▼ This paper analyses the law of redundancy in New Zealand, from its historical background through to current developments which have impacted, or are likely to impact on its interpretation and application in the future. The paper specifically questions whether current substantive and procedural requirements for redundancy, as construed by the Courts, are in keeping with the intentions underpinning the Employment Relations Act 2000 (ERA), in particular, whether they fit with the principle of good faith and whether they provide an equal balance between the rights of the employer and the rights of the employees. It focuses on the common law that has developed around redundancy issues largely under the personal grievance regime.
In order to consider accurately these issues, the paper initially outlines the history of redundancy law, key legislative concepts and the New Zealand environment. Following this, discussion on both the procedural and substantive elements of redundancy law is outlined. It is through this analysis that symptomatic issues within each aspect of the current law are addressed and appropriately explored. Finally, new governmental and legislative developments are discussed prior to a broad conclusion being established. This addresses the key questions outlined above, as well as the supplementary issues identified within this paper. The conclusion advocates that redundancy law in New Zealand is in need of change and that the best method to achieve this is through legislation.

▼ Human movements are variable, even in well-learned, controlled tasks of repeated movements. Simple models of repeated movements help us understand how the control of movements and the inherent noise in a system interact and influence the measurable variability in the outcome movements (the task). Here, we compare contemporary models for correcting repeated movements in the presence of noise, with a redundant goal (i.e. one that has many solutions) in the two dimensional task space. We show that the models share a similar structure, and explain their differences in noise processes. We compare simulations of model behavior to data from a previously published reaching task, to understand what features of the models we need in general. Ultimately, our simulations show that the correction or controller with free parameters in two independent directions is necessary to describe two-dimensional tasks in general. However, we cannot conclude in favor of one model over the other, because simulations also show that either of the different noise processes is sufficient.

▼ Mestrado em Engenharia Informática
In an era marked by the so-called technological revolution, where computing power has become a critical production factor, just like manpower was in the industrial revolution, very quickly this dispersal of computing power for numerous facilities and sites became unsustainable, both economically as well in terms of maintenance and management. This constringency led to the need of adopting new strategies for the provision of information systems equally capable but in a more consolidated way, while also increasing the desired levels of the classic set of information assurances: availability, confidentiality, authenticity and integrity. At this point enters a topic not as new as it may seem, virtualization, which after two decades of oblivion presents itself as the best candidate to solve the problem technology faces today. Throughout this thesis, it will be explained what this technology represents and what approach should be taken in the evolution of a systems architecture classical model into a model based in optimization, high availability, redundancy and consolidation of information communications and technology, using networks and systems virtualization. A number of good management principles to adopt will also be taken into account to ensure quality standards in providing services, culminating in a practical application of this model to the infrastructure of the company Metro do Porto, SA. Briefly, this document can almost be classified as a step by step manual for the understanding and implementation of this model, transversal to any infrastructure without extremely particular needs or constraints which derail conversion.
Numa era marcada pela chamada revolução tecnológica, em que o poder de computação se tornou um factor crítico de produção, tal como a mão-de-obra o foi na revolução industrial, rapidamente esta dispersão do poder de computação por inúmeros equipamentos e locais tornou-se insustentável, quer ao nível económico como de manutenção e gestão.
Este constrangimento levou à necessidade de adopção de novas estratégias para a disponibilização de sistemas de informação igualmente capazes mas de forma mais consolidada, procurando simultaneamente aumentar os níveis desejáveis do clássico paradigma dos factores a garantir na informação: disponibilidade, confidencialidade, autenticidade e integridade. É neste ponto que entra um tema não tão novo como parece, a virtualização, que após duas décadas de esquecimento se apresenta como o maior candidato à resolução do problema que a tecnologia enfrenta. Ao longo desta tese, será explicado o que esta tecnologia representa e qual a abordagem a ter na evolução de um modelo clássico de arquitectura de sistemas para um modelo baseado em optimização, alta disponibilidade, redundância e consolidação de tecnologias de informação e comunicações com recurso à virtualização de redes e sistemas. Serão igualmente tidos em conta um número de bons princípios de gestão a adoptar de forma a garantir parâmetros de qualidade na…

Using Selective Redundancy and Testing to Optimize Learning from Multimedia Lessons.

