Abstract
We develop a new computing paradigm, which we refer to as data-driven computing, according to which calculations are carried out directly from experimental material data and pertinent constraints and conservation laws, such as compatibility and equilibrium, thus bypassing the empirical [...]
Abstract
The increase in online audience and the development of Big Data in organizations modify the media planning activity and, consequently, the profile of the planner. Following the digital expansion, more information has become available to perform this task, but also, more complexity [...]Abstract
The work presents the performance of the MapReduce technique to reconstruct the load curve from a previously stored amount of information coming from smart metering of electrical energy and currently considered as Big Data. The management of information in the stage of an intelligent [...]Abstract
Big Data opens up new opportunities to define “Intelligent” mobility and transportation solutions. The transportation industry is a leader in creating the so-called Internet of Everything. Each day vast volumes of data are generated through sensors in passenger counting and vehicle [...]Abstract
This thesis aims to give insight into a novel approach for quantifying car traffic in developing cities. This is necessary to improve efficiency in resource allocation for improvements in infrastructure. The project took form of a case study of neighborhoods in the city of Nairobi, [...]Abstract
Digital evolution has significantly changed consumer shopping habits and expectations resulting in a major growth of e-commerce. The immediate outcome of this growth was the creation of a dynamic and turbulent environment with increasing density of the distribution network. This environment [...]Abstract
Big data has opened a wide spectrum of opportunities in the field of transport research. Several challenges will constitute opportunities for researchers (as well as the industry) in the foreseeable future. Observing the recent growing interest in the application of big data within [...]Abstract
The paper deals with the integration of data provided from traditional transport surveys (small data) with big data, provided from Information and Communication Technology (ICT), in building Transport System Models (TSMs). Big data are used to observe historical mobility patterns [...]
