ArDM, a 1t liquid argon detector for dark matter searches
(2009)PoS: Proceedings of ScienceWeak Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are prime candidates for the dark matter in the universe. The ArDM experiment consists of a 1t liquid argon detector to search for WIMPs interacting elastically with argon nuclei. Both scintillation light and ionization charge from nuclear recoils are measured. The 128 nm light is reflected and shifted into the visible range by wavelength shifting foils and detected by 8" photomultipliers immersed ...Conference Paper -
Adaptive performance optimization for large-scale traffic control systems
(2009)IFAC Proceedings Volumes ~ Proceedings of the 12th IFAC Symposium on Transportation Systems (CTS 2009)The majority of practical Large-Scale Traffic Control Systems (LSTCSs) requires the optimization (fine-tuning) of their design parameters. A tremendous amount of human effort and time is spent for optimization of the overall LSTCS, which is usually performed by experienced personnel in the lack of an automated – well established – systematic approach. This paper, investigates the efficiency of the Adaptive Fine-Tuning algorithm, when ...Conference Paper