▼ Multimedia learning refers to learning from a combination of words and images. In the present dissertation, a multimedia lesson is defined as an animated, narrated educational video that depicts a scientific process – a format of instructional material becoming increasingly common in online, hybrid, and traditional classrooms. The overarching goal of the present research was to investigate how to optimize learning from multimedia lessons using two related theories of multimedia learning (the cognitive theory of multimedia learning [CTML], Mayer, 2009; the cognitive-affective theory of learning with multimedia [CATLM], Moreno, 2006) as guiding frameworks. A secondary goal was to explore students' metacognitive beliefs regarding the efficacy of various types of multimedia presentation conditions for learning. In one body of research, we attempted to strike a balance between the positive and negative effects of including seductive details in a multimedia presentation (i.e., the tendency of tangentially related facts to engage interest but at the cost of impairing learning) by varying the level of redundancy between the narration and on-screen text. While inclusion of identical on-screen text has been shown to impair multimedia learning, we previously found that inclusion of a certain level of non-identical on-screen text could actually increase learning (Yue, Bjork, & Bjork, 2013). We utilized this finding by presenting seductive details with identical on-screen text and key points with non-identical on-screen text, thereby inducing shallow processing of the former information and deeper processing of the latter information. Our results indicate that such a strategy leads to an optimal presentation scheme – that is, one in which seductive details can be presented during the lesson to engage students' interest but without a cost to their learning of key information. In another body of research, we focused on optimizing processing during restudy, rather than during initial encoding. After watching a multimedia lesson for the first time, participants practiced retrieving either the auditory modality while experiencing the visual modality, or vice versa. Although not leading to greater learning than re-presenting the intact lesson, this type of retrieval practice did result in equivalent learning, indicating that students can engage in such practice without harm to their performance on a later exam when needed (e.g., should they only have access to an instructor's slides but not the accompanying narration from a lecture). In a third body of research, we explored potential indirect benefits of testing on learning from multimedia lessons. After experiencing a lesson, students either read half the facts from the lesson or took a test on those facts, after which they studied either the same lesson again or an entirely different multimedia lesson. Taking the intervening test, as compared to restudying facts, led students to make more effective use of a second study opportunity (as reflected in superior final test…

▼ Computational grids are some of the largest computer systems in existence today. Unfortunately they are also, in many cases, the least reliable. This research examines the use of
redundancy with permutation as a method of improving reliability in computational grid applications. Three primary avenues are explored - development of a new
redundancy model, the Replication and Permutation Paradigm (RPP) for computational grids, development of grid simulation software for testing RPP against other
redundancy methods and, finally, running a program on a live grid using RPP. An important part of RPP involves distributing data and tasks across the grid in Latin Square fashion. Two theorems and subsequent proofs regarding Latin Squares are developed. The theorems describe the changing position of symbols between the rows of a standard Latin Square. When a symbol is missing because a column is removed the theorems provide a basis for determining the next row and column where the missing symbol can be found. Interesting in their own right, the theorems have implications for
redundancy. In terms of the
redundancy model, the theorems allow one to state the maximum makespan in the face of missing computational hosts when using Latin Square
redundancy. The simulator software was developed and used to compare different data and task distribution schemes on a simulated grid. The software clearly showed the advantage of running RPP, which resulted in faster completion times in the face of computational host failures. The Latin Square method also fails gracefully in that jobs complete with massive node failure while increasing makespan. Finally an Inductive Logic Program (ILP) for pharmacophore search was executed, using a Latin Square
redundancy methodology, on a Condor grid in the Dahlem Lab at the University of Louisville Speed School of Engineering. All jobs completed, even in the face of large numbers of randomly generated computational host failures.

▼ Systematic reviews aim to produce repeatable, unbiased, and comprehensive answers to clinical questions. Systematic reviews are an essential component of modern evidence based medicine, however due to the risks of omitting relevant research they are highly time consuming to create and are largely conducted manually. This thesis presents a novel framework for partial automation of systematic review literature searches. We exploit the ubiquitous multi-stage screening process by training the classifier using annotations made by reviewers in previous screening stages. Our approach has the benefit of integrating seamlessly with the existing screening process, minimising disruption to users.
Ideally, classification models for systematic reviews should be easily interpretable by users. We propose a novel, rule based algorithm for use with our framework. A new approach for identifying redundant associations when generating rules is also presented. The proposed approach to redundancy seeks to both exclude redundant specialisations of existing rules (those with additional terms in their antecedent), as well as redundant generalisations (those with fewer terms in their antecedent). We demonstrate the ability of the proposed approach to improve the usability of the generated rules. The proposed rule based algorithm is evaluated by simulated application to several existing systematic reviews. Workload savings of up to 10% are demonstrated.
There is an increasing demand for systematic reviews related to a variety of clinical disciplines, such as diagnosis. We examine reviews of diagnosis and contrast them against more traditional systematic reviews of treatment. We demonstrate existing challenges such as target class heterogeneity and high data imbalance are even more pronounced for this class of reviews. The described algorithm accounts for this by seeking to label subsets of non-relevant studies with high precision, avoiding the need to generate a high recall model of the minority class.

