This work builds a ridesharing model that compares the successful matching rate and detour cost of ridesharing with three types of social connections (i.e., friends) in a small-world network: direct friends, direct or indirect friends, and anyone. How much is trust: The cost and benefit of ridesharing with friends Yaoli Wang1, Nicole Ronald1,2, Ronny Kutadinata1, Stephan Winter1 1 Department of...

We use the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) land surface macroscale hydrology model driven by observed maximum and minimum air temperatures and precipitation to map daily soil moisture values over China for the period 1 January 1971 to 31 July 2005. The model is applied over a grid of 10 458 points with a resolution of 30 km × 30 km. The model is first calibrated using observed hydrographs ...

This paper introduces a velocital information feature that is extracted for each frame of an image sequence. The feature is based on the optical flow in each frame. A mathematical formulation for the velocital information feature is derived. Charting the feature over a sequence provides a quality metric called velocital information content (VIC). The relationship of VIC to the spatial and tempo...

Nowadays small and medium enterprises try to develop new competitive advantages in order to access global markets. Virtual Industry Clusters (VIC) are an alternative for these companies, in such a way, that the companies can joint forces and competencies in the development of Virtual Enterprises (VE). Once the VICs are created, a structured process that manage the members’ core competencies, al...
