A discussion of Basel II and operational risk in context of risk perspectives
(Conference object, 2014-03)The Basel II Capital Accord, established in 2007, provides guidelines on management of operational risk including requirements for regulatory capital. In the quantitative analysis of operational risk the guidelines require ... -
Activity-Oriented Petri Net for scheduling of resources
(Conference object, 2012-10)This work presents a new methodology for modeling discrete systems in which activities compete for resources. The new methodology known as Activity-Oriented Petri Net (AOPN) allows modelers to concentrate on modeling ... -
Building Performance Simulation of MyBox Energy Lab in Norway: Integrating the Human Dimension in Energy Use Analysis
(Conference object, 2024)The MyBox energy lab at the University of Stavanger presents an innovative integration of living and research spaces housed within six repurposed shipping containers, where energy consumption data has been logged hourly ... -
Cost-effective Data Upkeep in Decentralized Storage Systems
(Conference object; Journal article, 2023)Decentralized storage systems split files into chunks and distribute the chunks across a network of peers. Each peer may only store a few chunks per file. To later reconstruct a file, all its chunks must be downloaded. ... -
Detection and localization of melanoma skin cancer in histopathological whole slide images
(European Signal Processing Conference;, Chapter; Conference object, 2023)If melanoma is diagnosed and treated in its early stages can increase the survival rate. A projected increase in skin cancer incidents and a shortage of dermatopathologists have emphasized the need for computational pathology ... -
Facing suffering and death : Alternative therapy as post-secular religious practice
(Scripta Instituti Donneriani Aboensis;24, Conference object, 2012) -
Is Norway an information society?
(Conference object, 2010)Information Society can be loosely defined as a society integrated by complex communication networks that rapidly develop and exchange information. Information society is becoming an earthly phenomenon and the goal of every ... -
A multiple-source air quality control model achieving a standard, defined by a vector-valued function
(Conference object, 2009-07)Earlier papers by Gustafson, Kortanek, Sweigart and others describe models for controlling air pollution, consisting of chemically inert pollutants like sulphur dioxide. It was assumed that the concentration contributions ... -
Partial search vector selection for sparse signal representation
(Conference object, 2003)In this paper a new algorithm for vector selection in signal representation problems is proposed, we call it space is searched. Partial Search (PS). The vector selection problem is described, and one group of algorithms ... -
Representing Resources in Petri Net Models: Hardwiring or Soft-coding?
(Conference object, 2011)This paper presents an interesting design problem in developing a new tool for discrete-event dynamic systems (DEDS). A new tool known as GPenSIM was developed for modeling and simulation of DEDS; GPenSIM is based on Petri ... -
Revisiting Petri Net Modeling of the Cigarette Smokers' Problem: A GPenSIM Approach
(Conference object, 2013-11)Petri Nets is a family of modeling formalisms, with different interpretations and abstraction levels; the Petri nets family of modeling formalisms includes ordinary Petri Net, generalized Petri Net, and also all other ... -
Risk perception in health care : a study of differences across organizational interfaces
(ESREL;2011, Conference object, 2012) -
Security risk management in Norwegian aviation meets nordic traditions of risk management
(Conference object, 2012)The risk management systems in the Norwegian aviation sector in the aftermath of 9/11 have been a top down process characterised by rapidity and secrecy and there has been little local and national risk assessment involved ... -
Texture classification using sparse frame based representations
(Conference object, 2008)In this paper a new method for texture classification, denoted Frame Texture Classification Method (FTCM), is presented. The main idea is that a frame trained to make a sparse representation of a certain class of signals ...
