Abstract:
AbstractWith the heterogeneity of the industry 4.0 world, and more generally of the Cyberphysical Systems realm, the quest towards a platform approach to solve the interoperability problem is front and centre to any system and system-of-systems project. Traditional approaches cover individual aspects, like data exchange formats and published interfaces. They may adhere to some standard, however they hardly cover the production of the integration layer, which is implemented as bespoke glue code that is hard to produce and even harder to maintain. Therefore, the traditional integration approach often leads to poor code quality, further increasing the time and cost and reducing the agility, and a high reliance on the individual development skills. We are instead tackling the interoperability challenge by building a model driven/low-code Digital Thread platform that 1) systematizes the integration methodology, 2) provides methods and techniques for the individual integrations based on a layered Domain Specific Languages (DSL) approach, 3) through the DSLs it covers the integration space domain by domain, technology by technology, and is thus highly generalizable and reusable, 4) showcases a first collection of examples from the domains of robotics, IoT, data analytics, AI/ML and web applications, 5) brings cohesiveness to the aforementioned heterogeneous platform, and 6) is easier to understand and maintain, even by not specialized programmers. We showcase the power, versatility and the potential of the Digital Thread platform on four interoperability case studies: the generic extension to REST services, to robotics through the UR family of robots, to the integration of various external databases (for data integration) and to the provision of data analytics capabilities in R.

Abstract:
AbstractMathematical risk assessment models based on empirical data and supported by the principles of physics and engineering have been used in the insurance industry for more than three decades to support informed decisions for a wide variety of purposes, including insurance and reinsurance pricing. To supplement scarce data from historical events, these models provide loss estimates caused to portfolios of structures by simulated but realistic scenarios of future events with estimated annual rates of occurrence. The reliability of these estimates has evolved steadily from those based on the rather simplistic and, in many aspects, semi-deterministic approaches adopted in the very early days to those of the more recent models underpinned by a larger wealth of data and fully probabilistic methodologies. Despite the unquestionable progress, several modeling decisions and techniques still routinely adopted in commercial models warrant more careful scrutiny because of their potential to cause biased results. In this chapter we will address two such cases that pertain to the risk assessment for earthquakes. With the help of some illustrative but simple applications we will first motivate our concerns with the current state of practice in modeling earthquake occurrence and building vulnerability for portfolio risk assessment. We will then provide recommendations for moving towards a more comprehensive, and arguably superior, approach to earthquake risk modeling that capitalizes on the progress recently made in risk assessment of single buildings. In addition to these two upgrades, which in our opinion are ready for implementation in commercial models, we will also describe an enhancement in ground motion prediction that will certainly be considered in the models of tomorrow but is not yet ready for primetime. These changes are implemented in example applications that highlight their importance for portfolio risk assessment. Special consideration will be given to the potential bias in the Average Annual Loss estimates, which constitutes the foundation of insurance and reinsurance policies’ pricing, that may result from the application of the traditional approaches.

AbstractVerification and validation (V&amp;V) is a crucial step for the certification and deployment of deep neural networks (DNNs). Neuron coverage, inspired by code coverage in software testing, has been proposed as one such V&amp;V method. We provide a summary of different neuron coverage variants and their inspiration from traditional software engineering V&amp;V methods. Our first experiment shows that novelty and granularity are important considerations when assessing a coverage metric. Building on these observations, we provide an illustrative example for studying the advantages of pairwise coverage over simple neuron coverage. Finally, we show that there is an upper bound of realizable neuron coverage when test data are sampled from inside the operational design domain (in-ODD) instead of the entire input space.

AbstractIn this paper, a new structure of instruction prefetching unit is proposed. The prefetching is achieved by building the relationship between the branch source and its branch target and the relationship between the branch target and the first branch in its following instruction sequence. With the help of the proposed structure, it is easy to know whether the instruction block of branch target blocks exist in the instruction cache based on the recorded branch information. The two-level depth target prefetching can be performed to eliminate or reduce the instruction cache miss penalty. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed instruction prefetching scheme can achieve lower cache miss rate and miss penalty than the traditional next-line prefetching technique.

Abstract:
AbstractWhat we learned from the global financial crisis is that to get information about the underlying financial risk dynamics, we need to fully understand the complex, nonlinear, time-varying, and multidimensional nature of the data. A strand of literature has shown that machine learning approaches can make more accurate data-driven predictions than standard empirical models, thus providing more and more timely information about the building up of financial risks. Advanced machine learning techniques provide several advantages over empirical models traditionally used to monitor and predict financial developments. First, they are able to deal with high-dimensional datasets. Second, machine learning algorithms allow to deal with unbalanced datasets and retain all of the information available. Third, these methods are purely data driven. All of these characteristics contribute to their often better predictive performance. However, as “black box” models, they are still much underutilized in financial stability, a field where interpretability and accountability are crucial.

