(2024-02-09)
Article
Open AccessMonitoring the spread of SARS-CoV-2 presents significant challenges due to the asymptomatic nature of the infections, the presence of numerous variants, and changes in population behavior resulting from the implementation ... -
Specification and description language models automatic execution in a high-performance environment
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-11-22)
Article
Open AccessSpecification and Description Language (SDL) is a language that can represent the behavior and structure of a model completely and unambiguously. It allows the creation of frameworks that can run a model without the need ... -
Modelling influenza and SARS-CoV-2 interaction: analysis for Catalonia region
(2023-01)
Article
Open AccessThe aim is to analyse that, during the current pandemic situation, the reduction in the number of cases of influenza suggests that the non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) applied to contain the expansion of SARS-CoV-2 ... -
Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystem (WEFE) Nexus: a key concept for a more resilient adaptation to the climate crisis
(2023-07-17)
Article
Open AccessThe Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystem (WEFE) Nexus is a pretty novel cross-thinking concept, meaning that answers to current environmental hazards must follow a multisectoral approach rather than a traditional unidirectional ... -
