We present a method for visual and interactive geospatial redescription mining. The goal of geospatial redescription mining is to characterize geospatial areas using two different descriptions, such as their bioclimatic features and fauna. Indeed, one application of geospatial redescription mining is finding bioclimatic niches, i.e. explaining the distribution of species using their bioclimatic...

Today’s building automation systems must be capable of dealing with a large number of simultaneously occurring events. Human operators monitor these events in order to maintain situational awareness, to detect physical intrusion or hardware problems, and other irregularities. We transferred the so-called temporal mosaic charts to building environments and compared their use with entropy-enriche...

The current energy prices are at a historically high level. This, ombined with technological advances, has led to a surge in the nterest in energy savings in buildings. Buildings are traditionlly the domain of civil engineers, but from a modeling, control nd optimal operation point of view, there are strong similarities ith industrial processes, where use of control and other system ngineering ...

Correspondence analysis was applied to sand fly sampling in 865 stations from the Western Mediterranean basin. The position of each of 24 species was determined with respect to the bioclimatic belts. Thus, the multidimensional analyses manifest clear correlations between bioclimatic belts and their expression in the area, the phytosociological groupings, and vector species of visceral and cutan...

one of the primary stages of climatic architectural design is the knowledge of the environmental conditions and meteorology data analyzing according to human thermal comfort and usage of building material. nowadays access to meteorology data of all iran meteorology stations is available on the website of the iran meteorology organization. therefore every architect who feels himself/herself resp...

Africa is predicted to be highly vulnerable to 21st century climatic changes. Assessing the impacts of these changes on Africa’s biodiversity is, however, plagued by uncertainties, and markedly different results can be obtained from alternative bioclimatic envelope models or future climate projections. Using an ensemble forecasting framework, we examine projections of future shifts in climatic ...
