Size-Based Routing Policies: Non-Asymptotic Analysis and Design of Decentralized Systems
(MDPI, 2021-04-12)Size-based routing policies are known to perform well when the variance of the distribution of the job size is very high. We consider two size-based policies in this paper: Task Assignment with Guessing Size (TAGS) and ... -
Slot-Die Process of a Sol–Gel Photocatalytic Porous Coating for Large-Area Fabrication of Functional Architectural Glass
(MDPI, 2021-06-06)The slot-die process is an appealing technology for the fabrication of coatings on large-area substrates. However, its application on the production of photocatalytic coatings based on sol–gel formulations remains virtually ... -
Social connectivity and adaptive capacity strategies in large-scale fisheries
(Ecology and Society, 2021-01-01)Large-scale fisheries are important social-ecological systems that are increasingly being threatened by global climate change. Adaptive capacity is key for moving fisheries onto climate resilient pathways, however, ... -
Social equity shapes zone-selection: Balancing aquatic biodiversity conservation and ecosystem services delivery in the transboundaryDanube River Basin
(Elsevier, 2019)Freshwater biodiversity is declining, despite national and international efforts to manage and protect freshwater ecosystems. Ecosystem-based management (EBM) has been proposed as an approach that could more efficiently ... -
Social networks influence farming practices and agrarian sustainability
(PLoS ONE, 2021-01-07)The social-ecological effects of agricultural intensification are complex. We explore farmers perceptions about the impacts of their land management and the impact of social information flows on their management through ... -
Solidaric solarities: Governance principles for transforming solar power relations
(Progress in Environmental Geography, 2023-07-31)Solar energy has become the world's cheapest and fastest scaling electricity source. Multiple societal sectors are electrifying, and the scale and pace of change give some hope of near-future rapid climate mitigation through ... -
Solid–Solid Crystal Transitions (δ to α) in Poly(hexamethylene carbonate) and Poly(octamethylene carbonate)
(ACS, 2021-07-21)Poly (hexamethylene carbonate) (PC6) and poly (octamethylene carbonate) (PC8) were studied under different crystallization conditions. Using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), a new solid-solid transition, denoted α ... -
Sorption enhanced ethanol steam reforming on a bifunctional Ni/CaO catalyst for H-2 production
(Elsevier, 2021-12)[EN]The activity and stability of a 10 wt%NiO/CaO catalyst were tested in the sorption enhanced ethanol steam reforming (SEESR) in a fluidized bed reactor. The effect of temperature in the 600-750 degrees C range was ... -
Southward re-distribution of tropical tuna fisheries activity can be explained by technological and management change
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)There is broad evidence of climate change causing shifts in fish distribution worldwide, but less is known about the response of fisheries to these changes. Responses to climate-driven shifts in a fishery may be constrained ... -
Spatial variability of soil respiration (R<inf>s</inf>) and its controls are subjected to strong seasonality in an even-aged European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) stand
(European Journal of Soil Science, 2021-09-01)Uncertainties arising from the so-far poorly explained spatial variability of soil respiration (Rs) remain large. This is partly due to the limited understanding about how spatially variable Rs actually is, but also on how ... -
Spatially explicit species distribution models: A missed opportunity in conservation planning?
(John Wiley and Sons, 2019)Aim: Systematic conservation planning is vital for allocating protected areas given the spatial distribution of conservation features, such as species. Due to incomplete species inventories, species distribution models ... -
Species richness influences the spatial distribution of trees in European forests
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2020)The functioning of plant communities is strongly influenced by the number of species in the community and their spatial arrangement. This is because plants interact with their nearest neighbors and this interaction is ... -
Specific Hippocampal Interneurons Shape Consolidation of Recognition Memory
(Cell Press, 2020-08-18)A complex array of inhibitory interneurons tightly controls hippocampal activity, but how such diversity specifically affects memory processes is not well understood. We find that a small subclass of type 1 cannabinoid ... -

Speech emotion recognition in Spanish TV Debates
(ISCA, 2022)Emotion recognition from speech is an active field of study that can help build more natural human-machine interaction systems. Even though the advancement of deep learning technology has brought improvements in this task, ... -
Speeding up quantum perceptron via shortcuts to adiabaticity
(Springer Nature, 2021-03-11)The quantum perceptron is a fundamental building block for quantum machine learning. This is a multidisciplinary field that incorporates abilities of quantum computing, such as state superposition and entanglement, to ... -
Spinal circuits can accommodate interaction torques during multijoint limb movements
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-11-11)The dynamic interaction of limb segments during movements that involve multiple joints creates torques in one joint due to motion about another. Evidence shows that such interaction torques are taken into account during ... -
Spontaneous Zero-Field Cooling Exchange Bias in Ni–Co–Mn–Sn Metamagnetic Heusler Sputtered Film
(MDPI, 2021-08-26)Metamagnetic off-stoichiometric Heusler alloys are actively being investigated because of their great potential as magnetocaloric materials. These properties are intimately related to the nanoscale homogeneity of their ... -
