordination de procédures ainsi que de reconnaissance et d'exécution des décisions.C'est à ces questions complexes que cette thèse propose de répondre. Les solutions proposées tiennent compte des intérêts enchevêtrés que revêt le contentieux de groupe international, et visent essentiellement à prévenir des hypothèses de sous-régulation et de sur-régulation susceptibles d'empoisonner aujourd'hui le contentieux de masse international
The regulation of international disputes arising out of group actions consists of safeguarding the functions underlying a domestic group action procedure in the context of international litigation (i.e. access to justice, economic efficiency and market regulation). It also aims to ensure the legal certainty, the predictability and harmony of solutions; the latters are objectives also pursued by the rules of private international law. Such regulation reveals difficult to achieve, in light of the competition arising between the legal systems in relation to the redress of global mass damages and the failure of private international law methods and instruments to address complex disputes putting at stake large number of parties and having a strong regulatory dimension. Thus, the globalisation of group actions disputes raises complex questions of conflicts of jurisdictions, conflicts of laws, coordination of procedures and enforcement of decisions.This PhD dissertation aims at addressing all these complex questions. The suggested solutions take into account the intertwined interests underlying disputes arising out of international group actions and aim essentially to prevent the current intoxication of international mass litigation resulting from the occurrence of situations of under-regulation and overregulation

Abstract:
AbstractIn multi-agent settings, such as IoT and robotics, it is necessary to coordinate the actions of independent agents in order to achieve a joint behavior. While it is often easy to specify the desired joint behavior, programming the necessary coordination can be difficult. In this work, we develop theory and methods to synthesize coordination strategies that are guaranteed not to initiate unnecessary actions. We refer to such strategies as being “compact.” We formalize the intuitive notion of compactness; show that existing methods do not guarantee compactness; and propose a solution. The solution transforms a given temporal logic specification, using automata-theoretic constructions, to incorporate a notion of minimality. The central result is that the winning strategies for the transformed specification are precisely the compact strategies for the original. One can therefore apply known synthesis methods to produce compact strategies. We report on prototype implementations that synthesize compact strategies for temporal logic specifications and for specifications of multi-robot coordination.

AbstractCoordinating creative group work remains a major organizational challenge, especially in teams with specialists representing distinct knowledge domains. The author defines coordination as the process through which people arrange actions in ways that they believe will enable them to accomplish their goals. An increase of complex tasks, specialization and interdependencies among specialists make the question of how coordination occurs in teams of diverse experts particularly relevant to the study of organizations.

AbstractThe term “governance” is generally understood to mean the steering and coordination of actions and its broadest definition encompasses various forms and their processes (cf. Gailing/ Hamedinger 2019). They range from official, i.e. state-run, top-down steering and coordination to forms of self-steering without state actors (Mayntz/Scharpf 1995, Blatter 2007). This understanding of governance is grounded in social theory and differs from a narrower understanding sthat emphasizes the shift from state forms of steering and coordination.

Abstract:
AbstractGovernance is both a contested concept and an increasingly empirical concern. On the one hand, it has become an almost universal and all-encompassing concept, which has attracted scholarly interest from many disciplines and over many decades to tackle the dilemmas of collective action and to facilitate effective coordination of interests and resources toward commonly accepted goals. On the other hand, conceptions of governance vary considerably, and their meanings depend on disciplinary perspectives, theoretical traditions, and empirical focus. Although it is easy to agree what governance is not, it is more challenging to create broad consensus on what it is and how it works effectively. Most capaciously, governance denotes the coordination of collective action. These actions take place in institutionally or physically organized spaces of interaction, where knowledge is needed to shape governance appropriately. Organized spaces and knowledge are both conditions as well as consequences of the governance process.

Abstract:
In polymatrix coordination games, each player x is a node of a graph and must select an action in her strategy set. Nodes are playing separate bimatrix games with their neighbors in the graph. Namely, the utility of x is given by the preference she has for her action plus, for each neighbor y, a payoff which strictly depends on the mutual actions played by x and y. We propose the new class of distance polymatrix coordination games, properly generalizing polymatrix coordination games, in which the overall utility of player x further depends on the payoffs arising by mutual actions of players v,z that are the endpoints of edges at any distance h<d from x, for a fixed threshold value d≤n. In particular, the overall utility of player x is the sum of all the above payoffs, where each payoff is proportionally discounted by a factor depending on the distance h of the corresponding edge. Under the above framework, which is a natural generalization that is well-suited for capturing positive community interactions, we study the social inefficiency of equilibria resorting to standard measures of Price of Anarchy and Price of Stability. Namely, we provide suitable upper and lower bounds for the aforementioned quantities, both for bounded-degree and general graphs.

