Abstract:

This thesis concerns the statistical modelling of animal movement paths given observed GPS locations. With observations being in discrete time, mechanistic models of movement are often formulated as such. This popularity remains despite an inability to compare analyses through scale invariance and common problems handling irregularly timed observations. A natural solution is to formulate in continuous time, yet uptake of this has been slow, often excused by a difficulty in interpreting the ‘instantaneous’ parameters associated with a continuous-time model. The aim here was to bolster usage by developing a continuous-time model with interpretable parameters, similar to those of popular discrete-time models that use turning angles and step lengths to describe the movement process. Movement is defined by a continuous-time, joint bearing and speed process, the parameters of which are dependent on a continuous-time behavioural switching process, thus creating a flexible class of movement models. Further, we allow for the observed locations derived from this process to have unknown error. Markov chain Monte Carlo inference is presented for parameters given irregular, noisy observations. The approach involves augmenting the observed locations with a reconstruction of the underlying continuous-time process. Example implementations showcasing this method are given featuring simulated and real datasets. Data from elk (Cervus elaphus), which have previously been modelled in discrete time, demonstrate the interpretable nature of the model, finding clear differences in behaviour over time and insights into short-term behaviour that could not have been obtained in discrete time. Observations from reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) reveal the effect observation error has on the identification of large turning angles—a feature often inferred in discrete-time modelling. Scalability to realistically large datasets is shown for lesser black-backed gull (Larus fuscus) data.

Al, Hakmani Rahab. "Bayesian Estimation of Mixture IRT Models using NUTS." OpenSIUC, 2018. https://opensiuc.lib.siu.edu/dissertations/1641.

Full text

Abstract:

The No-U-Turn Sampler (NUTS) is a relatively new Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm that avoids the random walk behavior that common MCMC algorithms such as Gibbs sampling or Metropolis Hastings usually exhibit. Given the fact that NUTS can efficiently explore the entire space of the target distribution, the sampler converges to high-dimensional target distributions more quickly than other MCMC algorithms and is hence less computational expensive. The focus of this study is on applying NUTS to one of the complex IRT models, specifically the two-parameter mixture IRT (Mix2PL) model, and further to examine its performance in estimating model parameters when sample size, test length, and number of latent classes are manipulated. The results indicate that overall, NUTS performs well in recovering model parameters. However, the recovery of the class membership of individual persons is not satisfactory for the three-class conditions. Also, the results indicate that WAIC performs better than LOO in recovering the number of latent classes, in terms of the proportion of the time the correct model was selected as the best fitting model. However, when the effective number of parameters was also considered in selecting the best fitting model, both fully Bayesian fit indices perform equally well. In addition, the results suggest that when multiple latent classes exist, using either fully Bayesian fit indices (WAIC or LOO) would not select the conventional IRT model. On the other hand, when all examinees came from a single unified population, fitting MixIRT models using NUTS causes problems in convergence.

Abstract:

The research presented in this thesis, studies driver gap acceptance behavior for permissive left turn movements at signalized intersections. The thesis attempts to model the gap acceptance behavior using three different approaches, a deterministic statistical approach, a stochastic approach, and a psycho-physical approach. First, the deterministic statistical modeling approach is conducted using logistic regression to characterize the impact of a number of variables on driver gap acceptance behavior. The variables studied are the gap duration, the driverâ s wait time in search of an acceptable gap, the time required to travel to clear the conflict point, and the rain intensity. Considering stochastic gap acceptance, two stochastic approaches are compared, namely: a Bayesian and a Bootstrap approach. The study develops a procedure to model stochastic gap acceptance behavior while capturing model parameter correlations without the need to store all parameter combinations. The model is then implemented to estimate stochastic opposed saturation flow rates. Finally, the third approach uses a psycho-physical modeling approach. The physical component captures the vehicle constraints on gap acceptance behavior using vehicle dynamics models while the psychological component models the driver deliberation and decision process. In general, the three proposed models capture gap acceptance behavior for different vehicle types, roadway surface conditions, weather effects and types of control which could affect the driver gap acceptance behavior. These findings can be used to develop weather responsive traffic signal timings and can also be integrated into emerging IntelliDrive systems.

Abstract:

The question we posed at the beginning of this thesis was whether, in the presence of a clinical superiority of one of two possible treatments, it was possible to find an appropriate statistical methodology that would allow us to reach this goal. We were thus led to explore many possibilities to carry out this analysis and randomly assign patients to the two treatments, as required by the particular nature of these experiments. Specifically, we made a close examination of the methods of randomization, especially appreciating the flexibility of the adaptive responses, and could see the strengths of urn models. We started with the study of the urn for excellence, Polya's urn. Next, we analyzed some extensions and generalizations, focusing especially on two kinds of urns with random reinforcement. We exposed the results obtained throughout simulations concerning the convergence of the proportion of the best treatment, which came from the comparison of the models studied. In the end, we showed how the urn model works in a real case, comparing two treatments with continuous response in one ICU trial on Melatonin. We'll see how the properties demonstrated in theory are confirmed in practice. The project ends by giving a hint of a new adaptive model that we have started to idealize in collaboration with the team of Prof. Parmigiani and Prof. Trippa of the "Biostatistics and Computational Biology" Department, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

Abstract:

Most safety analysis is conducted using crash data. Surrogate safety measures, such as various time-based measures of time-to-collision can be related to crash potential and used to gain insight into the frequency and severity of crashes at a specific location. One of the most common and acknowledged measures is post-encroachment time (PET) which defines the time between vehicles occupying a conflicting space. While commonly used in studies of motor vehicle interactions, studies of PET for bicycle-vehicle interactions are few. In this research, the PET of bicycle-vehicle interactions measured in the field, a driving simulator, and in a micro-simulation are compared. A total of 52 right-hook conflicts were identified in 135 hours of video footage over 14 days at a signalized intersection in Portland, OR (SW Taylor and SW Naito Pkwy). The results showed that 4 of 17 high-risk conflicts could not be identified by the conventional definition of PET and PET values of some conflicts did not reflect true risk of collision. Therefore, right-hook conflicts were categorized into two types and a modified measure of PET was proposed so that their frequency and severity were properly measured. PETs from the field were then compared to those measures in the Oregon State University driving simulator during research conducted by Dr. Hurwitz et al. (2015) studying the right-hook conflicts. Statistical and graphical methods were used to compare field PETs to those in the simulator. The results suggest that the relative validity of the OSU driving simulator was good but not conclusive due to differences in traffic conditions and intersections. To further explore the field-observed PET values, traffic simulation models of the field intersection were developed and calibrated. Right-hook conflicts were extracted from the simulation files and conflicts observed in PM-peak hours over 6 days in the field were compared to those obtained from 24 traffic simulation runs. The field-observed PET values did not match the values from the simulation values very well. However, the approach does show promise. Further calibration of driving and bicycling behaviors would likely improve the result.

