COMP Report: CPQR technical quality control guidelines for use of positron emission tomography/computed tomography in radiation treatment planning

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Positron emission tomography with x‐ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is increasingly being utilized for radiation treatment planning (RTP). Accurate delivery of RT therefore depends on quality PET/CT data. This study covers quality control (QC) procedures required for PET/CT for diagnostic imaging and incremental QC required for RTP.

Life Cycle Thinking for Sustainable Consumption and Production towards a Circular Economy [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
The current model of a linear economy with end-of-pipe waste treatment is not sustainable. Cleaner production helps reduce resource use and emissions, but is still not an optimal solution without considering a life cycle perspective.

Bounded Rationality and Animal Spirits: A Fluctuation-Response Approach to Slutsky Matrices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The Slutsky equation, central in consumer choice theory, is derived from the usual hypotheses underlying most standard models in Economics, such as full rationality, homogeneity, and absence of interactions. We present a statistical physics framework that allows us to relax such assumptions.

Towards Energy Consumption and Carbon Footprint Testing for AI-driven IoT Services [PDF]

open access: yes2022 IEEE International Conference on Cloud Engineering (IC2E 2022), 2023
Energy consumption and carbon emissions are expected to be crucial factors for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Both the scale and the geo-distribution keep increasing, while Artificial Intelligence (AI) further penetrates the "edge" in order to satisfy the need for highly-responsive and intelligent services.
