Subjects: 006: Spezielle Computerverfahren

description: In Kooperation mit QuantumBasel wurden im Rahmen der vorliegenden Masterarbeit die potenziellen Anwendungsbereiche des Quantencomputings sowie die Bereitschaft von Schweizer Unternehmen zur Implementierung dieser Technologie im Kontext des Technologiemanagements untersucht. Ziel ist es, ein tiefes Verständnis für die praktischen Anwendungsmöglichkeiten und Herausforderungen von Quantencomputing im kommerziellen Sektor zu entwickeln und Unternehmen bei der Bewertung und Entscheidungsfindung zu unterstützen. Ein zentrales Problem für QuantumBasel besteht darin, das Interesse und langfristige Engagement von Unternehmen für Quantencomputing -Projekte zu wecken und gleichzeitig die Verbreitung und Weiterentwicklung dieser vielversprechenden Technologie voranzutreiben.

Die Studie kombiniert eine Literaturrecherche und Experteninterviews, um die Vorteile und Hindernisse der Quantencomputing-Adoption im Technologiemanagement zu identifizieren. Besonders in den Bereichen Optimierung, Simulation, Maschinelles Lernen und Kryptografie zeigt Quantencomputing grosses Potenzial. Die Vorbereitung auf Quantencomputing bringt jedoch erhebliche Herausforderungen mit sich, insbesondere bei der Abwägung von Nutzen und Investitionen. Analysiert wurden strategische, operative und technologische Merkmale sowie die Risikobereitschaft und Anpassungsfähigkeit von Unternehmen. Diese Faktoren sind entscheidend für die erfolgreiche Integration von Quantencomputing-Technologien.

Ein speziell entwickelter Fragebogen befähigt Unternehmen zur systematischen und effizienten Evaluierung ihrer Eignung für Quantencomputing. Dabei werden Erwartungen, spezifische Anforderungen, die strategische Ausrichtung und verfügbare Ressourcen berücksichtigt, um eine Selbsteinschätzung zu erleichtern. Die gewonnenen Daten bieten Quantencomputing-Lösungsanbietern wertvolle Einblicke, die eine Weiterentwicklung ihrer Produkte, Dienstleistungen und Prozesse sowie Kosteneinsparungen ermöglichen.

Die Arbeit schliesst mit Handlungsempfehlungen ab, die sowohl Unternehmen als auch Quantencomputing-Anbietern strategische Leitlinien zur Optimierung ihrer Quantencomputing-Adoptionsansätze bieten. Der Fragebogen dient als Instrument zur Identifizierung geeigneter Kandidaten für Quantencomputing-Technologien und unterstützt Unternehmen bei der Entscheidungsfindung, was die erfolgreiche Einführung und Nutzung von Quantentechnologien fördert.

description: Pristiphora armata   Type material examined:
 Twelve extant specimens were examined that had been placed under the name Nematus armatus in Thomson’s collection at Lund. Four of them are male specimens and cannot be considered to be syntypes, because Thomson (1863) described only the female. One female specimen has all-black antennae and a lancet that resembles that of Pristiphora subopaca Lindqvist, 1955. This cannot be a syntype, because Thomson described the antennae of N. armatus as reddish. The remaining seven specimens are all females which appeared, on the basis of external morphology, to be P. armata as described in this paper. One had been examined previously by E. Lindqvist and determined as P. crassicornis (Hartig, 1837). Slides were made of the lancets of two specimens (KJG/X112 and X197). These resembled the lancets of P. armata as described below except that the serrulae were much shorter: even shorter than those of P. leucopus. The ratio of the lengths of the precalcars and postcalcars of serrulae 5–7 was only about 1.5 compared to 1.84 for the P. armata lancets measured in this study. No data is available regarding the plant associations of these Swedish specimens. The dates of collection are not clearly marked on any of the specimens and the localities indicated only as abbreviations. Research into these abbreviations (Fitton 1982 & R. Danielsson pers. comm.) has revealed that the seven females which appeared to be P. armata were all collected in the locations mentioned in Thomson’s 1863 paper and are therefore syntypes.
 The short serrulae of the two syntypes of which the lancets were examined may indicate that these are not conspecific with P. armata as currently understood. Examination of other adult specimens offered no support for the hypothesis that a further case of seasonal polyphenism is involved. We have decided not to designate a lectotype at present. In view of the large number of nominal taxa in the group and numerous taxonomic uncertainties, a lectotype designation should be undertaken during a revision of the group.