Full text

Abstract:

Today’s telecommunication cabinets use Electro Magnetic Compliance (EMC) screens in order to reduce electromagnetic noise that can cause some miss functions in electronic equipment. Many radio base stations (RBSs) use a 90-degree building architecture: the flow inlet is perpendicular to the EMC screen, which creates a complex flow, with a 90-degree air turn, expansions, compressions, perforated plates and PCBs. It is of great interest to study how the EMC screen interacts with the rest of components and analyze the total pressure drop and how much the flow pattern changes due to the placement of the screen. Velocity, pressure and temperature measurements as well as flow pattern visualizations have been carried out to gain good insight into the flow and heat transfer characteristics in a subrack model of an RBS. Furthermore, these measurements have been very useful for validating detailed CFD models and evaluating several turbulence models. Nowadays, industrial competition has caused a substantial decrease in the time-to-market of products. This fact makes the use of compact models in the first stages of the design process of vital importance. Accurate and fast compact models can to a great extent decrease the time for design, and thus for production. Hence, to determine the correlations between the pressure drop and flow pattern on the PCBs as a function of the geometry and the Reynolds number, based on a detailed CFD parametric study, was one objective. Furthermore, the development of a compact model using a porous media approach (using two directional-loss coefficients) has been accomplished. Two correlations of these directional loss coefficients were found as a function of the geometry and Reynolds number.

Abstract:

Rational conversion of biologically active peptides to nonpeptide compounds with retained activity is an appealing approach in drug development. One important objective of the work presented in this thesis was to use computational modeling to aid in such a conversion of the peptide angiotensin II (Ang II, Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe). An equally important objective was to gain an understanding of the requirements for ligand binding to the Ang II receptors, with a focus on interactions with the AT2 receptor. The bioactive conformation of a peptide can provide important guidance in peptidomimetic design. By designing and introducing well-defined secondary structure mimetics into Ang II the bioactive conformation can be addressed. In this work, both γ- and β-turn mimetic scaffolds have been designed and characterized for incorporation into Ang II. Using conformational analysis and the pharmacophore recognition method DISCO, a model was derived of the binding mode of the pseudopeptide Ang II analogues. This model indicated that the positioning of the Arg side chain was important for AT2 receptor binding, which was also supported when the structure–activity relationship of Ang II was investigated by performing a glycine scan. To further examine ligand binding, a 3D model of the AT2 receptor was constructed employing homology modeling. Using this receptor model in a docking study of the ligands, binding modes were identified that were in agreement with data from point-mutation studies of the AT2 receptor. By investigating truncated Ang II analogues, small pseudopeptides were developed that were structurally similar to nonpeptide AT2 receptor ligands. For further guidance in ligand design of nonpeptide compounds, three-dimensional quantitative structure–activity relationship models for AT1 and AT2 receptor affinity as well as selectivity were derived.

Full text

Abstract:

This study employs Bayesian Hidden Markov Models as method to explore vehicle traffic flow conditions in an urban area in Stockholm, based on sensor data from separate road positions. Inter-arrival times are used as the observed sequences. These sequences of inter-arrival times are assumed to be generated from the distributions of four different (and hidden) traffic flow states; nightly free flow, free flow, mixture and congestion. The filtered and smoothed probability distributions of the hidden states and the most probable state sequences are obtained by using the forward, forward-backward and Viterbi algorithms. The No-U-Turn sampler is used to sample from the posterior distributions of all unknown parameters. The obtained results show in a satisfactory way that the Hidden Markov Models can detect different traffic flow conditions. Some of the models have problems with divergence, but the obtained results from those models still show satisfactory results. In fact, two of the models that converged seemed to overestimate the presence of congested traffic and all the models that not converged seem to do adequate estimations of the probability of being in a congested state. Since the interest of this study lies in estimating the current traffic flow condition, and not in doing parameter inference, the model choice of Bayesian Hidden Markov Models is satisfactory. Due to the unsupervised nature of the problematization of this study, it is difficult to evaluate the accuracy of the results. However, a model with simulated data and known states was also implemented, which resulted in a high classification accuracy. This indicates that the choice of Hidden Markov Models is a good model choice for estimating traffic flow conditions.

Full text

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the innovations that Mikhail Bulgakov introduced into Russian dramaturgy in the 1920s, the gradual changes in the Soviet, theatrical canon which allowed the implementation of these innovative models on the stage, and the application of these models in post-Soviet dramaturgy of the 1990s–2000s. An analysis of both the texts and productions of post-Soviet, Russian plays reveals a certain trend: Bulgakov's innovative methods from the 1920s allowed the contemporary playwright — as well as the reader, director, and production team — to better understand a new type of conflict, one which is especially prevalent at the juncture of two ages — the conflict between man and his era. As a result, Bulgakov's innovative dramatic methods and techniques allowed post-Soviet playwrights to move away from a description of post-Soviet reality to new ways of thinking about the changing times and their place in them.

