Special section on modeling of reactive systems

Introduction to the Special Section on Control and Grid Integration of Wind Energy Systems - Part II

Special section on "Spatial data warehouses and SOLAP"

Data Warehouses (DW) and OnLine Analytical Processing (OLAP) tools are used in Business Intelligence (BI) applications in order to support decision-making processes. DWs are a specific type of database used to integrate, accumulate and analyze data from various sources. OLAP tools provide means to query and to analyze the warehoused information and produce online statistical summaries (indicato...

NOTEBOOK FOR SPATIAL DATA ANALYSIS Part II

Given the above model of stationary random spatial effects { ( ) : } s s R   , our ultimate objective is to apply these concepts to spatial models involving global trends, ( ) s  , i.e., to spatial stochastic models of the form, ( ) ( ) ( ) , Y s s s s R      . In continuous spatial data analysis, the most fully developed models of this type focus on spatial prediction, where values of ...