▼ This study explores the personal meanings of redundancy for professionals and managers who experienced being made redundant during a period of economic prosperity and have since moved on with their lives and careers. Managers and professionals made redundant between two and seven years prior to the study were interviewed about their experiences of redundancy. The respondent group was made up of seven females and five males from a range of professions and industries. None of the respondents experienced long periods of unemployment or financial hardship as a consequence of their redundancy.
Thematic narrative analysis was used to analyse the data and develop an interpretive life history model of being made redundant and moving on with life. A conceptual framework drawing on ideas from research into rites of passage and identity theory was developed to explain respondents‟ psychological adaptation to their experience of redundancy.
Respondents‟ narratives show that experiencing redundancy was a significant life event that altered their world view and career path. Respondents‟ redundancy experiences were interpreted as a status passage transition and categorised as a coercive separation rite of passage. The life history model of redundancy developed from the respondents‟ narratives suggests that the psychological experiences of adapting to redundancy have several phases. Respondents adapted to redundancy by reframing the personal experience of being made redundant and by shifting towards a more transactional mental model of work. This study concludes that redundancy can be a significant life event in the absence of unemployment and can lead to long term changes to professional and managerial workers relationships with employers and to the significance of work within their lives.

▼ The exceptional rise in usages of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets has contributed to a massive increase in wireless network trac both Cellular (3G/4G/LTE) and WiFi. The unprecedented growth in wireless network trac not only strain the battery of the mobile devices but also bogs down the last-hop wireless access links. Interestingly, a signicant part of this data trac exhibits high level of
redundancy in them due to repeated access of popular contents in the web. Hence, a good amount of research both in academia and in industries has studied, analyzed and designed diverse systems that attempt to eliminate
redundancy in the network trac. Several of the existing Trac
Redundancy Elimination (TRE) solutions either does not improve last-hop wireless access links or involves inecient use of compute resources from resource-constrained mobile devices. In this research, we propose TailoredRE, a personalized cloud-based trac
redundancy elimination system. The main objective of TailoredRE is to tailor TRE mechanism such that TRE is performed against selected applications rather than application agnostically, thus improving eciency by avoiding caching of unnecessary data chunks. In our system, we leverage the rich resources of the cloud to conduct TRE by ooading most of the operational cost from the smartphones or mobile devices to its clones (proxies) available in the cloud. We cluster the multiple individual user clones in the cloud based on the factors of connectedness among users such as usage of similar applications, common interests in specic web contents etc., to improve the eciency of caching in the cloud. This thesis encompasses motivation, system design along with detailed analysis of the results obtained through simulation and real implementation of TailoredRE system.

▼ This study investigated the effects of two onscreen text options, interactive transcripts and key-point annotations, on the learning performance of English as a second language students by using open educational resources instructional videos. A pretest-posttest experimental design was used. Participants saw the same instructional videos in one of four randomly assigned treatment groups: 1) no onscreen text support option; 2) interactive transcript; 3) key-point annotations; and 4) both interactive transcript and key-point annotations. Results of a 2 X 2 ANCOVA indicated that the effect of either interactive transcripts or key-point annotations was dependent primarily on the pedagogy of a set of instructional videos. Key-point annotations, but not interactive transcripts, significantly affected students learning performance when the video instructor spoke clearly and used real-life examples. Key-point annotations, interactive transcripts, or both did not significantly affect students learning performance when video instruction lacked practical examples and used audio narration that was too fast. Review of participants' opinion data indicated that learning experiences were affected primarily by learner control through video interactivity, video instructional design, and limited internet access.

▼ Maintenance management is to design, operate, and maintain the reliability and availability of assets at a required performance level using the lowest possible cost. The standby redundancy is one of the means to achieve highly reliable system with less dependable units. As commonly used performance indicator, the reliability and availability should be precisely analysed for a repairable standby system. The reliability of a standby system is mainly studied in the framework of lifetime approach. Most existing models are developed for a two-unit standby system and a Kout- of-N system with identical units. The system units are assumed to be binary-state and the failures of system units are modelled as sudden failures. The deteriorations of units are modelled as time-dependent failure rate and are assumed to be independent. In addition, most of the existing models do not consider maintenance is carried out on the system. In reality, the deteriorations and the resultant failures in real-world systems are often interactive with each other. The systems normally experience several, often imperfect, restorations before a complete renewal. Therefore, the study of different repair policies, such as opportunistic and individual policies, in multi-unit systems need also be investigated. To address the problem, the reliability and availability models for a 2-out-of-3 cold standby system will be studied in a multi-state system reliability framework. A multistate multi-path failure mode is proposed to model the interactive deteriorations. The concept of repair matrix will be adopted to model the effect of unit level restorations on system reliability. The availabilities under individual repair policy and opportunistic repair policy will be developed.

▼ Forest measurements are inherently spatial. Soil productivity varies spatially at fine scales and tree growth responds by changes in growth-age trajectories. Measuring spatial variability is a perquisite to more effective analysis and statistical testing.
In this study, current techniques of partial
redundancy analysis and constrained cluster analysis are used to explore how spatial variables determine structure in a managed regular spaced plantation. We will test for spatial relationships in the data and then explore how those spatial relationships are manifested into spatially recognizable structures. The objectives of this research are to measure, test, and map spatial variability in simulated forest plots.
Partial
redundancy analysis was found to be a good method for detecting the presence or absence of spatial relationships (~95% accuracy). We found that the Calinski-Harabasz method consistently performed better at detecting the correct number of clusters when compared to several other methods. While there is still more work that can be done we believe that constrained cluster analysis has promising applications in forestry and that the Calinski-Harabasz criterion will be most useful.

