A theory of agreements and protection
… a theory of contracts. Contracts are modelled as interacting processes with an explicit association of obligations and objectives. Obligations are specified using event structures. In this model we formalise two fundamental notions of contracts, namely agreement and protection. These notions arise …

Wie können deutsche familienkontrollierte Hidden Champions des B2B-Sektors ihre digitale Transformationsstrategie so gestalten, dass ein unternehmerischer Erfolg resultiert? Entwurf eines review-basierten und empirisch konkretisierten Modells
… digital transformation. Digital transformation processes are based on the interaction of acting-people-related and technology-related aspects and promise technical, informational, and economic opportunities for businesses. A model based on the review insights describes the impact of success …

Using applied palaeoecology and participatory system dynamics modelling to investigate changes in ecosystem services in response to climate and social-ecological drivers within the middle berg river catchment, South Africa
… approach is needed to understand the interacting processes that drive the dynamics of ecosystem service provision. This study applies a conceptual meta-framework: past-present-future lens of environmental change to interpret changes in land cover and ecosystem services, with the aim of …

Towards applied modeling of the human-eco-system an approach of hydrology based integrated modeling of a semi-arid sub-catchment in rural north-west India
… exists, we fail in due reproduction of complexly interacting processes in their effective scale in the space-time-continuum, as they are described through deterministic small-scale process theories (e.g. Beven 2002). Yet large amounts of parameters - with partly doubtful physical expression - and …

Multi-scale Transmission Ecology: How Individual Host Characteristics, Host Population Density, and Community Structure Influence Transmission in a Multi-host Snail Symbiont System
… or study, because it is actually a series of interacting processes influenced by abiotic and biotic factors at multiple scales, and thus empirical tests of the transmission function within epidemiological models are rare. Therefore, in this dissertation, I explore factors at the individual, …

Coastal Overwash: Processes and Modelling
… there remains a large scope to describe overwash processes, overwash hydrodynamics and to develop models for predicting the magnitude and shape of washover deposits on the back barrier. The objective of this study was to improve the capability to predict sediment transport caused by overwash, and …

Improved dynamics modelling for drainage sediment prediction and management
… of this investigation, focussing on sediment processes in sewer pipes and sediment traps. The data collected included, suspended and near bed transport rates, long-term sediment bed development and sediment trap filling patterns. These data and previous data sets were then used in the …

Population Viability Analysis of Swift fox (Vulpes velox) at the Badlands National Park
… crude estimations obtained from data on diverse interacting processes that are too complex to be integrated intuitively. Thus, the outcomes of this PVA should be considered an attempt to identify the factors affecting the persistence of the reintroduced population rather than using it to estimate …

Reality Resists Classification: A Transdiagnostic, Network-Based Approach to Behavioural and Neural Variation in Childhood
… is shaped, and characterised, by a variety of interacting processes that encompass biological and environmental phenomena. Key developmental outcomes, such as cognitive ability and behaviour, are closely associated with the structure and function of the brain. These features of neurobiology are …
