Modelling orchestration
Modern cloud services operate at significant and increasing scale. The growth of these services has led to the need for automated management to keep them operational across many thousands of nodes and multiple geo-distributed sites. Orchestrators are the platforms designed to automate this …

Combining mechanistic modelling with data-driven modelling in mathematical oncology
Mathematical modelling in cancer research has been developing and has contributed valuable insights. By helping to understand the mechanisms of biological processes and predict clinical outcomes, mathematical models can complement empirical cancer research. In chapter 2, we studied the dynamics by …

Dynamic Electroporation Modelling
In this thesis, modelling and simulation of the effects of electric fields on a single spherical cell are undertaken. Of interest is the effect that different electric field waveforms have on the induced transmembrane potential of the cell and by consequence the electropermeabilization of the cell …

Modelling Β2Ar Regulation
<p>The β2 adrenergic receptor (β2AR) regulates smooth muscle relaxation in the vasculature and airways. Long- and Short-acting β-agonists (LABAs/SABAs) are widely used in treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) and asthma. Despite their widespread clinical use we do not …

Modelling arithmetic strategies
This thesis examines children's arithmetic strategies and their relation to the concepts of commutativity and associativity. Two complementary methods were used in this research: empirical studies and computational models.<br></br><br></br>Empirical studies were carried out to identify the …

Modelling multivalent interactons
A Multivalent entity, which could represent a protein, nanoparticle, polymer, virus or a lipid bilayer, has the ability to form multiple bonds to a substrate. Hence, a multivalent interaction can be strong, even if the individual bonds are weak. However, much more interestingly, multivalency …

Modelling Metaphorical Extension
Humans have an uncanny ability to push the semantics of words beyond their boundaries. This ability manifests itself clearly when people extend words metaphorically. Computational models of metaphorical extension are rare, in large part due to limitations with the methodology that is currently used …

Modelling mechanical systems
Education should be one of the highest priorities of any country. The ability to pass on knowledge and understanding effectively is a sign of a good educational system. From an engineering perspective, better teaching tools allow for greater understanding by the students making them better …

MODELLING CELL POPULATION GROWTH
The growth of biological matter, e.g., tumor invasion, depends on various factors, mainly the tissue’s mechanical properties, implying elasticity, stiffness, or apparent viscosity. These properties are impacted by the characteristics of the tissue’s extracellular matrix and constituent cells, …

HIERARCHICAL-GRANULARITY HOLONIC MODELLING
… approach, named Hierarchical-Granularity Holonic Modelling, to support intelligent information processing at multiple granularity levels. The focus is especially on complex hierarchical systems. Nowadays, due to ever growing complexity of information systems and processes, there is an increasing …

Vehicle Traction Battery Modelling
… the theoretical knowledge framework and battery modelling method on the software MATLAB/Simulink from the battery cell level up to the pack level architecture, after modelling the battery pack, the constant current at different C-rates is performed on the model to validate its behaviour against …

Modelling Group Recommender Systems
In this thesis, the goal is to systematically study how to model group for recommender systems with different kinds of auxiliary group information. 1) Social-aware recommendation approaches assume that the knowledge in social user-user connections can be shared and transferred to the domain of …

Modelling building heating requirements.
This thesis describes the development of a mathematical model for the assessment of building heating requirements. The model has been incorporated into a FORTRAN computer program, ENMAN, which allows the rapid production of tabular and graphical comparisons between actual monthly fuel consumption …

Modelling manufacturing systems flexibility.
The flexl.bility to change product and processes quickly and economically represents a significant competitive advantage to manufacturing organisations. The rapid rise in global sourcing, has resulted in manufacturers having to offer greater levels of customisation, thus a wider product range is …

Modelling medical diagnostic processes
… of medical reasoning processes and how student modelling of such processes can be achieved in intelligent tutoring systems. The domain of orthopaedics was chosen for the research. Literature has shown that medical reasoning has been modelled mainly from an expert point of view. The research …