Abstract:

A central feature of conversation is that people take it in turns to speak. Typically speaker-listener roles are exchanged in a smooth and orderly fashion, with little or no gap or overlap. To date, within psychology only one comprehensive model of turn-taking has been proposed (Duncan, 1972). This model is cue based and suggests that discrete cues are responsible for the smooth management of conversation. There are, however, a number of fundamental shortcomings in the methodological and conceptual analysis that underpins this model. The aim of this thesis was to address these shortcomings for they have broader implications for our understanding of the turn exchange process. The methodology employed involved both the qualitative and quantitative micro-analysis of conversational data. To test the general significance of this analysis a more experimental approach, involving subjects judgements about particular sections of conversation, was employed. In order to put the generality question to the test, the investigations were based on different types of conversations - face-to-face conversations involving agreement and disagreement and telephone conversations involving travel enquiries and directory enquiries. The research carried out in this thesis has demonstrated that a wider range of information is exploited for turn-taking purposes than previously thought. The turn-taking cues Duncan identified could not provide an adequate explanation of how a smooth exchange of turns was actualised at a particular location. Two judgement studies demonstrated that whilst some conversations were managed by discrete cues as Duncan had suggested, others were not. Further investigations provided evidence that certain aspects of verbal content provide higher order and local information that is important for turn-taking. These investigations thus demonstrated that a cue based model of turn-taking is inadequate and emphasize the need for future work to provide precise explanations about how contextual factors are exploited in this process.

Abstract:

In this article, I introduce a novel airborne network mobility model, called the Smooth Turn Mobility Model, that captures the correlation of acceleration for airborne vehicles across time and spatial coordinates. E?ective routing in airborne networks (ANs) relies on suitable mobility models that capture the random movement pattern of airborne vehicles. As airborne vehicles cannot make sharp turns as easily as ground vehicles do, the widely used mobility models for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks such as Random Waypoint and Random Direction models fail. Our model is realistic in capturing the tendency of airborne vehicles toward making straight trajectory and smooth turns with large radius, and whereas is simple enough for tractable connectivity analysis and routing design.

Abstract:

Mobility models serve as the foundation for evaluating and designing airborne networks. Due to the significant impact of mobility models on the network performance, mobility models for airborne networks (ANs) must realistically capture the attributes of ANs. In this paper, I develop a comprehensive modeling framework for ANs. The work I have done is concluded as the following three parts. First, I perform a comprehensive and comparative analysis of AN mobility models and evaluate the models based on several metrics: 1) networking performance, 2) ability to capture the mobility attributes of ANs, 3) randomness levels and 4) associated applications. Second, I develop two 3D mobility models and realistic boundary models. The mobility models follow physical laws behind aircraft maneuvering and therefore capture the characteristics of aircraft trajectories. Third, I suggest an estimation procedure to extract parameters in one of the models that I developed from real flight test data. The good match between the estimated trajectories and real flight trajectories also validate the suitability of the model. The mobility models and the estimation procedure lead to the creation of “realistic” simulation and evaluation environment for airborne networks.

Abstract:

This work presents an evaluation of the virtual confidence that can be achieved in the software Mechatronic Concept Designer. The virtual confidence is defined as the reliability that a model or software offer, based on their capacity to replicate reality accurately. Reference system for the evaluation is a turn table used at AB Volvo in the production of front lids. After conducting the simulations and different kind of analyses (such as friction analyses), the main conclusion has been that both the original model and the software offered some limitations that made a high level of virtual confidence impossible. Taking into account this fact, future improvement lines have been suggested.

Full text

Abstract:

Interaction designers for mobile phones mainly focus on displays but have only little knowledge about sensor characteristics. Beside multitouch input, mobile devices provide versatile possibilities to interact in a physical, device-based manner due to their built-in hardware. Even though such interactions may provide many advantages in everyday life, they have limited visibility in interaction design. Interaction designers are seldom experts in gesture and pattern recognition and even prototypical implementations of simple mobile-based interactions need advanced technical knowledge. Hence, the potential for designing mobile device-based interactions is often not fully exploited. To contribute to a common knowledge of mobile device-based interactions, this paper proposes Mobile Spaces. This model aims at supporting designers of mobile applications to broaden their view on interaction possibilities with one or more collocated devices which go beyond the screen. We discuss the applicability of Mobile Spaces by means of several examples from research.

Abstract:

A computer simulation model was developed to represent a logging contractorâ s harvesting and trucking system of wood delivery from the contractorâ s in-woods landing to the receiving mill. The Log Trucking System Simulation model (LTSS) focuses on the impacts to logging contractors as changes in truck turn times cause an imbalance between harvesting and trucking systems. The model was designed to serve as a practical tool that can illustrate the magnitude of cost and productivity changes as the delivery capacity of the contractorâ s trucking system changes. The model was used to perform incremental analyses using an example contractorâ s costs and production rates to illustrate the nature of impacts associated with changes in the contractorâ s trucking system. These analyses indicated that the primary impact of increased turn times occurs when increased delivery time decreases the number of loads per day the contractorâ s trucking system can deliver. When increased delivery times cause the trucking system to limit harvesting production, total costs per delivered ton increase. In cases where trucking significantly limits system production, total costs per delivered ton would decrease if additional trucks were added. The model allows the user to simulate a harvest with up to eight products trucked to different receiving mills. The LTSS model can be utilized without extensive data input requirements and serves as a user friendly tool for predicting cost and productivity changes in a logging contractorâ s harvesting and trucking system based on changes in truck delivery times.

Abstract:

Firms are today struggling with setting up successful go-to-market models. Go-to-market (GMT)expenses are reported to be a considerable part of company spending, but in many cases withoutyielding enough return. This case study investigated the concept of go-to-market models and howcompanies successfully can set it up to turn potential into profit. Atea was struggling with setting up their go-to-market model for Midmarket in Stockholm for their Product/volume offering and their dilemma constituted a great opportunity for expanding the relative young field of GTM research.

The problem was approached using an abductive research strategy. The study moved back and forth between theory and empirical data gathered primarily by in-depth and semi-structured interviews with managers at high level in Atea. The nature of the GTM concept was thoroughly examined including its relation to other parts of the organization and the assumptions about underlying economics. Structure throughout the whole research process was achieved by thematization of the problem and methodological adherence.

Merging the empirical findings with existing theory resulted in the first holistic definition of model successfully connects the different components of the GTM-model with each other. Relevant theories are connected to the framework as aid for using the concept as a tool for analysis.

