Assessing Capability Complexity Using Enterprise Architecture Framework
Systems Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study proposes a structured and quantitative methodology to evaluate the holistic complexity of system‐of‐systems (SoSs), employing the Zachman Architecture Framework (ZAF) as its foundational analytical tool. A five‐phase analytical procedure is developed and empirically validated, encompassing: (1) refinement of complexity measures, (2)

The Feasibility of Household Food Waste Reduction in Finland: Insights From Five Consumer Profiles
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We apply a household production framework to analyse how changes in cooking skills, waste‐abatement costs and wage rates influence the food waste behaviour of five consumer profiles in Finland. We find that achieving a given reduction in food waste through skill‐enhancing interventions induces larger behavioural adjustments than equivalent ...

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Hidden Markov diagnostic classification models capture how students' cognitive attributes evolve over time. This paper introduces a Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for diagnostic classification models that jointly estimates time‐varying Q matrices, latent attributes, item parameters, attribute class proportions and transition ...

Register‐Efficient Linear‐Time Evaluation in the Bernstein Basis
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We investigate the evaluation of points and derivatives of Bézier curves and surfaces on modern architectures, focusing on performance and guided by numerical error bounds. While the de Casteljau algorithm remains the reference for numerical robustness, its linear working‐set size imposes substantial register pressure on GPUs.

Survey on Visualization of Information Diffusion over Networks
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Information Diffusion (ID) describes how a value (e.g., a pathogen, a rumor, a packet) spreads through an underlying “medium” network of elements (e.g., a social or computer network). Understanding the information diffusion process is essential to predicting trends, controlling misinformation, and enhancing decision‐making as well as ...

Fast Nodal Hessian Computation for Peridynamic Fracture Simulation
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.A fast, exact nodal Hessian computation for Non‐Ordinary State‐Based Peridynamics is introduced through analytical simplification and a warp‐centric GPU strategy. The method accelerates preconditioned solvers and Vertex Block Descent, enabling interactive fracture simulation with physical accuracy.

Rational Expectations Fools' Bubbles
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We develop a rational, Walrasian model of speculative bubbles inspired by the Kindleberger–Minsky view, which describes bubbles as wave‐like market processes. Touched off by an initial shock, price booms are initially self‐reinforcing but become self‐destructive later when prices surpass fundamental value.

A spectral analysis extension to DEMATEL for strategic leverage points identification
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract Efforts to intervene in complex systems often emphasize influential factors, yet system behavior is equally shaped by the relationships among them. Methods such as Decision‐Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) map causal structures but remain descriptive and do not identify which relationships provide the greatest leverage for ...

Complete reducibility in some algebraic systems
In some algebraic systems we find algebraic objects which are direct sums of indecomposable or simple or irreducible sub-objects. Conditions for such complete reducibility are different, but results are quite similar. Examples are the Krull-Remak-Schmidt'
