Anhand des vom Gutachterausschuß der Stadt Kaiserlautern zur Verfügung gestellten Datenmaterials soll untersucht werden, welche Faktoren den Verkehrswert eines bebauten Grundstücks beeinflussen. Mit diesen Erkenntnissen soll eine möglichst einfache Formel ermittelt werden, die eine Schätzung für den Verkehrswert liefert, und die dabei die in der Vergangenheit erzielten Kaufpreise berücksichtigt. Für die Lösung dieser Aufgabe bietet sich das Verfahren der multiplen linearen Regression an. Auf die theoretischen Grundlagen soll hier nicht näher eingegangen werden, man findet sie in jedem Buch über mathematische Statistik, oder in [1]. Bei der Analyse der Daten wurde im großen und ganzen der Weg eingeschlagen, den Angelika Schwarz in [1] beschreibt. Ihre Ergebnisse lassen sich jedoch nicht direkt übertragen, da die dort betrachteten Grundstücke unbebaut waren. Da bei der statistischen Auswertung großer Datenmengen ein immenser Rechenaufwand anfällt, ist es unverzichtbar, professionelle statistische Software einzusetzen. Es stand das Programm S-Plus 2.0 (PC-Version für Windows) zur Verfügung. Sämtliche Berechnungen und alle Grafiken in diesem Bericht wurden in S-Plus erstellt.
We consider the problem to evacuate several regions due to river flooding, where sufficient time is given to plan ahead. To ensure a smooth evacuation procedure, our model includes the decision which regions to assign to which shelter, and when evacuation orders should be issued, such that roads do not become congested.
Due to uncertainty in weather forecast, several possible scenarios are simultaneously considered in a robust optimization framework. To solve the resulting integer program, we apply a Tabu search algorithm based on decomposing the problem into better tractable subproblems. Computational experiments on random instances and an instance based on Kulmbach, Germany, data show considerable improvement compared to an MIP solver provided with a strong starting solution.
Zeitreihen und Modalanalyse
(1987)
Die Arbeit ist zu verstehen als ein Teil im großen Projekt der Universität Kaiserslautern, das sich unter dem Namen Technomathematik um die dringend erforderliche Verständigung zwischen Technik und Mathematik bemüht.; Der große Leitfaden war das Buch von Natke: Einführung in Theorie und Praxis der Zeitreihen- und Modalanalyse, Schilderung der wesentlichen dort verwendeten Ideen der indirekten Systemidentifikation sowie des wahrscheinlichkeitstheoretischen und physikalisch-technischen Hintergrundes.
Bei der Programmierung geht es in vielfältiger Form um Identifikation von Individuen: Speicherorte,Datentypen, Werte, Klassen, Objekte, Funktionen u.ä. müssen definierend oder selektierend identifiziert werden.Die Ausführungen zur Identifikation durch Zeigen oder Nennen sind verhältnismäßig kurz gehalten,wogegen der Identifikation durch Umschreiben sehr viel Raum gewidmet ist. Dies hat seinen Grunddarin, daß man zum Zeigen oder Nennen keine strukturierten Sprachformen benötigt, wohl aber zumUmschreiben. Daß die Betrachtungen der unterschiedlichen Formen funktionaler Umschreibungen soausführlich gehalten sind, geschah im Hinblick auf ihre Bedeutung für die Begriffswelt der funktionalen Programmierung. Man hätte zwar die Formen funktionaler Umschreibungen auch im Mosaikstein "Programmzweck versus Programmform" im Kontext des dort dargestellten Konzepts funktionaler Programme behandeln können, aber der Autor meint, daß der vorliegende Aufsatz der angemessenerePlatz dafür sei.
We present a convenient notation for positive/negativeADconditional equations. Theidea is to merge rules specifying the same function by using caseAD, ifAD, matchAD, and letADexpressions.Based on the presented macroADruleADconstruct, positive/negativeADconditional equational specifiADcations can be written on a higher level. A rewrite system translates the macroADruleADconstructsinto positive/negativeADconditional equations.
The Internet has fallen prey to its most successful service, the World-Wide Web. The networksdo not keep up with the demands incurred by the huge amount of Web surfers. Thus, it takeslonger and longer to obtain the information one wants to access via the World-Wide Web.Many solutions to the problem of network congestion have been developed in distributed sys-tems research in general and distributed file and database systems in particular. The introduc-tion of caching and replication strategies has proven to help in many situations and thereforethese techniques are also applied to the WWW. Although most problems and associated solu-tions are known, some circumstances are different with the Web, forcing the adaptation ofknown strategies. This paper gives an overview about these differences and about currentlydeployed, developed, and evaluated solutions.
