In dieser Arbeit wird ein vollständig dezentrales Konzept zum Last- und Erzeugungsmanagement vorgestellt, mit dem sich Stromverbraucher und dezentrale Stromerzeugungsanlagen selbst organisieren können, um kurzfristig präzise Laständerungen durchzuführen. Dabei sollen nicht nur größere...

There is an increasing appreciation for the role that facilitating institutions play in successful innovation. Most commonly these institutions are discussed and analysed as innovation systems. National Innovation Systems were the first type identified, and a range of other forms of innovation...

A methodology is offered which can be used to construct an econometric model in the presence of structural change of an evolutionary type. The theoretical basis for such modelling is drawn from the self-organisation approach and operationalised in the context of the logistic diffusion growth...

Learning processes are widely held to be the mechanism by which boundedly rational agents adapt to environmental changes. We argue that this same outcome might also be achieved by a different mechanism, namely specialisation and the division of knowledge, which we here extend to the consumer...

In this paper, it is argued that the espousal of biological analogies by evolutionary economists cannot reveal the most important features of evolutionary change in economic processes. Analogies are used to best effect in the preliminary stages of research and in their normal linguistic role as...
