Journal Article
Yu, L., Zhang, T., Siebers, P.-O., & Aickelin, U. (2012). Modelling electrical car diffusion based on agents. https://doi.org/10.4156/jdcta.vol6.issue19.52

Replacing traditional fossil fuel vehicles with innovative zero-emission vehicles for the transport in cities is one of the major tactics to achieve the UK government 2020 target of cutting emission. We are developing an agent-based simulation mode... Read More about Modelling electrical car diffusion based on agents.

Evaluating different cost-benefit analysis methods for port security operations (2012)
Book Chapter
Sherman, G., Siebers, P., Menachof, D., & Aickelin, U. (2012). Evaluating different cost-benefit analysis methods for port security operations. In J. Faulin, A. A. Juan, S. E. Grasman, & M. J. Fry (Eds.), Decision making in service industries: a practical approach. CRC Press

Service industries, such as ports, are attentive to their standards, a smooth service flow and economic viability. Cost benefit analysis has proven itself as a useful tool to support this type of decision making; it has been used by businesses and go...

A three-dimensional model of residential energy consumer archetypes for local energy policy design in the UK (2012)
Journal Article
Zhang, T., Siebers, P., & Aickelin, U. (2012). A three-dimensional model of residential energy consumer archetypes for local energy policy design in the UK. Energy Policy, 47, 102-110. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enpol.2012.04.027

This paper reviews major studies in three traditional lines of research in residential energy consumption in the UK, i.e. economic/infrastructure, behaviour, and load profiling. Based on the review the paper proposes a three-dimensional model for arc...

A beginner's guide to systems simulation in immunology (2012)
Book Chapter
Figueredo, G. P., Siebers, P.-O., Aickelin, U., & Foan, S. (2012). A beginner's guide to systems simulation in immunology. In C. A. Coello Coello, J. Greensmith, N. Krasnogor, P. Liò, G. Nicosia, & M. Pavone (Eds.), Artificial immune systems: 11th International Conference, ICARIS 2012, Taormina, Italy, August 28-31, 2012: proceedings. Springer

Some common systems modelling and simulation approaches for immune problems are Monte Carlo simulations, system dynamics, discrete-event simulation and agent-based simulation. These methods, however, are still not widely adopted in immunology researc... Read More about A beginner's guide to systems simulation in immunology.