description: We have explored the link between proximity and price transmission in rice markets, where proximity is captured using variables for geographic, political and cultural distance. Linear and threshold cointegration was tested for 351 rice market pairs in six West African countries, with threshold specifications accounting for transaction costs. The influence of proximity on price transmission is estimated in a subsequent multinomial logistic regression. The results provide evidence of a robust and statistically significant link between the strength of price transmission and measures of proximity such as distance, international borders, contiguity and a common language. We conclude that proximity matters for market integration processes in West African rice markets.

description: We present low and high resolution long-slit spectra of three bipolar planetary nebulae (PNe) with bright central cores: A79, He2-428 and M1-91. He2-428 and M1-91 have high density (from 10^3.3 to 10^6.5 cm^-3) unresolved nebular cores that indicate that strong mass loss/exchange phenomena are occurring close to their central stars. An F0 star is found at the centre of symmetry of A79; its reddening and distance are consistent with the association of the star with the nebula. The spectrum of the core of He2-428 shows indications of the presence of a hot star with red excess emission, probably arising in a late-type companion. A79 is one of the richest PNe in N and He, the abundances of M1-91 are at the lower end of the range spanned by bipolar PNe, and He2-428 shows very low abundances, similar to those measured for halo PNe. The extended nebulae of A79 and He2-428 have inclined equatorial rings expanding at a velocity of approx. 15 km/s, with kinematical ages 10^4 yr. The association of these aged, extended nebulae with a dense nebular core (He2-428) or a relatively late type star (A79) is interpreted as evidence for the binarity of their nuclei.

description: We develop a theory of short star-products for filtered quantizations of graded Poisson algebras, introduced in 2016 by Beem, Peelaers and Rastelli for algebras of regular functions on hyperKähler cones in the context of 3-dimensional $N=4$ superconformal field theories [Beem C., Peelaers W., Rastelli L., Comm. Math. Phys. 354 (2017), 345-392, arXiv:1601.05378]. This appears to be a new structure in representation theory, which is an algebraic incarnation of the non-holomorphic ${\rm SU}(2)$-symmetry of such cones. Using the technique of twisted traces on quantizations (an idea due to Kontsevich), we prove the conjecture by Beem, Peelaers and Rastelli that short star-products depend on finitely many parameters (under a natural nondegeneracy condition), and also construct these star products in a number of examples, confirming another conjecture by Beem, Peelaers and Rastelli.

description: Through automated electronic health record (EHR) data extraction and analysis, this project systematically quantified actual care delivery for children with cerebral palsy (CP) and evaluated alignment with current evidence-based recommendations. Utilizing EHR data for over 8000 children with CP, we developed an approach to define and quantify receipt of optimal care, and pursued proof-of-concept with two children with unilateral CP, Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) Level II. Optimal care was codified as a cluster of four components including physical medicine and rehabilitation (PMR) care, spasticity management, physical therapy (PT), and occupational therapy (OT). A Receipt of Care Score (ROCS) quantified the degree of adherence to recommendations and was compared with the Pediatric Outcomes Data Collection Instrument (PODCI) and Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PEDS QL). The two children (12 year old female, 13 year old male) had nearly identical PMR and spasticity component scores while PT and OT scores were more divergent. Functional outcomes were higher for the child who had higher adjusted ROCS. ROCSs demonstrate variation in real-world care delivered over time and differentiate between components of care. ROCSs reflect overall function and quality of life. The ROCS methods developed are novel, robust, and scalable and will be tested in a larger sample.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONOptimal practice, with an emphasis on integrated multidisciplinary care, can be defined and quantified utilizing evidence-based recommendations.Receipt of optimal care for childhood cerebral palsy can be scored using existing electronic health record data.Big Data approaches can contribute to the understanding of current care and inform approaches for improved care.