Full text
Abstract:
Coordination abilities are a set of human properties manifested in the training process and in competitive activity, which determines the success in the management of motor actions of different coordination levels (Lyach, 2002). According to Anochin (1979), an anticipation is a particular form of “overtaking reflection”, in which the image of the result of the action of its actual appearance (occurrence) is formed in the mind of man. Based on this statement, we will try to improve the performance of athletes. Improving the results by choosing the right action according to the feedback received after the first attempt and focusing attention and actions on rational and pragmatic implementation, which we expect to improve results and reduce repetitions in the study of new actions. In our view, a way to achieve this goal would be through work to improve the anticipation capabilities of athletes. The problem of anticipation in sports games is of utmost importance for achieving victory in the completion between offender and defender. Coordination of movements is related to coordination with objects, people, animals, and machines, the behavior and movement of which are often unpredictable (Videv, 2015). In turn, anticipation produces skill-actions (respectively, counteractions) that are confidently carried out within a fraction of a second, called “improvisation”, which is significantly increased by targeted multi-year preparation from childhood (7-8 years). Based on everything so far mentioned, we decided to test the coordination abilities of athletes and, at the same time, see how they would act in subsequent situations similar to the previous one to improve their performance by applying their anticipation skills. Our results point to our assertion that creating an image of your work and bringing anticipation actions into the implementation of performance, in this case, the implementation of various coordination exercises, would improve the performance of athletes.

Abstract:
We present a multi-agent learning algorithm, ALMA-Learning, for efficient and fair allocations in large-scale systems. We circumvent the traditional pitfalls of multi-agent learning (e.g., the moving target problem, the curse of dimensionality, or the need for mutually consistent actions) by relying on the ALMA heuristic as a coordination mechanism for each stage game. ALMA-Learning is decentralized, observes only own action/reward pairs, requires no inter-agent communication, and achieves near-optimal (<5% loss) and fair coordination in a variety of synthetic scenarios and a real-world meeting scheduling problem. The lightweight nature and fast learning constitute ALMA-Learning ideal for on-device deployment.

Abstract:
We present a scalable planning algorithm for multi-agent sequential decision problems that require dynamic collaboration. Teams of agents need to coordinate decisions in many domains, but naive approaches fail due to the exponential growth of the joint action space with the number of agents. We circumvent this complexity through an anytime approach that allows us to trade computation for approximation quality and also dynamically coordinate actions. Our algorithm comprises three elements: online planning with Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), factorizing local agent interactions with coordination graphs, and selecting optimal joint actions with the Max-Plus method. On the benchmark SysAdmin domain with static coordination graphs, our approach achieves comparable performance with much lower computation cost than the MCTS baselines. We also introduce a multi-drone delivery domain with dynamic, i.e., state-dependent coordination graphs, and demonstrate how our approach scales to large problems on this domain that are intractable for other MCTS methods.

Full text
Abstract:
Prior full-scale research with the fire service was primarily designed to isolate specific tactics, most often either ventilation or suppression, which allowed researchers to develop science-based recommendations related to the specific components of fireground operations studied in relatively controlled conditions. The current project went beyond earlier research by conducting twenty experiments in eight acquired, single-family residential structures and that combined fireground tactics to quantify the impact of coordination between ventilation and suppression actions. This experimental series included second-story bedroom fires (14 experiments) and first-floor kitchen fires (6 experiments). The main control variables studied included the position of initial application of water, the ventilation method, and the timing of ventilation relative to water application. The ventilation tactics examined in these experiments included horizontal, vertical, positive pressure, and hydraulic ventilation, while the suppression tactics included both interior water application and initial exterior water application followed by interior water application. While some elements of the experiments (e.g. structure floor plan and weather) resulted in increased variability, the lessons learned highlighted the importance of having a systematic approach to the implementation of tactics. Most importantly, there was no meaningful increase in temperature outside of fire rooms when ventilation tactics were executed in coordination with (shortly after or shortly before) the onset of suppression. The effectiveness of suppression actions in extinguishing the fire were dependent on the ability of those actions to 1) cool surfaces in the fire room and 2) wet unburned fuel. Exterior suppression actions on second-floor bedroom fires resulted in a decrease in temperatures throughout the second floor, followed by regrowth prior to final suppression through interior streams. When exterior suppression was performed on first-floor kitchen fires, where more complete fuel wetting was possible, regrowth was not observed prior to interior suppression. When surface cooling or fuel wetting are not possible due to the elevation of the fire room, missing ceiling, or obstacles, firefighters should consider alternative means of water distribution to improve the effectiveness of suppression actions from outside the fire room. Suppression actions, whether interior or exterior, generally resulted in a decrease in temperatures and gas concentrations at locations where occupants may potentially be located. Conditions improved most quickly at locations closest in proximity to the inlet of the flow path established between the front door and the fire room. For this reason, opening an exterior door to gain access should be thought of as an important ventilation action, both in terms of its potential to cause fire growth and its potential to improve conditions for potentially trapped occupants. After effective suppression, structure ventilation operations should similarly be cognizant of gas flows, with the aim of establishing flow throughout all areas where occupants may be located.