Our findings show that the GTM-model should be an extension of the marketing strategy and the overall business strategy. When setting up a GTM-model it is therefore crucial that the setup has its roots in the overall strategy of the company to ensure a setup that is consistent with the go-tomarketthat relates the concept to overall strategy and marketing strategy. Itcompany’s brand promise. The GTM-model itself is constructed from four main areas; GTM-strategy, segmentation, channel choices and systems and support. GTM-strategy concerns aligning the GTM setup with the overall firm and marketing strategies but also setting priorities based on the underlying economics of target clients as well as priorities based on market data of what are the driving factors of those underlying economics. The segmentation must all available data and should be based on variables of customer needs in terms of problems, buying behavior or desired customer experience. The channels have to reflect the potential of the client and a model has been developed for prioritizing channel choices. The channel choices also depend on the product or service the company is taking to the market. Finally the supporting functions need to have a lean set-up where focus is on cost efficiency while providing the core functions with the support they need. The support function should be responsible for tracking the data required to assess the underlying economics. The four distinct parts are closely integrated and changes in one part will have implications in the other parts.

For Atea a series of actions were developed to improve their performance and profitability of their GTM-model for their Midmarket in Stockholm. The findings of this case study are transferable to the other regions of Atea Sweden but also to other companies within the same industry. The generic concept definition of GTM model is transferable beyond this limit to include all complex business but further research has been suggested to validate these findings. The building blocks and relative importance of the four parts will vary from industry to industry, and from company to company, with regard to the unique capabilities of each specific case.

The model is the first holistic model of the GTM concept that puts the GTM-model in the context of the whole company and provides a definition to avoid concept confusion while being a practical framework to use for analysis. It will therefore be of help to both practitioners setting up successful GTM-models and to researcher of the field of GTM strategy and GTM models.

Acar, Duygu. "Tracking Of Ground Targets With Interacting Multiple Model Estimator." Master's thesis, METU, 2012. http://etd.lib.metu.edu.tr/upload/12613967/index.pdf.

Abstract:

Interacting Multiple Model (IMM) estimator is used extensively to estimate trajectories of maneuvering targets in cluttered environment. In the standard tracking methods, it is assumed that movement of target is applicable to a certain model and the target could be monitored via the usage of status predictions of that model. However, targets can make different maneuvering movements. At that time, expression of target dynamic model with only one model can be insufficient. In IMM approach, target dynamic model is expressed with more than one model capsulating all maneuvering movements or with one model with different noise level values. This thesis investigates the tracking of the maneuvering ground targets in cluttered environment via IMM estimator with constant velocity model with low/high process noise, coordinated turn model and move-stop-move model. The selection strategies of models are highlighted and the state errors are calculated to evaluate the performance of IMM estimator.

Diante dos conflitos por recursos hídricos motivados, muitas vezes, pelo aumento da demanda e pela tentativa de atendimento aos usos múltiplos da água, faz-se necessário o desenvolvimento de estudos que permitam compreender a variabilidade climática e espacial deste recurso. Sendo, o Balanço Hídrico um componente importante nos estudos aplicados na gestão de bacias hidrográficas. Entretanto, um problema encontrado no cálculo deste balanço é a estimativa da evapotranspiração de referência (ETo), um dos mais importantes componentes do balanço hídrico e, ao mesmo tempo, uma das variáveis mais complexas de quantificar. Isto se deve, dentre outros fatores, ao fato das medições serem escassas e dispendiosas. Este trabalho busca estimar a evapotranspiração diária na microbacia hidrográfica do riacho Gameleira, inserida na sub-bacia do rio Tapacurá, localizada na parte Nordeste da Mesoregião Geográfica do Agreste do Estado de Pernambuco. Os dados utilizados na pesquisa são da estação climatológica localizada na Escola Agrotécnica Federal de Vitória de Santo Antão – PE. O período escolhido para simulação foi de 2004 a 2008. Para preencher as falhas existentes na série foram utilizados dados da estação do Laboratório de Meteorologia de Pernambuco (LAMEPE) de Recife, validados por análises estatísticas. E para o cálculo da ETo aplicou-se o modelo SWIM com o método de Penman-Monteith (FAO56), da Food and Agriculture Organization – FAO, e o método modificado de Turc-Ivanov. Como resultados da pesquisa tem-se a calibração do modelo SWIM para estimar a ETo, destacando-se o bom desempenho do método modificado de Turc-Ivanov comparado com o método recomendado pela FAO. Ao final, foi possível estimar a ETo por um método, que requer apenas as seguintes variáveis climatológicas: radiação solar e temperatura do ar. Indicando que métodos mais simples podem apresentar bons resultados na estimativa da Eto, e assim, auxiliar na gestão de bacias hidrográficas.

Full text

Abstract:

Les PME représentent en France et en Turquie près de la totalité des entreprises existantes et jouent un rôle très important dans la régulation de la vie économique et sociale de ces pays. Afin de les protéger mais surtout de les inciter à œuvrer davantage pour une performance d’ordre global, l’action des dirigeants de PME doit être orientée vers une gouvernance socialement responsable. Pour parvenir à cette fin, des moyens empruntés aux règles de la « corporate governance » doivent être adoptés par ces derniers. Toutefois, ces règles de management, prévues à l’origine pour discipliner l’action des dirigeants des grandes firmes américaines de type managérial, sont inadaptées aux PME de type entrepreneurial et familial ainsi qu’au contexte dans lequel cette catégorie d’entreprises évolue. Les dirigeants de PME éprouvent en effet de grandes difficultés à mobiliser des fonds. Ils se doivent d’être pragmatiques pour la pérennité du groupement. C’est donc naturellement qu’ils songent à performer en termes économique avant de songer à performer en termes social ou sociétal. De plus, de nombreux mécanismes de gouvernance ne prennent pas en compte les spécificités organisationnelles et fonctionnelles de cette catégorie d’entreprises. Les dirigeants de PME évoluent dans un contexte proxémique fort marqué par l’informalité des relations avec les « stakeholders ». Peu visibles du grand public, ces entreprises agissent souvent dans un rayon d’activité locale voire régionale. Les dirigeants sont proches de leurs salariés, de leurs fournisseurs et créanciers, de leurs associés ainsi que de leurs clients. La propriété du capital est peu diluée de telle sorte que les fonctions de propriété, de direction et de contrôle sont souvent réunies dans les mains d’une personne forte (le dirigeant-propriétaire) ou de ses proches. Dans ces conditions, les principes de gouvernement d’entreprise tels qu’ils existent sont difficiles à mettre en œuvre par les dirigeants de PME si bien que les modes de gouvernance qu’ils adoptent sont peu influencés par la gouvernance d’entreprise et ses mécanismes
In France and Turkey SMEs make up nearly all current enterprises and play a very important role in the regulation of economic and social life in both countries. In order to protect them, but above all, in order to encourage them to adopt more global performance, the action of SME managers has to be oriented towards socialy responsable governance. To achieve this, they have to adopt the rules of corporate governance. However, these management rules, originally intented to control the action of the managers of big US managerial firms, are not adapted to family and entrepreneurial SMEs and to the context in which this particular category of enterprise evolves. Indeed, SME managers have many difficulties to leverage private funds.They have to adopt a pragmatic approach to ensure the existence of their enterprises. It is quite normal, therefore, for them to do business in economic terms before considering social relations and societal questions. Moreover, many mechanisms of corporate governance don’t take into account the organizational and functional characteristics of this particular category of enterprise. SME managers work in a strong context of proximity characterised by the informality of relations with stakeholders. Such enterprises, since they are barely visible to the general public, often work localy or regionaly. Managers are close to their employees, suppliers and creditors, associates and customers. The ownership of capital property is not diluted very much so that the functions of ownership, management and control are often all in the hands of one strong individual (the owner-manager) or his/her relatives. In these conditions, the principles of corporate governance, as they exist today, are not easily implemented by SMEs managers to the extent that the modes of governance they adopt are barely influenced by corporate governance and its mechanisms

