Trade and World Power: A model for a Time-Space Appropriation Assessment of an 18 th Century Swedish-Chinese-Spanish(-American) Trade Exchange

Trade and World Power: A Time-Space Appropriation Assessment of an 18th Century Swedish-Chinese-Spanish(-American) Trade Exchange Was China rather than Europe the center of the early modern world system, as claimed by so-called new world historians such as Kenneth Pomeranz and Andre Gunder Frank? Can structural position within the hierarchy of the world system be revealed through assessment of ec

Educating the next generation decision makers - the multi-disciplinary classroom as a platform for developing communication skills needed for future progress of adaptation measures

The scientific knowledge of climate change processes and their worrying future implications for human societies and natural systems has developed considerably during the last decade, but necessary adaptive actions by decision makers have so far been rather limited. There are several causes to this, such as a discrepancy related to the communication between climate scientists and end-users, and the

Comparing housing co-operatives in Sweden and condominiums in Hong Kong

Whilst the universal growth of home ownership in most advanced industrial countries attracts much attention in housing studies, owner occupation in multi-family housing, which is a dominant form of home ownership in many large cities particularly in Asia, is largely underresearched. In fact, such tenure form is arguably more complicated in terms of the social relation in housing as well as having

Semantic Games for Algorithmic Players

We describe a class of semantic extensive entailment game (eeg) with algorithmic players, related to game-theoretic semantics (gts), and generalized to classical first-order semantic entailment. Players have preferences for parsimonious spending of computational resources, and compute partial strategies, under qualitative uncertainty about future histories. We prove the existence of local preferen

Statistical Predictive Design Analysis in an Internet Environment

During recent years the increasing power of computers and communications has led to the use of more advanced analysis approaches within the mechanical engineering design process, or design process for short. Predictive Design Analysis (PDA), see [1], is an approach in which the final behavior of a product is predicted by combining information from different analysis techniques. This paper presents