Full text
Abstract:
The majority of the existing full-scale fire service research studied the impact of tactics on the residential fireground, specifically in single-family structures. This study builds upon prior research by conducting thirteen experiments in three-story, multi-family dwellings to quantify the impact of coordination between ventilation and suppression actions. Experiments were conducted in four, garden-style apartment buildings; each of which had two lower-level units, four first-floor units, and four second-floor units. The apartments shared a common stairwell that was enclosed for all of the experiments in this study. To examine the effectiveness of tactics in the fire apartment, common stairwell and applicable exposure apartments, four experiments were conducted in lower-level apartments, seven were conducted in first-floor apartments, and two were conducted in second-floor apartments including both bedroom and kitchen/living room fires. The fire size varied based on the amount of initial ventilation provided. The main control variables included the location of initial water application, the ventilation method, and the timing of ventilation relative to water application. The suppression tactics included interior water application, exterior water application followed by interior water application, and a combined interior and exterior water application. The ventilation tactics examined in these experiments included horizontal, vertical, positive pressure, and hydraulic ventilation. Similar to previous experiments in acquired single-family structures, there was no meaningful increase in temperature outside of fire rooms when ventilation tactics were executed in close coordination with (shortly after or shortly before) the onset of suppression. In contrast, for experiments where ventilation occurred with delayed suppression, temperature exposures increased throughout the fire apartment, and in experiments where the apartment door was left open, temperatures and carbon monoxide exposures increased throughout the common stairwell. Suppression actions, whether interior or exterior, resulted in a decrease in temperatures and gas concentrations at locations where occupants may potentially be located. The enclosed common stairwell, a unique feature of this experimental series, acted as capture of combustion products. Opening the apartment door to gain access should be thought of as an important ventilation action, both in terms of its potential to cause fire growth and its potential for smoke movement into the stairwell, limiting the egress for potentially trapped occupants in exposure units. Tactics such as door control, positive pressure ventilation, and hydraulic ventilation which were used both simultaneous with and sequentially post-suppression were shown to limit gas flows into the stairwell. After effective suppression, structure ventilation operations should similarly be cognizant of gas flows, with the aim of establishing flow throughout all areas where occupants may be located.

Abstract:
Malawi is one of the most committed countries in Africa to improving nutrition, yet it still has one of the highest rates of malnutrition in the region and is struggling to turn commitments into action at scale. The advocacy component of the Afikepo project strengthened capacity of national and district government and Civil Society Organisation (CSO) representatives to plan, budget and advocate for scaling up nutrition commitments at national and in 10 districts. These actions improved awareness, coordination and commitment to prioritise nutrition across sectors, within government, and CSOs and a wide range of actors at national and district level, which in turn improved governance and accountability. However, these actions did not have a substantial effect on domestic funding allocations, which are still heavily reliant on external donors. This brief summarises lessons learned and recommendations from the various advocacy and capacity building efforts over the past four years.

Abstract:
Publicly Shared Data: A Gap Analysis of Researcher Actions and Institutional Support throughout the Data Life Cycle examines research data management and sharing practices at six research-intensive academic institutions: Cornell University, Duke University, University of Michigan, University of Minnesota, Virginia Tech, and Washington University in St. Louis. Sponsored by the US National Science Foundation (grant #2135874) and part of ARL’s Realities of Academic Data Sharing (RADS) Initiative, this report highlights where service gaps may exist between researchers’ needs and the services and support provided by institutions. This report offers guidance for academic institutions aiming to improve coordination of their research data management and sharing services and infrastructure. It is particularly relevant for institutions developing strategies to support researchers effectively and efficiently in response to existing and forthcoming federal mandates on data sharing. This report is also useful in institutional planning for resource allocation of research data management and sharing services towards compliance as well as broader open science objectives.
