Modelling of the Universe : Simulation of the GPS (The Global Positioning System)
2007
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2007 – Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad ParAbel is a project at Agder University College aims at mathematics and physics on Internet. One of the sub projects named SimReal [2] (Simulation in ‘Realfag’), which currently aims at simulating behaviours and properties of universe for both mathematics and physics studying. This project focuses on simulation of the GPS which is one sub task in SimReal. In this paper, on the one hand, we will set up a GPS simulation model and use it to be a teaching material for learning mathematics and physics. On the other hand, by testing the simulation model among the college students, we will discuss about th…
Overcoming barriers for successfully building an open source community : a case study of Open e-PRIOR, an e-procurement software project at the Europ…
2012
Masteroppgave i informasjonssystemer- Universitetet i Agder, 2012 In 2009, the European Commission (EC) released an e-Procurement platform named e-PRIOR (electronic PRocurement Invoicing and Ordering). To support the objectives defined in 2010 e-Government action plan, an open source-version of e-PRIOR, called Open e-PRIOR, was also made available. Open e-PRIOR is a key enabler for secure e-Delivery in the e-Procurement domain, and the project aims to foster adoption of e-Procurement at European level. However, Open e-PRIOR is currently managed by the EC, not taking advantage of its open source nature. Besides, the EC also realized that the Open e-PRIOR project is of value both across secto…
An environmental forensic procedure to analyse anthropogenic pressures of urban origin on surface water of protected coastal agro-environmental wetla…
2013
Detection and spatial distribution of 14 drugs of abuse and 17 pharmaceuticals in surface waters was investigated to determine transport hydrological connectivity between urban, agriculture and natural environments. Solid-phase extraction and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry was applied to all samples. To determine spatial incidence of contaminants, analytical results of target compounds were georeferenced and integrated into a geographical information systems structure together with layers of municipal population, location of sewage water treatment plants and irrigation channels and sectors. The methodology was applied to L'Albufera Natural Park in Valencia (Spain). A total o…
SPIE Proceedings Vol. 8538 Earth Resources and Environmental Remote Sensing/GIS Applications III
2012
These proceedings contain 53 papers that were presented at the SPIE Conference “Earth Resources and Environmental Remote Sensing/GIS Applications” (Conference 8538A) formerly known under the title ‘Remote Sensing for Environmental Monitoring, GIS Applications, and Geology’. The Conference took place in Edinburgh, United Kingdom from 24 September to 27 September 2012. It was the twelfth Conference with this topic after its inauguration in Toulouse, France, in 2001. The Conference sessions with presented papers and interactive posters were grouped into the following themes: Processing Methodologies, Hazard Mitigation Geologic Application, Processing Methodologies, Infrastructures and Urban Ar…
Paperless survey? New methodological approaches to archaeological fieldwork, the case of Navarrés (València)
2014
El trabajo que presentamos se ha desarrollado en el marco del proyecto NSF “The Emergence of Coupled Natural and Human Landscapes in the Western Mediterranean” en el área comprendida por la actual comarca de La Canal de Navarres, situada al suroeste de la provincia de Valencia. Este espacio se convierte en una de las áreas elegidas para un programa de recogida de datos centrado en la prospección sistemática “off site “. En las jornadas “Dando sentido a la prospección arqueológica” nos centraremos en los aspectos metodológicos que hemos desarrollado para llevar a cabo el trabajo de campo. Esta ha sido la primera vez que hemos realizado una prospección arqueológica, en una zona completamente …
La Meseta de Requena-Utiel entre los siglos II-I a.C.: La Romanización del territorio ibérico de Kelin
2013
En la presente Tesis Doctoral se aborda el tema general de la romanización de los pueblos ibéricos en la fachada mediterránea peninsular a partir del caso concreto del territorio de una ciudad ibérica, Kelin – Los Villares (Caudete de las Fuentes, València). Dicha ciudad, ocupada entre los siglos VII-I a.C., sabemos que al menos desde el s. V a.C. organizó un territorio a su alrededor, con unos límites muy similares a los de la actual comarca de Requena-Utiel. Ha sido excavada desde los años 90 desde el Servicio de Investigación Prehistórica de la Diputación de Valencia y la Universitat de València, siendo la directora de la presente tesis la directora de la última fase de excavación, Consu…

Modélisation des objets historiques selon la fonction, l'espace et le temps pour l'étude des dynamiques urbaines dans la longue durée
2010
The proposed principle for understanding the urban fabric is based on considering the town as a set of complex objects, taking a systemic approach. The town system used to study the urban fabric over large time spans is composed of three sub-systems relating to historical objects from the level of the excavation to that of the former urban space: function (social use), space (location, surface area and morphology) and time (dating, duration and chronology). The historical object is the analytical unit of the space studied. The purposed model allows urban changes to be observed. The originality of this procedure lies in its approach whereby it is possible to start not from the mapping of a p…
La valeur économique des paysages des villes périurbanisées
2007
La recherche présentée ici propose une méthode de description et d’évaluation des caractéristiques d’un paysage qui combine la géographie quantitative et l’économétrie des modèles hédoniques. Un modèle géographique produit des indices caractérisant les paysages à partir d’une reconstitution de la vue depuis le sol, en tenant compte des effets du relief et des masques que les objets hauts opposent à la vue. Il décrit la quantité de paysage vu par un observateur au niveau du sol en la répartissant entre 13 types d’occupations du sol. Les variables produites par le modèle géographique sont utilisées dans des régressions hédoniques qui permettent d’évaluer l’impact des attributs paysagers ain…