▼ Spatial analysis is of primary importance in forestry. Many factors that affect tree development have spatial components and can be sampled across geographic space. Some examples of spatially structured factors that affect tree growth include soil composition, water availability, and growing space. Our goals for this dissertation were to test the efficacy of spatial analysis tools in a forestry setting and make recommendations for their use. Reliable spatial analysis tools will lead to more effective statistical testing and can lead to useful mapping of spatial patterns.
The data for this project is from simulated even aged loblolly pine stands (Pinus taeda L.). These simulated stands are grown at regular spacing and we impose a range of parameters on the stands to simulate many possible scenarios. In chapter 3 of this dissertation we perform a sensitivity analysis to determine if our methods are suitable for further research and applications. In chapter 4 we perform our analysis on more realistic data generated by a spatially-explicit stand simulator, PTAEDA 4.1.
In chapter 3 we performed a statistical simulation of plantation stands without effects of competition and mortality. We used
redundancy analysis (RDA) to quantify spatial variability, partial
redundancy analysis (pRDA) to test for spatial dependence, and spatially constrained cluster analysis to map soil productivity. Our results indicated that RDA and pRDA are reliable methods and future evaluation is appropriate. The results from the spatially constrained cluster analysis were less clear. The success or failure of the clustering algorithm could not be disentangled from the success or failure of the selection criterion used to predict the number of clusters. Further investigations should address this concern.
In chapter 4 we used PTAEDA 4.1, a loblolly stand simulator, to simulate a range of site conditions and produce data that we could use for analysis. The results showed that RDA and pRDA were not reliable methods and ready for the field. Spatially constrained cluster analysis performed poorly when more realistic data was used and because of this further use was uncertain. It was clear from the results that levels of variation and spatial pattern complexity of microsites influenced the success rate of the methods. Both RDA and pRDA were less successful with higher levels of variation in the data and with increased spatial pattern complexity.
In chapter 5 we related the coefficient of variation from our simulations in (chapters 3 and 4) to two sets of real plot data, including a clonal set and open pollinated set. We then implemented a spatial analysis of the real plot data. Our spatial analysis results of the two comparable data sets were unaffected by genetic variability indicating that the primary source of variability across plots appears to be soil and other factors, not genetic related.

▼ Predictions of the Intersensory
Redundancy Hypothesis (IRH) state that early in development information presented to a single sense modality (unimodal) selectively recruits attention to and enhances perceptual learning of modality-specific properties of stimulation at the expense of amodal properties, while information presented redundantly across two or more modalities (bimodal) results in enhanced perceptual learning of amodal properties. The present study explored these predictions during prenatal development by assessing bobwhite quail embryos’ detection of pitch, a modality-specific property, under conditions of unimodal and redundant bimodal stimulation. Chicks’ postnatal auditory preferences between the familiarized call and the same call with altered pitch were assessed following hatching. Unimodally-exposed chicks significantly preferred the familiarized call over the pitch-modified call, whereas bimodally-exposed chicks did not prefer the familiar call over the pitch-modified call. Results confirm IRH predictions, demonstrating unimodal exposure facilitates learning of modality-specific properties, whereas redundant bimodal stimulation interferes with learning of modality-specific properties.

▼ As technology continues to scale to smaller geometries and newer dimensions (3-D), with increasingly complex manufacturing processes, the ability to reliably manufacture 100% defect-free circuitry becomes a significant challenge. While implementing additional circuitry to improve yield is economically justifiable, this thesis addresses the cost of defect tolerance by providing lower cost solutions or alternatively more defect tolerance for the same cost in state-of-the-art ICs, including three-dimensional ICs (3-D ICs). Conventional defect tolerance techniques involve incorporating
redundancy into the design. This thesis introduces novel designs to maximize the utility of spare elements with minimal circuitry overhead, thereby improving the yield. One idea proposed is Selective Row Partitioning (SRP), a technique which allows a single spare column to be used to repair multiple defective cells in multiple columns. This is done by selectively decoding the row address bits when generating the select signals for the column multiplexers. This logically segments the spare column allowing it to replace different columns in different partitions of the row address space. All the chips are identical, but fuses are used to customize the row decoding circuitry on a chip-by-chip basis. An implementation procedure and results are presented which show improvement in overall yield at a minimal overhead cost. Moreover, new yield-enhancing design techniques for 3-D ICs are introduced. When assembling a 3-D IC, there are several degrees of freedom including which die are stacked together, in what order, and with what rotational symmetry. This thesis describes strategies for exploiting these degrees of freedom to reduce the cost and complexity of implementing defect tolerance. One strategy is to enable asymmetric repair capability within a 3-D memory stack by exploiting the degree of freedom that the order of the die in the stack can be selected. This technique optimizes the number of fuses, and in some cases, the number of spares as well, required to implement defect tolerance. Another innovative technique is to exploit rotational symmetry of the dies to do implicit reconfiguration to implement defect tolerance. Results show that leakage power and performance overhead for defect tolerance can be significantly reduced by this technique.