description: To summarize the research on the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) therapy for the management of phantom limb pain (PLP). Three databases (SCOPUS, Ovid Embase, and Ovid MEDLINE) were searched for studies investigating the use of VR therapy for the treatment of PLP. Original research articles fulfilling the following criteria were included: (i) patients 18 years and older; (ii) all etiologies of amputation; (iii) any level of amputation; (iv) use of immersive VR as a treatment modality for PLP; (v) self-reported objective measures of PLP before and after at least one VR session; (vi) written in English. A total of 15 studies were included for analysis. Fourteen studies reported decreases in objective pain scores following a single VR session or a VR intervention consisting of multiple sessions. Moreover, combining VR with tactile stimulation had a larger beneficial effect on PLP compared with VR alone. Based on the current literature, VR therapy has the potential to be an effective treatment modality for the management of PLP. However, the low quality of studies, heterogeneity in subject population and intervention type, and lack of data on long-term relief make it difficult to draw definitive conclusions.IMPLICATION FOR REHABILITATIONVirtual reality (VR) therapy has emerged as a new potential treatment option for phantom limb pain (PLP) that circumvents some limitations of mirror therapy.VR therapy was shown to decrease PLP following a single VR session as well as after an intervention consisting of multiple sessions.The addition of vibrotactile stimuli to VR therapy may lead to larger decreases in PLP scores compared with VR therapy alone.

The results are remarkably simple and all integrals are expressed as linear combinations of iterated integrals of modular forms of uniform weight for the same congruence subgroup as for the two-loop equal-mass sunrise graph. We also show how to write the results in terms of elliptic polylogarithms evaluated at rational points.

description: Growth in population and income, as well as urbanisation, are contributing to the growing consumption of high-value foods in developing countries. However, public and private investments targeting high-value agricultural markets are constrained by limited information on the quality dimensions of the market, the nature of traditional retail formats, and consumer segmentation. This paper presents a simple and appropriate methodology to provide such information, and applies it in Tanzania to animal-sourced foods. It features a rapid survey, which is then aligned with nationally representative survey data. The results show that Tanzanian consumers demand, and are anticipated to continue demanding, relatively good-quality animal products but in rather low-valued product forms. Consumer segments are differentiated by level of wealth and by choice of retail format and retail product form, rather than by quality per se.

description: Conservation tillage (CT) is one of the practices promoted to enhance sustainable agricultural production and the adaptive capacity of smallholder farmers. It is a new farming practice for smallholder farmers in Ethiopia. Lack of information on the existence and use of the technology, as well as its profitability, could deter its adoption. This paper examines the role of social learning in the adoption of CT in rural northwest Ethiopia. We used a spatial econometric model on crosssectional plot-level survey data to achieve this objective. The results show that neighbour effect is a significant determinant of CT adoption in the study area. This suggests that the adoption of CT is occurring through neighbourhood effects, and that considering progressive farmers when designing technology-promotion programmes can speed up the adoption process.

