A Function Space Perspective on Stochastic Shape Evolution
Modelling randomness in shape data, for example, the evolution of shapes of organisms in biology, requires stochastic models of shapes. This paper... -
Quantum Stochastic Processes and the Modelling of Quantum Noise
This brief entry gives an overview of quantum mechanics as a quantum probability theory. It begins with a review of the basic operator-algebraic... -
Impact of window and air-conditioner operation behaviour on cooling load in high-rise residential buildings
Space cooling is an important building energy end-use that was found in recent years to be significantly impacted by occupant behaviours. However,...

An Approach to Simulate Malware Propagation in the Internet of Drones
This research addresses the problem of malicious code propagation in a swarm of drones. Its main objective is to establish the conceptual basis and... -
Empirical Evidence and Mathematical Modelling of Carbamazepine Degradative Kinetics by a Wood-Rotting Microbial Consortium
AbstractAn experimental evolution system with a wood-rotting microbial consortium (BOS08) has demonstrated the acquisition of a new ability to...

Communicating Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes
In this chapter we introduce the automata framework CPDP, which stands for Communicating Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes. CPDP is developed... -
Stochastic Based Part of Speech Tagging in Mizo Language: Unigram and Bigram Hidden Markov Model
The process of assigning words in a corpus to the corresponding specified tags based on the context and its definition is part of speech (POS)... -
MBSE-Based Design Space Exploration for Productivity Improvement Using Workflow Models
During systems design, systems engineers would like to reason about systems feasibility as early in the process as possible. In this chapter, we... -
Compositional Specification of a Multi-agent System by Stochastically and Dynamically Coloured Petri Nets
For safety-critical operations in the nuclear and chemical industries, Petri nets have proven to be useful for the compositional specification of... -
Robust Linear Programming Application for the Production Planning Problem
Companies that use Production-Planning-based methods and tools, such as MRP, MRPII or ERP, face difficulties while dealing with stochastics scenarios... -
Quantum Stochastic Processes and the Modelling of Quantum Noise
This brief entry gives an overview of quantum mechanics as a quantum probability theory. It begins with a review of the basic operator-algebraic... -
Industry 4.0 Technologies for the Sustainable Management of Maintenance Resources

Biomathematical Modeling in a Fuzzy Environment
This chapter looks at the influence of the environment in a population as a whole, that is, it looks at processes in which the environment affects... -
Hybrid Petri Nets with Diffusion That Have Into-Map**s with Generalised Stochastic Hybrid Processes
Generalised Stochastic Hybrid Processes (GSHPs) are known as the largest class of Markov processes virtually describing all continuous-time processes... -
Thoughts on System Identification
It is a pleasure to dedicate this Festschrift article to Keith Glover on the occasion of his 60-th birthday. Keith came to MIT in 1969, armed with a...