▼ Modern electronic machines are powered by the integrated-circuit (IC), a semiconductor device consisting of compact electronic circuits on a silicon substrate. ICs can contain over a billion fundamental computing elements (transistors) that are connected by a network of metal wires called interconnects. Presently, interconnects constitute a primary bottleneck in achieving required IC performance. One of the major hurdles towards achieving good interconnect performance is electromigration (EM), a physical wear-out mechanism that occurs in metal wires carrying electrical current. EM is projected to limit the performance in future generations of ICs, especially for the wires carrying unidirectional (DC) currents, and is becoming a growing concern in on-chip interconnects across applications ranging from mobile computing to automotive domains. EM results in redistribution of metal atoms in interconnects that may result in the formation of either voids (empty spaces inside the wire) or extrusions (metal accumulation into the dielectric), and for modern copper-based interconnects, experimental works have observed that failure happens typically through the formation and growth of voids. For modern interconnects carrying large current densities, EM-induced voids can cause a resistance increase in the wire, rendering a wire EM-mortal. The resistance increase in these mortal interconnects can potentially result in circuit performance failure within the lifetime of a product. The classical methods for EM circuit analysis that are used in the industry to design EM-safe ICs do not capture the reality of EM physics in the realm of modern copper-based interconnects. IC designers use simple, deterministic, empirical EM models and there is a significant gap between such empirical models and the physics-based models that accurately capture the effect of EM in interconnects. The focus of this thesis is to attempt to reduce this gap by combining the two types of models efficiently, capturing the essence of physics-based models into the IC design, thereby enabling the design of EM-robust IC in future technologies. Unlike the classical EM analysis methods that rely on determining failure by extrapolating the EM characteristics of isolated single wires to IC operating conditions, the approach described in this thesis captures the circuit context and uses system failure rather than single-wire failure as the criterion for determining the lifetime of a circuit. The first part of the thesis proposes a statistical framework to evaluate the circuit performance degradation in on-chip wires through circuit level analysis. Typical on-chip power grids are inherently robust to EM due to redundancies in the interconnect network structure. In these grids, where interconnects typically carry unidirectional currents, the traditional approach to EM analysis is based on the weakest link model, whereby a single wire failure causes the grid to fail. It is shown here that the power grid can maintain supply integrity even under multiple elemental failures,…

▼ Collective redundancies influence entire society and working life. The first methodapplied in all sectors, especially during the stage of recession, is collective redundancies.Proliferation of collective redundancies create inconsistent and insecure environment in labormarket, thus national economy suffers. On the other hand, redundant workers are faced withthe problem of not finding jobs for a long time so the members of their family whom theseworkers are obliged to look after are affected negatively. Poverty increases along withunemployment; tendencies to commit a crime are observed and this creates social unrest.Because of these reasons, rules of collective redundancies are regulated with specificprocedures in laws. Accordingly, employers who want to apply collective redundancies areobliged to inform some institutions, negotiate with employees’ representatives and prepare asocial plan. Besides employers are stipulated to try some other methods before termination asit is the last resort. One of the methods to apply before collective redundancies is to putflexible working types into effect for some time. In this way both collective redundancies areavoided and enterprises overcome economic distress easily.(Toplu işçi çıkarma, tüm toplumu ve çalışma hayatını etkilemektedir. Özellikleekonomik kriz dönemlerinde, tüm sektörlerde ilk başvurulan yöntem toplu işçi çıkarmaolmaktadır. Toplu işçi çıkarmaların yaygınlaşması işgücü piyasasında istikrarsız ve güvensizbir ortam oluşturmakta, dolayısıyla ülke ekonomisi de zarar görmektedir. Öte yandan iştençıkarılan işçiler uzun süre iş bulamama sıkıntısıyla karşı karşıya kalmakta, bu durumdanişçilerin bakmakla yükümlü oldukları aile üyeleri de olumsuz etkilenmektedir. Yine işsizliklebirlikte yoksulluk oranı ve suç işleme eğiliminin artış göstermesi nedeniyle, toplumsalhuzursuzluk baş göstermektedir. Bu sebeple kanunlarda toplu işçi çıkarma kuralları farklıusullerle düzenlenmekte, toplu işçi çıkarmak isteyen işverene çeşitli kurumlara bildirimdebulunma, işçi temsilcileriyle görüşme yapma ve sosyal plan hazırlama gibi yükümlülükleröngörülmektedir. Bunun yanı sıra feshe son çare olarak başvurulması gerektiğinden hareketlekanunlarda fesihten önce birtakım yöntemlerin denenmesi şart koşulmaktadır. Toplu işçiçıkarmadan önce başvurulması gereken yollardan birini de belirli bir süre esnek çalışmabiçimlerinin uygulamaya konulması oluşturmaktadır. Bu sayede hem toplu işçi çıkarmanınönüne geçilmekte hem de işletmelerin ekonomik sıkıntıyı daha hafif bir şekilde atlatmasısağlanmaktadır.)

