Genetics, insurance, and cardiomyopathies : a case study of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
(Heriot-Watt University Mathematical and Computer Sciences, 2020-03)The economic impact of genetic information on life insurance has been discussed since DNA-based genetic testing became available in the 1990s. Macdonald & Yu (2011) estimated the highest increases in life insurance premium ... -
Stochastic differential equations with multiple invariant measures and related problems
(Heriot-Watt University Mathematical and Computer Sciences, 2019-08)We study problems related to SDEs which admit multiple invariant measures. The main problem we address is determining the long time behaviour of a large class of diffusion processes on R N , generated by second order ... -
Multiscale modelling analysis and computations of complex heterogeneous multiphase systems
(Heriot-Watt University Mathematical and Computer Sciences, 2019-05)In this thesis, we analytically and computationally investigate various aspects related to the multiphase-multicomponent interfacial processes and reactive transport in homogeneous domains and heterogeneous periodic ... -
Aspects of mathematical biology : from self-organisation of the cytoskeleton to transport of migratory species
(Heriot-Watt University Mathematical and Computer Sciences, 2019-09)This thesis spans scales of mathematical biology, from single molecules to groups of organisms. We explore questions regarding the self-organisation of the cytoskeleton and the long distance migration of animals. Though ... -
Adaptive architecture-transparent policy control in a distributed graph reducer
(Heriot-Watt University Mathematical and Computer Sciences, 2019-05)The end of the frequency scaling era occured around 2005 as the clock frequency has stalled for commodity architectures. Thus performance improvements that could in the past be expected with each new hardware generation ...