description: We present initial results of a new, systematic search for massive star-formation in the host galaxies of the most luminous and probably most massive z>=4 radio-quiet quasars (M(B) <= -27.5; nuL(nu)(1450Ang)>10^13Lsun). A total of 38 z>=4 radio-quiet quasars have been observed at the JCMT using SCUBA at 850microns: 8 were detected (>3sigma) with S(850microns)>~ 10mJy (submillimetre-loud). The new detections almost triple the number of optically selected, submillimetre-loud z>~4 radio-quiet quasars known to date. We include a detailed description of how our quasar sample is defined in terms of radio and optical properties. There is no strong evidence for trends in either detectability or 850microns flux with absolute magnitude, M(B). We find that the weighted mean flux of the undetected sources is 2.0 +/- 0.6mJy, consistent with an earlier estimate of \~3mJy based on more sensitive observations of a sample z>~4 radio-quiet quasars (McMahon et al., 1999). This corresponds to an inferred starformation rate of \~1000Msun/yr, similar to Arp220. The typical starformation timescale for the submillimetre-bright sources is ~1Gyr, 10 times longer than the typical accretion-driven e-folding timescale of ~5x10^7 years. Our 850micron detection of the z=4.4 quasar PSS J1048+4407 when analysed in conjunction with 1.2mm single-dish and interferometric observations suggests that this source is resolved on angular scales of 1-2" (6-12 kpc). In addition, we present a new optical spectrum of this source, identifying it as a broad absorption line (BAL) quasar. The new redshift is outside that covered in a recent CO line search by Guilloteau et al., (1999), highlighting the need for accurate redshifts for the obervation and interpretation of high-redshift line studies.

description: The challenge of reconciling social, economic and ecological objectives in the pricing of park entry fees in developing countries often translates into the undervaluation of the recreational services and various adverse effects. This paper asks whether a more market-oriented pricing mechanism that reflects visitors’ preferences and willingness to pay would better contribute to a more sustainable provision of park amenities than an administered price in the face of government budget constraints. With information collected from 477 visitors, the results – based on a double-bounded contingent valuation – show a mean willingness to pay of more than three times the actual entry fees. An increase in the latter so as to match visitors’ willingness to pay, as well as various policies that effectively exploit the heterogeneity in individual valuations, could lead to an even greater increase in the generated revenues and definitely help meet the challenge of adequately pricing the park amenities.

description: Cosmic-ray electrons (CREs) originating from the star-forming discs of spiral galaxies frequently form extended radio haloes that are best observable in edge-on galaxies. For the present study we selected two nearby edge-on galaxies from the CHANG-ES survey, NGC 891 and 4565, which differ largely in halo size and SFR. To figure out how such differences are related to the CRE transport in disc and halo, we use wide-band 1.5 and 6 GHz VLA observations obtained in the B, C, and D configurations, and combine the 6 GHz images with Effelsberg observations to correct for missing short spacings. We study the spatially resolved non-thermal spectral index distribution in terms of CRE spectral ageing, compute total magnetic field strengths assuming energy equipartition between CRs and magnetic fields, and also determine synchrotron scale heights. Based on the vertical profiles of synchrotron intensity and spectral index, we create purely advective and purely diffusive CRE transport models by numerically solving the 1D diffusion-loss equation. In particular, we investigate for the first time the radial dependence of synchrotron and magnetic field scale heights, advection speeds and diffusion coefficients in these two galaxies. We find the spectral index distribution of NGC 891 to be mostly consistent with continuous CRE injection, while in NGC 4565 the local synchrotron spectra are more in line with discrete-epoch CRE injection (JP or KP models). This implies that CRE injection timescales are lower than the synchrotron cooling timescales. The scale height of NGC 891 increases with radius, indicating that synchrotron losses are significant. NGC 891 is probably dominated by advective CRE transport at a velocity of $\gtrsim150\,\mathrm{km\,s^{-1}}$. In contrast, NGC 4565 is diffusion-dominated up to $z=1$ kpc or higher, with a diffusion coefficient of $\geq2\times10^{28}\,\mathrm{cm^2\,s^{-1}}$.

