Charity under Threat?
(2012)Research SummaryThis paper is a summary of two research papers published by the Centre on Conflict, Development and Peacebuilding (CCDP) of the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, Geneva. The research was conducted under the auspices of the Islamic Charities Project (ICP). The project works towards the removal of unjustified obstacles for bona fide Islamic charitable institutions by arguing for more nuanced interpretations of ...Report -

Multi-level Monte Carlo finite difference and finite volume methods for stochastic linear hyperbolic systems
(2012)SAM Research ReportWe consider stochastic multi-dimensional linear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws. We prove existence and uniqueness of a random weak solution, provide estimates for the regularity of the solution in terms of regularities of input data, and show existence of statistical moments. Bounds for mean square error vs. expected work are proved for the Multi-Level Monte Carlo Finite Volume algorithm which is used to approximate the moments ...Report -

(2012)Technical report / Computer Science Department, ETH ZürichJust as important as the technical activities of software development– requirements, design, coding, documenting, compiling, testing, debugging. . . – are the management and communication tasks: recording project events, managing project Wikis and web pages, sending out notifications, reconciling changes, and many others. These tasks become ever more delicate with the increasingly distributed nature of modern software projects, small as ...Report -
