Entwurf, Implementierung und Evaluation eines modularen Agentensystems zur energieoptimierten Steuerung eines logistischen Automatisierungsprozesses
(2009-11-13)
In dieser Arbeit wird ein modulares Agentensystem entworfen und auf einer marktüblichen PC-basierten SPS-Steuerung implementiert, welches in der Lage ist, den logistischen Anlagenteil eines Hybriden Prozessmodells abhängig von einem dynamischen Energiepreis zu steuern.
Dies wird durch die Rekonfiguration und energetische Optimierung der Funktionen einzelner Module auf Grundlage eines Umweltmodells durch Softwareagenten erreicht. Dieses Umweltmodell wird zunächst in verschiedenen Diagrammen der objektorientierten ...

Small and Closed vs. Large and Open: Some Lessons from Comparing Cuban to Colombian Agricultural Development
(Department of Organic Food Quality and Food Culture at the University of Kassel, Germany and Federation of German Scientists (VDW), 2015-03-12)
Comparing the experiences of selected Latin America and the Caribbean countries and their trajectories over the past 15 years offers rich insights into the dynamics and causes for not meeting the 2015 MDGs. They also offer clues for post-MDG strategies. Central to achieving sustainable growth are government policies able to support small and medium-sized farms and peasants, as they are crucial for the achievement of several goals, centrally: to achieve food security; to provide a sound and stable rural environment ...

The Khaling Rai live in a remote area of the mountain region of Nepal. Subsistence farming is central to their livelihood strategy, the sustainability of which was examined in this study. The sustainable livelihood approach was identified as a suitable theoretical framework to analyse the assets of the Khaling Rai. A baseline study was conducted using indicators to assess the outcome of the livelihood strategies under the three pillars of sustainability – economic, social and environmental. Relationships between key ...

Cultivating the City: Infrastructures of abundance in urban Brazil
(Department of Organic Food Quality and Food Culture at the University of Kassel, Germany and Federation of German Scientists (VDW), 2015-05-20)
Urban agriculture, if it is to become integrated into the city, needs landscape architectural thinking in order to be woven into the larger urban fabric. Thinking at the scale of ecosystems running through a city creates a framework for spatial change; thinking in assemblages of stakeholders and actors creates a framework for social investment and development. These overlapping frameworks are informed and perhaps even defined by the emergent field of landscape democracy. Cultivating the City is a prospective design ...

Techno-ökonomische Gesamtbewertung heterogener Maßnahmen zur Verlängerung der Tagesreichweite von batterieelektrischen Fahrzeugen
(2018-04-11)
Batterieelektrische Fahrzeuge (BEV) sind eine wichtige Option zur Senkung von Treibhausgasemissionen und lokaler Emissionen, deren weiteren Verbreitung allerdings ökonomische und technische Barrieren entgegenstehen. Technische Barrieren sind vor allem eine zu geringe elektrische Fahrzeugreichweite sowie eine als nicht ausreichend empfundene Ladeinfrastrukturverfügbarkeit. Diese technischen Barrieren sind als komplementär anzusehen, da sie beide direkt die Tagesfahrleistungen eines Nutzers beeinflussen, die maximal ...