▼ The main interest of this thesis consists of the study and implementation of postprocessors to adapt the toolpath generated by a Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) system to a complex robotic workcell of eight joints, devoted to the rapid prototyping of 3D CAD-defined products. It consists of a 6R industrial manipulator mounted on a linear track and synchronized with a rotary table. To accomplish this main objective, previous work is required. Each task carried out entails a methodology, objective and partial results that complement each other, namely:
- It is described the architecture of the workcell in depth, at both displacement and joint-rate levels, for both direct and inverse resolutions. The conditioning of the Jacobian matrix is described as kinetostatic performance index to evaluate the vicinity to singular postures. These ones are analysed from a geometric point of view.
- Prior to any machining, the additional external joints require a calibration done in situ, usually in an industrial environment. A novel Non-contact Planar Constraint Calibration method is developed to estimate the external joints configuration parameters by means of a laser displacement sensor.
- A first control is originally done by means of a fuzzy inference engine at the displacement level, which is integrated within the postprocessor of the CAM software.
- Several
Redundancy Resolution Schemes (RRS) at the joint-rate level are compared for the configuration of the postprocessor, dealing not only with the additional joints (intrinsic
redundancy) but also with the
redundancy due to the symmetry on the milling tool (functional
redundancy).
- The use of these schemes is optimized by adjusting two performance criterion vectors related to both singularity avoidance and maintenance of a preferred reference posture, as secondary tasks to be done during the path tracking. Two innovative fuzzy inference engines actively adjust the weight of each joint in these tasks.

▼ Touch screen technology is rapidly increasing, and at the same time there is a shifting, aging population. As the percentage of the population over the age of 65 increases, adults of the age group are adopting smartphones and tablets more now than ever before. Although older adults are adopting touch screen devices, they face many challenges when interacting with said devices, such as not knowing how to navigate between pages, not knowing where to click for an action to occur, and the touch screen interface is often too sensitive or the buttons are not big enough. Furthermore, the challenges of aging, specifically sensory and cognitive decline resulting from aging affect comprehension and spacial processing, which are critical when navigating through an interface.
The purpose of this thesis was to better understand
redundancy effect applied to females and males between the ages of 65 and 84. There were two tasks of different lengths, and for each task there were two designs. The first design included text only buttons, and the second included symbol + text buttons, the latter being the redundant interface. Quantitative results yielded no significant results for time for either task. Qualitative results included ratings for ease of navigation, general satisfaction, overall understanding, and button design preference. Preferences between text only buttons were statistically significant; for the task of online grocery shopping and booking a cruise, females prefer text only buttons and males prefer symbol + text buttons (p = 0.0068 and p = 0.0024). Although button design had no significance in completing a task, significant preference results indicate likelihood to return to a given website. Furthermore, although quantitative results were not significant, gender did influence average times per task and average ratings across categories. Further research could be conducted with larger sample sizes, other forms of
redundancy, and larger tasks, however it is evident through this experiment that gender has an impact on how adults between 65 and 84 perceive and navigate through touch screen interfaces given the constraints of the symbols used, ages, and task designs. Therefore, concluding recommendations based on the qualitative data suggest that designers should create gender specific interfaces based on gender favored websites, or design based on the ability to customize the interface upon entering a website.

▼ Electromigration is re-emerging as a significant problem in modern integrated circuits (IC). Especially in power-grids, due to shrinking wire widths and increasing current densities, there is little or no margin left between the predicted EM stress and that allowed by the EM design rules. Statistical Electromigration Budgeting estimates the reliability of the grid by considering it as a series system. However, a power grid with its many parallel paths has much inherent redundancy. In this work, we propose a new model to estimate the MTF and reliability of the power grid under the influence of EM, which accounts for these redundancies. To implement the mesh model, we also develop a framework to estimate the change in statistics of an interconnect as its effective-EM current varies. The results indicate that the series model gives a pessimistic estimate of power grid MTF by a factor of 3-4.

