The Many Shades of Clouds: How Law Fails (Us) in Seeing Power in the Digital Economy

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cloud infrastructures form the backbone of our contemporary (digital) production environment. Despite their centrality, legal and scholarly practice have not been treating cloud infrastructures as single objects of/for study. In other words, we have laws for regulating services and products that flow from (within) cloud infrastructures, but we

Simple Model-Free Controller for the Stabilization of Planetary Inverted Pendulum

open access: yesJournal of Control Science and Engineering, 2012
A simple model-free controller is presented for solving the nonlinear dynamic control problems. As an example of the problem, a planetary gear-type inverted pendulum (PIP) is discussed.

Aging and the Division of Labor of Theory of Mind Skills in Metaphor Comprehension

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract While some aspects of pragmatic competence are known to decline with age, for metaphor skills the evidence is inconclusive, possibly due to heterogeneity in the assessment tools. Furthermore, the previous literature on age‐related changes in pragmatic skills has rarely considered the role of Theory of Mind (ToM), which is described as one of ...

Induced abortion in the world: 3. In search of a minimum common ground

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 173, Issue 3, Page 1223-1231, June 2026.
Abstract The rising worldwide trend toward legalization of termination of pregnancy has been accompanied by increased polarization around abortion.

The effect of compliance assistance on pollution discharges and violations of environmental regulations

open access: yesJournal of Policy Analysis and Management, Volume 45, Issue 3, Summer 2026.
Abstract Researchers and policymakers assert competing behavioral models of polluters. One model portrays polluters as best approximated by the perfectly informed, rational actor from economics textbooks. Another model portrays polluters, particularly small and medium facilities, as imperfectly informed, cognitively bounded, pro‐social actors.

Time‐Adaptive HénonNets for Separable Hamiltonian Systems

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Measurement data is often sampled irregularly, i.e., not on equidistant time grids. This is also true for Hamiltonian systems. However, existing machine learning methods, which learn symplectic integrators, such as SympNets and HénonNets still require training data generated by fixed step sizes.