We have developed a middleware framework for workgroup environments that can support distributed software development and a variety of other application domains requiring document management and change management for distributed projects. The framework enables hypermedia-based integration of arbitrary legacy and new information resources available via a range of protocols, not necessarily known in advance to us as the general framework developers nor even to the environment instance designers. The repositories in which such information resides may be dispersed across the Internet and/or an organizational intranet. The framework also permits a range of client models for user and tool interaction, and applies an extensible suite of collaboration services, including but not limited to multi-participant workflow and coordination, to their information retrievals and updates. That is, the framework is interposed between clients, services and repositories - thus "middleware". We explain how our framework makes it easy to realize a comprehensive collection of workgroup and workflow features we culled from a requirements survey conducted by NASA.
Abstract: Winding number transitions from quantum to classical behavior are studied in the case of the 1+1 dimensional Mottola-Wipf model with the space coordinate on a circle for exploring the possibility of obtaining transitions of second order. The model is also studied as a prototype theory which demonstrates the procedure of such investigations. In the model at hand we find that even on a circle the transitions remain those of first order.
Abstract: Following our earlier investigations we examine the quantum-classical winding number transition in the Abelian-Higgs system. It is demonstrated that the winding number transition in this system is of the smooth second order type in the full range of parameter space. Comparison of the action of classical vortices with that of the sphaleron supports our finding.
In recent years several computational systems and techniques fortheorem proving by analogy have been developed. The obvious prac-tical question, however, as to whether and when to use analogy hasbeen neglected badly in these developments. This paper addresses thisquestion, identifies situations where analogy is useful, and discussesthe merits of theorem proving by analogy in these situations. Theresults can be generalized to other domains.
Using particle methods to solve the Boltzmann equation for rarefied gases numerically, in realistic streaming problems, huge differences in the total number of particles per cell arise. In order to overcome the resulting numerical difficulties the application of a weighted particle concept is well-suited. The underlying idea is to use different particle masses in different cells depending on the macroscopic density of the gas. Discrepance estimates and numerical results are given.
Given a finite set of points in the plane and a forbidden region R, we want to find a point X not an element of int(R), such that the weighted sum to all given points is minimized. This location problem is a variant of the well-known Weber Problem, where we measure the distance by polyhedral gauges and allow each of the weights to be positive or negative. The unit ball of a polyhedral gauge may be any convex polyhedron containing the origin. This large class of distance functions allows very general (practical) settings - such as asymmetry - to be modeled. Each given point is allowed to have its own gauge and the forbidden region R enables us to include negative information in the model. Additionally the use of negative and positive weights allows to include the level of attraction or dislikeness of a new facility. Polynomial algorithms and structural properties for this global optimization problem (d.c. objective function and a non-convex feasible set) based on combinatorial and geometrical methods are presented.
We introduce a class of models for time series of counts which include INGARCH-type models as well as log linear models for conditionally Poisson distributed data. For those processes, we formulate simple conditions for stationarity and weak dependence with a geometric rate. The coupling argument used in the proof serves as a role model for a similar treatment of integer-valued time series models based on other types of thinning operations.
By means of the limit and jump relations of classical potential theory the framework of a wavelet approach on a regular surface is established. The properties of a multiresolution analysis are verified, and a tree algorithm for fast computation is developed based on numerical integration. As applications of the wavelet approach some numerical examples are presented, including the zoom-in property as well as the detection of high frequency perturbations. At the end we discuss a fast multiscale representation of the solution of (exterior) Dirichlet's or Neumann's boundary-value problem corresponding to regular surfaces.
This work is dedicated to the wavelet modelling of regional and temporal variations of the Earth's gravitational potential observed by GRACE. In the first part, all required mathematical tools and methods involving spherical wavelets are introduced. Then we apply our method to monthly GRACE gravity fields. A strong seasonal signal can be identified, which is restricted to areas, where large-scale redistributions of continental water mass are expected. This assumption is analyzed and verified by comparing the time series of regionally obtained wavelet coefficients of the gravitational signal originated from hydrology models and the gravitational potential observed by GRACE. The results are in good agreement to previous studies and illustrate that wavelets are an appropriate tool to investigate regional time-variable effects in the gravitational field.
