Brodie, Lindsey. "Impact estimation : IT priority decisions." Thesis, Middlesex University, 2015. http://eprints.mdx.ac.uk/18408/.

Full text

Abstract:

Given resource constraints, prioritization is a fundamental process within systems engineering to decide what to implement. However, there is little guidance about this process and existing IT prioritization methods have several problems, including failing to adequately cater for stakeholder value. In response to these issues, this research proposes an extension to an existing prioritization method, Impact Estimation (IE) to create Value Impact Estimation (VIE). VIE extends IE to cater for multiple stakeholder viewpoints and to move towards better capture of explicit stakeholder value. The use

This thesis focuses on two closely related areas of liquidity and market impact. The historic limit order book of Stock Exchange Trading Sys- tem (SETS) operated by the London Stock Exchange (LSE) is rebuilt using this framework for empirical analysis of information contained in the limit order book. The concept of Notional Volume Weighted Average Price (NVWAP) is introduced to construct liquidity supply and demand curves based on real time bid and ask schedules of the full length of the limit or- der book.

Abstract:

The literature is clear that intentional or unintentional clustering of data elements typically results in the inflation of the estimated standard error of fixed parameter estimates. This study is unique in that it examines the impact of multilevel data structures on subject ability which are random effect predictions known as empirical Bayes estimates in the one-parameter IRT / Rasch model. The literature on the impact of complex survey design on latent trait models is mixed and there is no "best practice" established regarding how to handle this situation. A simulation study was conducted

Abstract:

The rapid growth in wireless communications has given rise to an increasing demand for channel capacity using limited bandwidth. Wireless channels vary over time due to fading and changing interference conditions. Typical wireless systems are designed by choosing a modulation scheme to meet worst case conditions and thus rely on power control to adapt to changing channel conditions. Adaptive modulation, however, exploits these channel variations to improve the spectral efficiency of wireless communications by intelligently changing the modulation scheme based on channel conditions.

Abstract:

<p>Space Time Trellis Coding (STTC) is a unique technique that combines the use of multiple transmit antennas with channel coding. This scheme provides capacity benefits in fading channels, and helps in improving the data rate and reliability of wireless communication. STTC schemes have been primarily designed assuming perfect channel estimates to be available at the receiver. However, in practical wireless systems, this is never the case. The noisy wireless channel precludes an exact characterization of channel coefficients. Even near-perfect channel estimates can necessitate huge overhead in

Abstract:

This thesis examines the ground motion prediction component of earthquake loss estimation (ELE) frameworks and is based on the assertion that reducing the uncertainty in ground motion prediction will result in improved accuracy of loss estimates. The objective is to obtain improved ground motion predictions by identifying and quantifying the sources of uncertainty in the predictions, with particular focus on the portion of the uncertainty that can be reduced. The work presented in this thesis starts with an examination of ground motion measures commonly used in ELE and their relative utility.

In this study, we employed a two-stage backpropagation neural network (NNW) to estimate the impact parameter (b) of heavy-ion collisions. Using Monte-Carlo (MC) generated Pb-Pb events at 160 GeV/nucleon we employed three observables from each event to train the NNW. The generated events were target-projectile in nature, from which the charged pion multiplicity (MULT), largest spectator fragment (ZMAX) and charge flow in the forward direction (sz) were used as input signals for the NNW. A statistical approach that employed the weighted mean of the three inputs to estimate b was used as

In this work we analyze the impact of choosing different combinations of NIRCam and MIRI broadband filters (F070W to F770W), as well as having ancillary data at lambda < 0.6 mu m, on the derived photometric redshifts (z(phot)) of a total of 5921 real and simulated galaxies, with known input redshifts z = 0-10.

Abstract:

The transient dynamic analysis of constrained mechanical systems may require the solution of a mixed set of algebraic and differential equations of motion. The usual formulation of these equations is expressed in terms of the accelerations of the system components. A canonical form of the equations of motion in terms of the system velocities and the time derivative of the system momenta may be used instead. This is a natural form of the equations in which all the state variables are explicitly expressed, and have the same physical importance. The numerical solution obtained from the canonical

Accurate ore estimation processes are of crucial importance in the mining scenario.

Preliminary data analysis demonstrates the need to perform a subsequent variogram modeling and kriging estimation of the ore grade by rock type separation. Global and

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with the accuracy of our estimation of time to make contact with an approaching object as measured by the “Prediction Motion” (PM) technique. The PM task has commonly been used to measure the ability to judge time to contact (TTC). In a PM task, the observer's view of the target is occluded for some period leading up to the moment of impact. The length of the occlusion period is varied and the observer signals the moment of impact by pressing a response key. The interval separating the moment of occlusion and the response is interpreted as the observer's estimate of TT

Abstract:

Recently there has been a significant amount of interest in the area of wideband and ultra-wideband (UWB) signaling for use in indoor wireless systems. This interest is in part motivated by the notion that the use of large bandwidth signals makes systems less sensitive to the degrading effects of multipath propagation. By reducing the sensitivity to multipath, more robust and higher capacity systems can be realized. However, as signal bandwidth is increased, the complexity of a Rake receiver (or other receiver structure) required to capture the available power also increases. In addition, accu

Abstract:

Master of Science<br>Department of Statistics<br>Christopher Vahl<br>Sample size estimation is generally based on assumptions made during the planning stage of a clinical trial. Often, there is limited information available to estimate the initial sample size. This may result in a poor estimate. For instance, an insufficient sample size may not have the capability to produce statistically significant results, while an over-sized study will lead to a waste of resources or even ethical issues in that too many patients are exposed to potentially ineffective treatments. Therefore, an interim analy

Abstract:

Cigarette taxation is a topic which economists have focused on for years. The purpose of the cigarette tax is to force individuals who engage in risky activities to pay for the negative externalities caused by said activities. In the case of cigarette smoking, the notion has been that society as a whole subsidizes the smoking related external expenses through programs such as Medicare, Medicaid and group life and health insurance. At the center of this debate is â Cigarette Taxation and the Social Consequences of Smokingâ by W. Kip Viscusi. Viscusiâ s paper written in 1995 for the NBER pub

Abstract:

Does an increase of elderly employment cause a decline in youth employment? A simplified view of a demand driven economy would give a positive answer to this question. Econometric studies based on a single equation approach deliver little support for this belief. However, these studies typically suffer from identification problems to which no attention is paid in most cases. We therefore use a general equilibrium framework when trying to quantify these effects. Using yearly and quarterly Austrian labor and gdp data, we estimate two model variants by Bayesian methods: a) a standard equilibrium