Abstract:

La présente recherche se propose de décrire, d’analyser et de comprendre les problèmes des étudiants en phase d’apprentissage de l’interprétation consécutive avec le turc et le français comme paire de langues de travail et d’étudier leur évolution. Il porte sur la possibilité ou non d’enseigner les principes et les techniques de base de l’interprétation consécutive à des étudiants qui ne sont qu’en licence et qui n’ont pas nécessairement une maîtrise de la langue étrangère suffisante pour être admis à un programme de formation d’interprètes de haut niveau. Le corpus, constitué de transcriptions des prestations des étudiants, de notes prises en consécutive et de témoignages rétrospectifs, a été exploité dans le cadre conceptuel des Modèles d’Efforts de Daniel Gile, de manière à essayer de remonter à l’origine des faiblesses des étudiants. Les résultats présentés font apparaitre une nette progression chez les étudiants entre deux étapes dans la formation, qui s’observe sur des éléments décrits dans la littérature comme faisant partie du savoir-faire de l’interprète professionnel. Ils suggèrent que les étudiants ont effectivement appris les principes et les techniques de base de l’interprétation bien qu’ils ne soient pas dans une école spécialisée en interprétation, ni dans un programme de Master, ce qui constitue une réponse positive à la question de recherche. En outre, la présente recherche discute de la spécificité linguistique de la paire de langues concernée, et de l’intérêt méthodologique de démarche triangulaire adoptée. Des pistes de recherche sont enfin proposées
This research aims to describe, analyze and understand problems that students encounter while learning consecutive interpreting in Turkish and French as a working language pair, and students' progress in coping with the problems. It focuses on the question whether it is possible to teach the basic principles and techniques of consecutive interpretingto undergraduate students who do not necessarily master their foreign working language well enough to be admitted to a high level interpreter training program.The corpus consists of transcriptions of the students' consecutive interpreting performances, notes taken in consecutive interpreting class and retrospective interviews with students. The analysis seeks to trace back the origin of the students’ observed weaknesses within the framework of Gile's Effort Models.Findings show clear progress in the students' consecutive interpreting performance over the two semesters under consideration. It is also observed that students' progress is mainly found in elements which are described as part of the know-how of a professional interpreter in the literature on interpreting. The findings also show that students have learned basic principles and techniques of consecutive interpreting, although they are not enrolled in a Master's program or in a program specialized in interpreting. They therefore suggest apositive answer to the research question.The linguistic specificity of the language pair involved and the methodological benefits of the triangular approach implemented in the study are discussed, and potential avenues for future research are suggested

Pesquisa descritivo-explicativa e exploratória sobre a relação entre Turismo e desenvolvimento regional que apresenta o modelo de análise APL Tur, elaborado com base em elementos de referenciais teóricos de economia, geografia, sociologia, administração, comunicação, antropologia e Turismo. O objetivo é mostrar se é possível realizar o desenvolvimento regional por meio do Turismo. Uma região é um contexto territorial delimitado por critérios geográficos, econômicos e políticos. Um dos modelos da análise e gestão do desenvolvimento regional é o Arranjo Produtivo Local APL, uma categoria especial de cluster. Em razão das limitações do APL, elabora-se o modelo particular de análise APL Tur Arranjo Produtivo Local de Turismo. O modelo APL Tur estrutura-se nas dimensões econômica, cultural e organizacional. Os elementos do desenvolvimento regional na dimensão econômica são: delimitação espacial; disparidades intra-regionais; externalidades; sustentabilidade ambiental; e inclusão social. Os elementos do Turismo circunscritos na dimensão econômica são: oferta e demanda; desempenho; priorização; exportação; circuito produtivo; interatividade extra-regional; e acessibilidade. Na dimensão cultural, destacam-se: aspectos históricos; acervos e incentivos; estética; produtos e atrativos; animação; e motivação e satisfação da comunidade. Na dimensão organizacional, têm-se os elementos: poder e capital social; gestão sistêmica; divulgação e imagem; mercadologia e comercialização; planejamento; empreendedorismo e inovação; e conhecimento. Realizou-se o teste do modelo APL Tur, aplicando-o à Região das Hortênsias (Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil), formada pelos municípios de Gramado, Canela, Nova Petrópolis e São Francisco de Paula. Com base no quadro de indicadores dos elementos das dimensões do modelo APL Tur, verifica-se que o Turismo contribui para o desenvolvimento regional, pois proporciona o ingresso, produção e distribuição de riquezas. Para que uma região se desenvolva economicamente por meio do Turismo, é preciso, entretanto, uma gestão adequada das dimensões e elementos do APL Tur, visando à realização dos seus indicadores. O modelo APL Tur é um instrumento adequado para diagnosticar e para identificar oportunidades de melhoria da atividade turística como polarizadora ou como alternativa do desenvolvimento regional.
This is a descriptive-explanatory and exploratory research about the relationship between Tourism and regional development that presents the LPS Tour analysis model and that was worked out taking its basis elements of theoretical references from economics, geography, sociology, administration, communication, anthropology and Tourism. The objective is to show if it is possible to accomplish regional development through Tourism. A region is a territorial context delimitated by geographical, economic, and political criteria. It is taken into consideration that the general model of Local Productive System of Tourism LPS, a especific cathegory of cluster, has limitations to the analysis and management of Tourism. For this reason, the LPS Tour Local Productive System of Tourism - particular model of analysis - is developed. The LPS model is structured in the economic, cultural, and organizational dimensions. The regional development elements in the economic dimension are: spatial delimitation; intra-regional dissimilarities; externalities; environmental sustainability; and social inclusion. The Tourism elements circumscribed in the economic dimension are: supply and demand; performance; prioritization; exportation; productive circuit; extra-regional interactivity; and accessibility. In the cultural dimension, the elements that stand out are: historical aspects; collections and incentives; esthetics; products and attractions; animation; and motivation and satisfaction of the community. In the organizational dimension, we have the following elements: power and stock capital; systemic management; divulgation and image; marketing and commercialization; planning; entrepreneurship and innovation; and knowledge. The test of the LPS Tour model was performed applying it to the Região das Hortênsias (Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil) (The Hydrangeas Region), that is formed by the municipal districts of Gramado, Canela, Nova Petrópolis, and São Francisco de Paula. Based on the panel of indicators of the dimensions elements of the LPS Tour model, it is possible to verify that Tourism contributes to the regional development because it accomplishes the ingression, production and distribution of richness. However, for a region to develop economically through Tourism, an adequate management of its dimensions and elements is necessary, aiming at the accomplishment of the LPS Tour indicators. The LPS Tour model is an adequate instrument to diagnose and to identify opportunities of improvement of the tourist activity, as a polarizer or as an alternative to regional development.

