Abstract:
Coordinating activities in a distributed system is an open research topic. Several models have been proposed to achieve this purpose such as message passing, publish/subscribe, workflows or tuple spaces. We have focused on the latter model, trying to overcome some of its disadvantages. In particular we have applied spatial database techniques to tuple spaces in order to increase their performance when handling a large number of tuples. Moreover, we have studied how structured peer to peer approaches can be applied to better distribute tuples on large networks. Using some of these result,

Abstract:
This thesis aims to introduce some relevant notion to demonstrate how digital innovation may benefit all phases of the development of a construction project. It has proven possible, through the use of the BIM technique, to optimize the design, construction, and administration phases of structures. With the aid of virtual reality, it is feasible to reproduce a complete immersion experience of the structure during the design phase. The two scenarios illustrated in this thesis need to be considered as two different approaches to technological innovation. From LaVallée project, the first scenario,

Coastal communities are vulnerable to tropical cyclones. Community resilience assessment for hazard mitigation planning demands a whole-of-community approach to risk assessment under tropical cyclones. Community risk assessment is complicated since it must capture the spatial correlation among individual facilities due to similar demands placed by a cyclone event and similar infrastructure capacities due to common engineering practices. However, the impact of such spatial correlation has seldom been considered in cyclone risk assessment. This study develops advanced stochastic models and me

Dynamic load balancing is a key factor in achieving high performance for large scale distributed simulations on grid infrastructures. In a grid environment, the available resources and the simulation's computation and communication behavior may experience run-time critical imbalances.

A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. Johannesburg, 2014.<br>Developing countries are faced with a number of health-care challenges: long waiting hours of patients in long queues is just one of such challenges. The key cause of this has been identi ed to be a lack, or uneven distribution human resources among health facilities. This sets the stage for poor and ine cient delivery of quality primary health care, especially to the rural dweller as they usually hav

Abstract:
abstract: Governance of complex social-ecological systems is partly characterized by processes of autonomous decision making and voluntary mutual adjustment by multiple authorities with overlapping jurisdictions. From a policy perspective, understanding these polycentric processes could provide valuable insight for solving environmental problems. Paradoxically, however, polycentric governance theory seems to proscribe conventional policy applications: the logic of polycentricity cautions against prescriptive, top-down interventions.

Abstract:
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) can include multiple technologies and applications combined to improve the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the transportation system or network. These applications are deployed with the anticipation that the desired project goals and objectives established by multiple stakeholders will be achieved. Once a system is deployed, the project goals and objectives should be evaluated. The evaluation can provide both quantitative and qualitative feedback to assess the impacts associated with the investment in building, designing and implementing thes

Abstract:
In South Africa, the levels of unemployment and poverty are extremely high and these are two of South Africa’s most pressing problems. Over the past 28 years several major programmes have been initiated in South Africa to counter unemployment and poverty. Between 1980 and 1994, the former government spent billions of Rands on large-scale development programmes with the stated objective of using labour-intensive methods during the provision of physical infrastructure, to create employment and alleviate poverty. However, this did not solve the unemployment problem. Since 1994 the African

The central city of the region often broadens into the border area because some measures taken just like the setting of Infrastructure (e.g. hospitals, government machinery buildings, parks, schools etc.), new roads, routes of the urban planning and so on, which push forward the use of the land around, change the urban landscape anew and adjust the urban ecology system again.

In this paper, we are trying to build a streamlined bug report mechanism for large-scale IT infrastructure based on multi-source log aggregation, and provide open data base on it.

Abstract:
In different domains, engineers have long used models to assess the feasibility of system designs; over other evaluation techniques modeling has the key advantage of not exercising a real instance of the system, which may be costly, dangerous, or simply unfeasible (e.g., if the system is still under design). In the development of critical systems, modeling is most often employed as a fault forecasting technique, since it can be used to estimate the degree to which a given design provides the required dependability attributes, i.e., to perform quantitative dependability analysis.
