When Physics Became Undisciplined An Essay on Econophysics
… is better seen as the re-emergence of a 1960s research programme initiated in economics. Chapter 2 is historical: it identifies the key role played by the Santa Fe Institute and its pioneering complexity research in the shaping of methodological horizons of econophysics. These are in turn …

The Evolving Project Management Office as a Tacit to Explicit Knowledge Broker
… knowledge as encountered in projects of varying complexity. Research shows that project-based organizations with PMOs have a better handle on knowledge flows and better able to handle the unexpected situations. PMO’s act as knowledge brokers with the aim to make tacit knowledge reusable, …

Combined forward error correction and error concealment for digital video transmission
… of the proposed schemes and to assess their complexity. Research results indicate that the proposed strategy outperforms the traditional ML decoding technique for the same FEC code in use, especially at the high channel bit error rates (BER). Simulation results are in a good agreement with …

Project complexity and how to effectively measure complexity in projects: the case of a refuelling outage in a nuclear power generating plant
… the rule rather than an exception these days. Research shows that one of the reasons for project failure is the increasing complexity of projects or an underestimation of the project complexity. There is therefore a fundamental need to develop a tool or model that will assist project managers …

Design for Learning Through a Complexity Perspective: A Board Game Redesign Approach to Enabling Learning Possibilities
… ways of supporting it. Drawing on insights from complexity research, particularly the notion of enabling constraints (Davis & Simmt, 2003), I explored the settings for supporting learners’ agency in pursuing their ideas and interests, while stimulating new possibilities of collective …

Computational lyricology: Quantitative approaches to understanding song lyrics and their interpretations
Recently, music complexity has drawn attention from researchers in the Music Information Retrieval (MIR) area. In particular, computational methods to measure music complexity have been studied to provide better music services in large-scale music digital libraries. However, the majority of music …

Isolation and Characterisation of Yeasts with Biotechnological Properties
The primary aim of this research was to identify and characterise novel non-Saccharomyces species from a vineyard and assess their potential use as starter cultures, either as an alternative or complement to Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The first step towards this aim was to access the vast potential …