Abstract:

This research examines European Union (EU) policy instruments affecting the urban domain throughout the lenses of the Europeanization approach. Instead of looking at EU instruments that are formally/legally consecrated to cities, we use theoretical public policy analysis to explore the arenas and the causal mechanisms that structure the encounter between the EU and urban systems of governance. We develop the argument that there are four different modes of Europeanization. In consequence, to grasp the essence of a single instrument or a given EU initiative, one has to establish which mode is prevailing in the policy logic of that instrument or initiative. The core variables that explain change concern the status of actors’ preferences (a) and the payoffs from Europeanization (b). The combination of (a) and (b) thus originates a four dimensional space. We can therefore develop a typology for the modes of Europeanization, which chimes with current theorisations on the EU modes of governance. The eventual Europeanization of urban systems depends on the nature of strategic interaction, not on the legal ‘tools’ explicitly designated for cities. Thus, policy instruments are initially associated with the four modes. We then used process-tracing to verify whether instruments actually perform according to the ‘mode’ to which they have been initially paired, or if they trigger contingencies that have not been theoretically/deductively foreseen. This is particularly convenient within a realm – urban policies – where the EU does not have a specific formal competence and where interactions between ‘cities’ and the EU are likely to take place within multiple policy areas and during different stages of the policy process. Mechanisms are explored by considering the city of Turin. The four ‘policy instruments’ selected as proxies for the assessment of modes of Europeanization are the Covenant of Mayors programme for energy saving, directive 1994/62 (then waste framework directive) for waste management, directive 1993/30 for air quality control and the URBAN II Community Initiative for urban regeneration and development. The analysis of the four instruments reveals less variation between modes than initially expected. In this connection, theoretical similarity between modes, as emerged from the typological exercise carried out at the outset of the research, was partially echoed by the empirical analysis of policy instruments. Within cities and urban areas, the Europeanization effect is likely to assume a more blurred fashion and the action of, and reaction to, Europe is greatly interwoven with other dynamics, which in turn shape the perception and the actual impact of European modes and instruments for regulation. In the conclusions we highlight the differences between this approach and the traditional analysis of EU urban policy, and suggest avenues for future empirical research based on typologies of policy instruments.

Abstract:

According to the Conventions on the Rights of the Child, children have the right to make their voices heard and express their opinion in situations concerning them. With this paper the authors have chosen to explore social worker’s view’s on children’s participation and influence, and how these are manifested through the entire case process. The focus in this study has also been the positive and negative effects the children’s influence may have. To investigate this, a qualitative study using semi-structured interviews has been conducted. The interviews of social workers has shown that children have influence, but the extent may vary due to various factors. There are different perceptions of what participation and influence really relate, something that both the interviewed social workers and previous research has pointed out. In doing so, it may be of great importance that social workers continue to talk about children's influence, as well as developing new and more effective methods to make children more involved and give them more influence. This is especially important because of the devastating effects it can have when children are excluded from the decision-making.