▼ Applied statisticians are often faced with the problem
of dealing with high dimensional data sets when attempting to
describe the variability of a single set of variables, or trying to
predict the variation of one set of variables from another. In this
study, two data reduction methods are described:
Redundancy
Analysis and Partial Least Squares. A hybrid approach developed by
Bougeard et al., (2007) and called Continuum
Redundancy-Partial
Least Squares, is described. All three methods are extended to the
frequency domain in order to allow the lower dimensional subspace
used to describe the variability to change with frequency. To
illustrate and compare the three methods, and their frequency
dependent generalizations, an idealized coupled atmosphere-ocean
model is introduced in state space form. This model provides
explicit expressions for the covariance and cross spectral matrices
required by the various methods; this allows the strengths and
weaknesses of the methods to be identified.

▼ Propõe-se, com este trabalho, estudar numericamente se a redundância cinemática e a redundância de atuação podem ser boas alternativas para que manipuladores planares de cinemática paralela atinjam altas acelerações. Sabe-se que estes tipos de redundância promovem uma redução de singularidades do sistema robótico entre outros benefícios. No entanto, a avaliação comparativa do desempenho dinâmico de manipuladores redundantes ainda é pouco estudada. Este estudo não é trivial pois a redundância significa não somente o aumento do torque disponível, mas também que a inércia do sistema foi aumentada. A avaliação numérica deste trabalho se dará por meio do desenvolvimento de modelos cinemáticos e dinâmicos das possíveis configurações de manipuladores paralelos planares com redundância cinemática e redundância de atuação. Esta avaliação pode ser feita pela comparação entre os manipuladores redundantes e o não-redundante para desenvolver uma mesma trajetória do end-effector. Entretanto, esta avaliação é dependente da trajetória, logo esse trabalho também propõe uma avaliação através de um índice dinâmico em toda a área de trabalho dos manipuladores.
The aim of this work is to study numerically if the kinematic redundancy and the actuation redundancy can be good alternatives for parallel planar manipulators to achieve high accelerations. It is known that types of redundancy promote, among other benefits, a significant reduction in the singularities. However, the evaluation of the redundancy as a good solution to increase the dynamic performance was not studied. This study is not trivial because the redundancy means not only that there is more torque available, but also that the inertia of the system has been considerably increased. Different configurations of the redundant manipulator will be evaluated numerically through kinematic and dynamic models. This evaluation can be performed by the comparison among the non redundant manipulator and the redundant manipulators to execute the same task. This evaluation is task dependent, so this work proposes a dynamic index to desing dynamic maps over the workspace.

▼ The test of digital integrated circuits compares the test pattern results for the device under test (DUT) to the expected test pattern results of a standard reference. The standard response is typically obtained from simulations. The test pattern and response are created and evaluated assuming ideal test conditions. The standard response is normally stored within automated test equipment (ATE). However the use of ATE is the major contributor to the test cost. This thesis explores an alternative strategy to the standard response. As an alternative to the stored standard response, the response is estimated by fault tolerant technique. The purpose of the fault tolerant technique is to eliminate the need of standard response and enable online/real-time testing. Fault tolerant techniques use
redundancy and majority voting to estimate the standard response.
Redundancy in the circuit leads to fault aliasing. Fault aliasing misleads the majority voter in estimating the standard response. The statistics and phenomenon of aliasing are analyzed for benchmark circuits. The impact of fault aliasing on test with respect to coverage, test escape and over-kill is analyzed. The results show that aliasing can be detected with additional test vectors and get 100% fault coverage.

▼ Traditional electric power grids are currently undergoing fundamental changes: Representative examples are the increase in the penetration of volatile and decentralized renewable-energy sources and the emerging distributed energy-storage systems. These changes are not viable without the introduction of automation in grid monitoring and control, which implies the application of information and communication technologies (ICT) in power systems. Consequently, there is a transition toward smart grids. IEEE defines smart grid as follows: "The integration of power, communications, and information technologies for an improved electric power infrastructure serving loads while providing for an ongoing evolution of end-use applications" . The indispensable components of the future smart grids are the communication networks. Many well-established techniques and best practices, applied in other domains, are revisited and applied in new ways. Nevertheless, some gaps still need to be bridged due to the specific requirements of the smart-grid communication networks. Concretely, a challenging objective is to fulfill reliability and low-delay requirements over the wide-area networks, commonly used in smart grids. The main ``playground" for the work presented in this thesis is the smart-grid pilot of the EPFL campus. It is deployed on the operational 20kV medium-voltage distribution network of the campus. At the time of the writing of this thesis, the real-time monitoring of this active distribution network has been already put in place, as the first step toward the introduction of control and protection. The monitoring infrastructure relies on a communication network that is a representative example of the smart-grid communication networks. Keeping all this in mind, in this thesis, the main topic that we focus on, is the assurance of data communication over redundant network-infrastructure in industrial environments. This thesis consists of two parts that correspond to the two aspects of the topic that we address. In the first part of the thesis, we evaluate existing, well-established, technologies and solutions in the context of the EPFL smart-grid pilot. We report on the architecture of the communication network that we built on our campus. In addition, we go into more detail by reporting on some of the characteristics of the devices used in the network. We also discuss security aspects of the MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) which is one of the proposed technologies in the context of smart grids. In the second part of this thesis, we propose new solutions. While designing our campus smart-grid network, we analyzed the imposed requirements and recognized the need for a solution for reliable packet delivery within stringent delay constraints over a redundant network-infrastructure. The existing solutions for exploiting network
redundancy, such as the parallel
redundancy protocol (PRP), are not viable for IP-layer wide-area networks, a key element of emerging smart grids. Other solutions (MPLS-TP for example) do not…