Abstract:
AbstractDialectics is a philosophical method developed by Hegel (1770–1831), but building on an intellectual tradition whose origins can be traced back to ancient Greece. Dialectics was initially practiced as an educational technique for conducting philosophical discussions. For Hegel, however, dialectical processes can be discerned in the dramatic unfolding of nature, history and human thinking as such. The first dialectical thinker, in the genuine sense of the term, according to Hegel (1971), was Heraclitus (535 – c. 475 BC), in whose “obscure” aphorisms Hegel recognises the awareness that dialectics is more than merely a technique to foster critical reflection. Heraclitus already refers to a basic logic guiding the dynamics of nature as such, to a λόγος at work in actual processes of becoming and change, giving rise to contrasting and contradictory developments (“objective dialectics”, as Hegel phrases it). For dialectical thinkers, the dialectical method is fundamentally in tune with nature, because nature as such is inherently dialectical. Hegel considered Aristotle as ancient philosophy’s most thoroughly dialectical thinker, as we have seen, while Hegel himself is regarded as a modern Aristotle (Beiser, 2005, p. 57; Pippin, 2019, p. 301).

Abstract:
AbstractTaihu stone is the most famous one among the top four stones in China. It is formed by the water's erosion in Taihu Lake for hundreds or even thousands of years. It has become a common ornamental stone in classical Chinese gardens because of its porous and intricate forms. At the same time, it has become a cultural symbol through thousands of years of history in China; later, people researched its spatial aesthetics; there are also some studies on its structural properties. For example, it has been found that the opening of Taihu stone caves has a steady-state effect which people develop its value in the theory of Poros City, Porosity in Architecture and some cultural symbols based on the original ornamental value of Taihu stone. This paper introduces a hybrid generative design method that integrates the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Bi-directional Evolutionary Structural Optimization (BESO) techniques. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation enables architects and engineers to predict and optimise the performance of buildings and environment in the early stage of the design and topology optimisation techniques BESO has been widely used in structural design to evolve a structure from the full design domain towards an optimum by gradually removing inefficient material and adding materials simultaneously. This research aims to design the artificial Taihu stone based on the environmental data-driven performance feedback using the topological optimisation method. As traditional and historical ornament craftwork in China, the new artificial Taihu stone stimulates thinking about the new value and unique significance of the cultural symbol of Taihu stone in modern society. It proposes possibilities and reflections on exploring the related fields of Porosity in Architecture and Poros City from the perspective of structure.

Abstract:
What were the traditional techniques and materials employed to maintain and conserve vernacular buildings? If we study carefully, we could find the answers in analyzing existing vernacular constructions, related traditional building cultures, and the inhabitants’ lifestyle practices. My research, particularly my Master’s in Architectural Conservation dissertation, aimed to explore the tangible and intangible aspects of traditional living that contributed to the conservation of vernacular buildings.My research affirmed that people in the olden times had a deep understanding of their surrounding

Abstract:
Until these days there are three very well-known structural forms in cable-stayed bridge construction: radial, harp and fan. These three well-known and analyzed systems ensure the stability of the cable-stayed bridges in a variety of conditions. In order to reduce the amount of materials various solutions are used. One way to reduce the cost of steel may be a new, innovative structural form. A new cable-stayed bridge structure, which requires smaller quantities of materials, is proposed in this Paper. New structural form is compared with traditional cable-stayed structures and the conclusions,

Abstract:
The preservation of vernacular architecture is grounded on the study of those building techniques adopted in the past, when know-how and craftmanship (the rule-of-thumb for a well-arranged building) governed the spontaneous construction. The advent of new industrial materials and the progressive impoverishment of constructive skills caused the loss of traditional architectural features in favour of a standardized construction, often concealed from the outside. In the framework of the actual debate about the reconstruction of earthquake damaged historical centres, traditional building technique

Abstract:
Vernacular architecture contemplates by its nature a variety of forms and construction techniques self- designed by the communities that inhabit it in response to specific needs. In Tuscany, an area with a me- dium-high seismic risk and a long seismic tradition such as Mugello, local building techniques can be identified with a common purpose: to improve the resistance of buildings. Using traditional techniques, the vernacular architecture of this area has seen the use of particular expedients as protective measures, in some cases adopted precisely in response to the movements and stresses to

The construction sector holds a large of share in carbon dioxide emissions. in pursuit of minimizing the carbon footprint, it started applying new building techniques and employing environmentally friendly materials One of those applications is rammed earth wall which was originally a traditional construction method that uses soil as the main material. The purpose of this study is to propose the rammed earth technique as an alternative approach for minimizing carbon footprint. It is also discussed its thermal behaviour and required energy to construct. The advantages and disadvantages are stat

Abstract:
For the production of traditional building materials, excavated natural resources are used. The production process of such materials requires high-energy demands, wherefore, high amounts of CO2 gases, which have a great impact on climate change, are emitted. Only a small part of such materials is effectively recycled and reused. Generally, they are transported to landfills, which rapidly expand and may pollute the soil, groundwater and air. Currently, a great attention is paid to the production of novel building materials. The aim is to use as less excavated materials as possible and replace t