O Turismo configura-se como uma atividade que apresenta constante movimento podendo impulsionar o desenvolvimento local nas esferas econ?mica, sociocultural e humana em localidades com potencial e estrutura??o para tal. Por ser uma atividade din?mica, o turismo permite mudan?as em seu fluxo, ampliando os per?odos de sazonalidade. Para tanto, tendo em vista a dinamicidade citada, torna-se relevante a presen?a do planejamento tur?stico, inicialmente partindo do poder p?blico para que este crie leis e elabore normas e projetos para a gest?o da atividade de forma ordenada, visando a participa??o cidad?, tornando imprescind?vel a presen?a dos atores e agentes do turismo local no processo, ampliando a democracia e o conhecimento de seu lugar de origem. Neste cen?rio, o Minist?rio do Turismo desponta com o Plano Nacional de turismo que incorpora entre suas a??es o Programa de Regionaliza??o do Turismo, adotando um modelo de gest?o regional local, de forma participativa, atrav?s das inst?ncias de governan?a institu?das nos polos, sendo as a??es da pol?tica p?blica em suas diferentes inst?ncias os maiores respons?veis pelo fomento do turismo no polo Serid?. O presente trabalho cient?fico se prop?e a analisar o polo Serid?, sob a teoria do Ciclo de Vida de ?reas Tur?sticas (TALC) proposta por BUTLER (1980), localizando as a??es voltadas para o turismo e a cronologia da atividade aplicada ? localidade no processo proposto. Para tanto a metodologia utilizada foi a descritivo-explorat?ria, de abordagem qualitativa, de n?vel hist?rico e narrativo, de amostragem n?o-probabil?stica, utilizando fontes secund?rias, atrav?s de documentos e demais registros ocorridos durante os processos de planejamento na regi?o, assim como fontes prim?rias, atrav?s de entrevista estruturada aplicada ? gestora p?blica do PNMT e PRT no Estado do RN, no intuito de ter acesso ?s informa??es relacionadas ao processo de planejamento da atividade tur?stica no Serid?. Utilizou-se como forma de investiga??o dos dados coletados a t?cnica de an?lise do conte?do. Como conclus?o deste estudo observa-se que a partir do levantamento feito em rela??o ao hist?rico do turismo na regi?o que as atividades econ?micas da pecu?ria, cotonicultura, minera??o e ind?stria ceramista foram respons?veis pela inicia??o do turismo na localidade atrav?s do fluxo direcionado ?s mesmas, da inser??o dos primeiros hot?is e da realiza??o de eventos tradicionais, dando margem ? demanda por pol?ticas p?blicas que auxiliassem no direcionamento da atividade estando por isso, inserida na fase de envolvimento, segunda fase do modelo proposto por Buttler (1980), sendo o estudo finalizado com sugest?es para a continuidade da atividade tur?stica na regi?o.
Tourism is configured as an activity that presents constant movement could boost local development in the economic, sociocultural and human in locations with potential for structuring and such. Because it is a dynamic activity, tourism allows changes in its flow, extending the periods of seasonality. To this end, in view of the aforementioned dynamics, it becomes relevant to the presence of tourism planning, initially starting from the government so that it create laws and standards and develop projects for the management of activities in an orderly way, seeking citizen participation, making essential the presence of actors and agents in local tourism, expanding democracy and knowledge of their place of origin. In this scenario, the Ministry of Tourism is emerging with the National Tourism Plan which incorporates among its actions, the Regionalization Program Guide, adopting a model of regional local management, a participatory manner, through the bodies of governance imposed at the poles, and the shares of public policy in their various departments most responsible for promoting tourism in pole Serid?. This scientific work aims to analyze the pole Serid?, under the theory of tourism area life cycle (TALC) proposed by BUTLER (1980), locating actions for tourism and chronology of the locality applied the proposed process activity. For both the methodology is descriptive and exploratory, qualitative approach, historical, descriptive and narrative level, non-probability sampling, using secondary sources, through documents and other records occurred during the planning processes in the region, in order to have access to information related to the planning process of tourism in Serid?, using as a way to research the data collected the technique of content analysis. As a conclusion of this study it is observed that from the survey in relation to the history of tourism in the region, economic activities of livestock, cotton industry, mining and ceramics industry were responsible for the initiation of tourism in the locality through the flow directed to the same, the insertion of the first hotels and performing traditional events, giving rise to the demand for public policies that aided in directing the activity being, therefore, inserted into the engagement phase, the second phase proposed by BUTLER (1980) model, and the study was terminated with suggestions for the continuation of tourism in the region.

Abstract:

This diploma thesis deals with the creation of a computation driver model. In the first part, there is an overview on driver models for longitudinal and lateral control. Next, driving maneuvres that could be selected for testing of driver model are described. In the practical part, there is created a computational driver model, whose task is to follow required path. The resulting model is tested on three driving maneuvers - steady turning, moose test and slalom. Finally, this model is tested on the passage of a real track. For all these tracks, a comparison is made and the success of the model is evaluated.

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management, 2013.
Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 104-116).
The growth acceleration episodes characterizing Botswana and Equatorial Guinea were based on the respective discoveries of diamonds and oil. However, while Botswana, already characterized by inclusive and democratic institutions, succeeded in transferring much of the benefits deriving from the natural resource to society, Equatorial Guinea's corrupt government retained all the oil-generated wealth and prevented the population's standard of living from improving at a pace proportional to the country's growth. The two countries also differ in terms of their vulnerability to the "resource curse" phenomenon, due to their unequal level of economic diversification both within the major natural resource sector and across several industries. This Thesis firstly adopts a deep analytical approach to compare the two countries' development records and to understand the discrepancy in the quality of the two growth acceleration episodes. The second main contribution of this study consists in the analysis of the potential benefits resulting from the implementation of Public-Private Partnerships in the developing world. The methodology applied in the last section derives from Game Theory, a branch of Economics increasingly adopted in applications to real-world circumstances. In this specific case, the results of this coordination exercise between public and private parties will present very different implications for a democratic country as Botswana and for a corrupt one as Equatorial Guinea.

Abstract:

Es planteja la fonamentació d'un model integrat de formació humana, desenvolupament i intervenció organitzacional en un context pedagògic socioeducatiu. S'explicita un nucli d'intel·ligibilitat epistemològic, (Gergen, 1996) i es desenvolupen els seus continguts metateòrics, teòrics i metodològics Per a situar el model en una perspectiva metateòrica constructivista i construccionista social, s'examinen dos canvis considerats rellevants en les explicacions epistemològiques de la ciència que donen suport a aquesta perspectiva: el gir lingüístic i el que els biòlegs biocibernètics de la modernitat anomenen gir ontològic. Aquests fonaments científics del constructivisme, es recullen en el disseny del model que es fa càrrec de tres explicacions plantejades per aquests girs així com de les seves conseqüències.

El disseny del model assumeix aquestes distincions i estableix un creuament amb els desenvolupaments post-analítics del gir lingüístic en la comprensió performativa del llenguatge, per a la concepció de l'organització com una xarxa de converses. Assumeix el caràcter emergent de la conducta lingüística en l'acoblament amb el medi. aquest acoblament estructural s'entén enactivament mitjançant l'ús recursiu del llenguatge, per a generar compromisos vers un aprenentatge que integri les persones al sistema.