▼ The amount of information that is churned out daily around the world is staggering, and hence, future technological advancements are contingent upon development of scalable acquisition, inference, and communication mechanisms for this massive data. This Ph.D. dissertation draws upon mathematical tools from information theory and statistics to understand the fundamental performance limits of universal compression of this massive data at the packet level using universal compression just above layer 3 of the network when the intermediate network nodes are enabled with the capability of memorizing the previous traffic. Universality of compression imposes an inevitable
redundancy (overhead) to the compression performance of universal codes, which is due to the learning of the unknown source statistics. In this work, the previous asymptotic results about the
redundancy of universal compression are generalized to consider the performance of universal compression at the finite-length regime (that is applicable to small network packets). Further, network compression via memory is proposed as a compression-based solution for the compression of relatively small network packets whenever the network nodes (i.e., the encoder and the decoder) are equipped with memory and have access to massive amounts of previous communication. In a nutshell, network compression via memory learns the patterns and statistics of the payloads of the packets and uses it for compression and reduction of the traffic. Network compression via memory, with the cost of increasing the computational overhead in the network nodes, significantly reduces the transmission cost in the network. This leads to huge performance improvement as the cost of transmitting one bit is by far greater than the cost of processing it.

▼ Abstract
In industry there is a high demand for algorithms that can efficiently solve search problems. Evolutionary Computing (EC) belonging to a class of heuristics are proven to be well suited to solve search problems, especially optimization tasks. They arrived at that location because of their flexibility, scalability and robustness. However, despite their advantages and increasing popularity, there are numerous opened questions in this research area, many of them related to the design and tuning of the algorithms.
A neutral technique called Pseudo Redundancy and related concepts such as Updated Objective Grid (UOG) is proposed to tackle the mentioned problem making an evolutionary approach more suitable for ''real world'' applications while increasing its robustness and efficiency. The proposed UOG technique achieves neutral search by objective function transformation(s) resulting several advantageous features. (a) Simplifies the design of an evolutionary solver by giving population sizing principles and directions to choose the right selection operator. (b) The technique of updated objective grid is adaptive without introducing additional parameters, therefore no parameter tuning required for UOG to adjust it for different environments, introducing robustness. (c) The algorithm of UOG is simple and computationally cheap. (d) It boosts the performance of an evolutionary algorithm on high dimensional (constrained and unconstrained) problems.
The theoretical and experimental results from artificial test problems included in this thesis clearly show the potential of the proposed technique. In order to demonstrate the power of the introduced methods under "real" circumstances, the author additionally designed EAs and performed experiments on two industrial optimization tasks. Although, only one project is detailed in this thesis while the other is referred.
As the main outcome of this thesis, the author provided an evolutionary method to compute (optimal) daily water pump schedules for the water distribution network of Sopron, Hungary. The algorithm is currently working in industry.

▼ An effective risk management strategy should ensure supply continuity by creating resilience. Resilience can be achieved by creating redundancy or increasing flexibility. These concepts have been investigated in literature mainly considering the company’s point of view, while this research moves the focus of resilience to the supply side. Furthermore, flexibility and redundancy are generally investigated as two different and unrelated strategies; in particular, authors studying redundancy practices usually perform quantitative studies in order to identify the optimal quantity to be buffered, while researches on flexibility are more qualitative and descriptive, providing insights into their actual employment and perceived benefits. Consequently, the main research question is: how to jointly evaluate the available strategies to deal with supply risk and make the right decisions that improve supply chain performance? To answer these questions and fill the literature gaps, this research, stemming from a typical risk management framework, proposes an enhanced methodology to deal with the risk related to strategic suppliers, composed of the following four steps: (i) analysis of supply risk, (ii) evaluation of available strategies, (iii) selection of the most suitable strategies and (iv) monitoring and feedback. In particular, the main contributions are in step ii where a descriptive model, that supports the analysis of conjoint effects produced by redundancy and supply flexibility simultaneously adopted, has been developed, and in step iii that proposes a quantitative model that, starting from the relationships identified in the previous step, supports the selection of the most suitable strategy for ensuring supply continuity considering inbound disruptions.
The current financial crisis that has been slowing down the global economy and the increasing complexity of supply chains have drawn the attention to supply failure and have increased the awareness among professionals that risk assessment and mitigation play a crucial role in successfully managing supply chains.