Polyelectrolytes in the presence of multivalent ions: gelation versus segregation

description: We analyze solutions of strongly charged chains bridged by linkers such as multivalent ions. The gelation induced by the strong short range electrostatic attractions is dramatically suppressed by the long range electrostatic correlations due to the charge along the uncrosslinked monomers and ions. A modified Debye-Huckel approach of crosslinked clusters of charged chains is used to determined the mean field gelation transition self-consistently. Highly dilute polyelectrolyte solutions tend to segregate macroscopically. Semidilute solutions can form gels if the Bjerrum length $l_B$ and the distance between neighboring charged monomers along the chain $b$ are both greater than the ion size $a$.

description: Few empirical studies have estimated the direct effects of biotic (disease and pest) and abiotic (e.g. drought and flood) stresses on cocoa-producing households. As such, this study extends the existing literature by using household-level data from Ghana over three cocoa growing seasons (2002, 2004 and 2006) in a regression framework to estimate the responsiveness of cocoa yields to biotic and abiotic stress at the household level. The results show that, for farms exposed per year, overall stress from pests makes up the highest percentage, followed by disease stresses and abiotic stresses. In addition, the results from the regression model show that cocoa yields decline by 0.046%, 0.013% and 0.003% respectively for every one percent increase in the proportion of the farm affected by disease, pests and abiotic stress that persist for a year. The findings of this study suggest that the government of Ghana should consider expanding the scope of the National Cocoa Diseases and Pest Control Programme to include other pests that are not included in the programme. We also recommend an insurance product for cocoa to help farmers manage the risks of abiotic stresses such as droughts and floods that destroy investments and potential income.

description: In this talk, I provide an overview of the promise and perils of the smart city, linking these to broader-scale technological changes occurring at global to local scales. I then focus on the criticism that many elements of smart cities—for example, increased surveillance or algorithmic bias—may create or magnify societal and spatial inequalities. The heart of the talk engages with one specific component of the smart city-inequality debate: how and for whom knowledge is produced within cities, with a focus on sensor placement, coverage gaps, and uncertainty variability. A case study for Newcastle (UK) is presented to help illustrate the issues. In concluding, I highlight the importance of this aspect of smart city inequality, especially with regard to public health and policy efficacy.

description: Australia’s carbon price has been in operation for two years. The electricity sector accounts for the majority of emissions covered under the scheme. This paper examines the impact of the carbon price on the electricity sector between 1 July 2012 and 30 June 2014, focusing on the National Electricity Market (NEM). Over this period, electricity demand in the NEM declined by 3.8 per cent, the emissions intensity of electricity supply by 4.6 per cent, and overall emissions by 8.2 per cent, compared to the two-year period before the carbon price. We detail observable changes in power demand and supply mix, and estimate the quantitative effect of the effect of the carbon price. We estimate that the carbon price led to an average 10 per cent increase in nominal retail household electricity prices, an average 15 per cent increase in industrial electricity prices and a 59 per cent increase in wholesale (spot) electricity prices. It is likely that in response, households, businesses and the industrial sector reduced their electricity use. We estimate the demand reduction attributable to the carbon price at 2.5 to 4.2 TWh per year, about 1.3 to 2.3 per cent of total electricity demand in the NEM. The carbon price markedly changed relative costs between different types of power plants. Emissions-intensive brown coal and black coal generators reduced output and 4GW of emissions-intensive generation capacity was taken offline. We estimate that these shifts in the supply mix resulted in a 16 to 28kg CO2/MWh reduction in the emissions intensity of power supply in the NEM, a reduction between 1.8 and 3.3 per cent. The combined impact attributable to the carbon price is estimated as a reduction of between 5 and 8 million tonnes of CO2 emissions (3.2 to 5 per cent) in 2012/13 and between 6 and 9 million tonnes (3.5 to 5.6 per cent) in 2013/14, and between 11 and 17 million tonnes cumulatively. There are fundamental difficulties in attributing observed changes in demand and supply to specific causes, especially over the short term, and in this light we use conservative parameters in the estimation of the effect of the carbon price. We conclude that the carbon price has worked as expected in terms of its short-term impacts. However, its effect on investment in power generation assets has probably been limited, because of policy uncertainty about the continuation of the carbon pricing mechanism. For emissions pricing to have its full effect, a stable, long-term policy framework is needed.