El disseny reencuadra la investigació-acció utilitzant eines de cibernètica de primer ordre en una cibernètica de segon ordre, mitjançant converses recurrents per articular les metes de l'organització amb l'espai relacional. Incorpora metodologies de primera persona performatives i comunicacionals com eines per integrar la dimensió dels valors d'un mateix amb les metes de l'organització amb l'objectiu de reproduir-la mitjançant la integració social. Opera mitjançant el treball en grup per tal que les converses es situïn en la segona persona, (jo-altres), per tal de possibilitar l'emergència de la primera persona.

Assumeix la distinció de les dues dimensiones del ésser cognitiu (Varela 2000): una d'enllaç mitjançant el llenguatge per la coderiva del sistema amb el medi, i una dimensió d'excedent de significació, és a dir, d'interpretació per a la reformulació de la experiència en el llenguatge (narrativa), que conservi aquest acoblament amb el medi.

Per tal de reduir les pertorbacions que provoca el trencament de l'acoblament emergeix la interpretació com l'alternativa per a generar possibilitats d'acció; passar d'un estat present amb trencaments per fer emergir un estat desitjat com a futur viable. En aquesta escletxa que s'obre en l'espai relacional entre l'estat present i l'estat desitjat pren sentit l'ús d'aquestes eines de conversa per a accedir a un rerefons amb mirada compartida. L'estat desitjat acoblat al llenguatge opera com un feed-forward positiu per a la construcció de sentit. S'ajuda a més d'una visió binocular del canvi, analitzant dos series categorials de pensament en la modernitat.

Finalment es descriu l'aplicació i els resultats del Model en una organització de serveis de salut.
Se plantea la fundamentación de un modelo integrado de formación humana, capacitación e intervención organizacional en un contexto pedagógico socio educativo. Explicita un núcleo de inteligibilidad epistemológico, (Gergen, 1996) desarrollando sus contenidos metateoricos, teóricos y metodológico Para situar el modelo en una perspectiva metateórico constructivista y construccionista social, se examinan dos cambios considerados relevantes en las explicaciones epistemológicas de la ciencia que dan sustento a esta perspectiva: el giro lingüístico y el llamado por los biólogos biocibernéticos giro ontológico de la modernidad. Estos fundamentos científicos del constructivismo contenidos en este último, se recogen en el diseño del modelo, que se hace cargo de tres explicaciones que dejan planteadas este giro y de las consecuencias que de ellas surgen para su formalización.-

El diseño del modelo asume estas distinciones y realiza un cruce con los desarrollos post analíticos del giro lingüístico en la comprensión performativa del lenguaje, para la concepción de la organización como una red de conversaciones. Asume el carácter emergente de la conducta lingüística en el acoplamiento con el medio. Este acoplamiento estructural se entiende enactivamente mediante el uso recursivo del lenguaje, para generar compromisos para un aprendizaje que integre las personas al sistema.

El diseño es un Modelo autopoiético que metodológicamente reencuadra la investigación-acción usando herramientas de cibernética de primer orden en una cibernética de segundo orden, mediante conversaciones recurrentes para articular las metas de la organización con el espacio relacional. Incorpora metodologías de primera persona performativas comunicacionales como herramientas para integrar la dimensión valórica del si mismo con las metas de la organización, para reproducirla mediante integración social. Opera mediante trabajo grupal para que las conversaciones se sitúen en la segunda persona, (yo-otros), para posibilitar la emergencia de la primera persona.

Asume la distinción de las dos dimensiones del ser cognitivo (Varela 2000), una de enlace mediante el lenguaje para la coderiva del sistema con el medio, y una dimensión de excedente de significación, esto es, de interpretación para la reformulación de la experiencia en el lenguaje (narrativa), que conserve ese acoplamiento con el medio.

Para reducir las perturbaciones que provocan el quiebre del acoplamiento emerge la interpretación como la alternativa para generar posibilidades de acción, pasar de un estado presente con quiebres para hacer emerger un estado deseado como futuro viable. En esa brecha que se abre en el espacio relacional entre el estado presente y el estado deseado hace sentido el uso de estas herramientas conversacionales para acceder a un trasfondo con mirada compartida. El estado deseado acoplado al lenguaje opera como un feed forward positivo para la construcción de sentido. Se apoya para ello, además, en una visión binocular del cambio, analizando dos series categoriales de pensamiento en la modernidad.

Finalmente se describe la aplicación y resultados del Modelo en una organización de servicios de salud.
The foundation for an integrated model of human formation, training and organizational intervention within a socio-educational pedagogic context is presented here. It explicits an epistemological intelligibility core (Gergen, 1996) developing its theoretical, metatheoretical and methodological contents. To place the model into a metatheoretical social constructivism and social constructionist perspective, two relevant considered shifts in epistemological explanations of science that supports this perspective are reviewed: the linguistic turn and the so called by biocybernetical biologists ontological turn of modernity. These scientific foundations of constructivism contained in this turn, are brought into the model design that takes charge of three explanations put forward by the turn and the consequences arising from them for its formalization.

The design of the model assumes these distinctions and performs a crossing with the post analytical developments of the linguistic turn in the performative comprehension of language, for conceiving the organization as a network of conversations. It assumes the emerging character of linguistic behavior in coupling to the environment. This structural coupling is enactively understood through the recursive use of language, to generate commitments for a learning that integrates persons to the system.

The design is an autopoietical model that methodologically reframes research-action using tools of first order cybernetics within a second order cybernetics, through recurrent conversations to articulate organization's goals with the relational space. It incorporates communicational first person performative methodologies as tools to integrate the valoric dimension of the self with the organization's goals, to reproduce it through social integration. It operates through group work placing conversations in second person (I - others), for making the emergence of the first person possible.

It assumes the distinction of the two dimensions of the cognitive being (Varela, 2000), one as a link of language for the co-derive of the system with the environment and one as signification surplus, that is, of interpretation for the reformulation of the experience in language (narrative), that keep that coupling with the environment.

Interpretation emerges as the alternative for generating action possibilities to reduce perturbations that provoke the breaking of coupling, to go through a present state with breakings to an emergent wished state as a viable future. In this breach opened in the relational space between the present state and the wished state the use of these conversational tools makes sense to access a background with shared vision. The wished state coupled to language operates as a positive feed forward for constructing meaning. It also supports itself on a binocular vision of change, analyzing two categorical series of thought in modernity.

Finally, the application and results of the model are described within a health services organization.
