  text: "Micro- and smart grids (MSG) play an important role both for integrating\r\nrenewable
    energy sources in conventional electricity grids and for providing\r\npower supply
    in remote areas. Modern MSGs are largely driven by power\r\nelectronic converters
    due to their high efficiency and flexibility.\r\nNevertheless, controlling MSGs
    is a challenging task due to highest\r\nrequirements on energy availability, safety
    and voltage quality within a wide\r\nrange of different MSG topologies. This results
    in a high demand for\r\ncomprehensive testing of new control concepts during their
    development phase\r\nand comparisons with the state of the art in order to ensure
    their feasibility.\r\nThis applies in particular to data-driven control approaches
    from the field of\r\nreinforcement learning (RL), whose stability and operating
    behavior can hardly\r\nbe evaluated a priori. Therefore, the OpenModelica Microgrid
    Gym (OMG) package,\r\nan open-source software toolbox for the simulation and control
    optimization of\r\nMSGs, is proposed. It is capable of modeling and simulating
    arbitrary MSG\r\ntopologies and offers a Python-based interface for plug \\& play
    controller\r\ntesting. In particular, the standardized OpenAI Gym interface allows
    for easy\r\nRL-based controller integration. Besides the presentation of the OMG
    toolbox,\r\napplication examples are highlighted including safe Bayesian optimization
    for\r\nlow-level controller tuning."

  text: Mobile shopping apps have been using Augmented Reality (AR) in the last years
    to place their products in the environment of the customer. While this is possible
    with atomic 3D objects, there is is still a lack in the runtime conﬁguration of
    3D object compositions based on user needs and environmental constraints. For
    this, we previously developed an approach for model-based AR-assisted product
    conﬁguration based on the concept of Dynamic Software Product Lines. In this demonstration
    paper, we present the corresponding tool support ProConAR in the form of a Product
    Modeler and a Product Conﬁgurator. While the Product Modeler is an Angular web
    app that splits products (e.g. table) up into atomic parts (e.g. tabletop, table
    legs, funnier) and saves it within a conﬁguration model, the Product Conﬁgurator
    is an Android client that uses the conﬁguration model to place diﬀerent product
    conﬁgurations within the environment of the customer. We show technical details
    of our ready to use tool-chain ProConAR by describing its implementation and usage
    as well as pointing out future research directions.

  text: "Modern services consist of modular, interconnected\r\ncomponents, e.g., microservices
    forming a service mesh. To\r\ndynamically adjust to ever-changing service demands,
    service\r\ncomponents have to be instantiated on nodes across the network.\r\nIncoming
    flows requesting a service then need to be routed\r\nthrough the deployed instances
    while considering node and link\r\ncapacities. Ultimately, the goal is to maximize
    the successfully\r\nserved flows and Quality of Service (QoS) through online service\r\ncoordination.
    Current approaches for service coordination are\r\nusually centralized, assuming
    up-to-date global knowledge and\r\nmaking global decisions for all nodes in the
    network. Such global\r\nknowledge and centralized decisions are not realistic
    in practical\r\nlarge-scale networks.\r\n\r\nTo solve this problem, we propose
    two algorithms for fully\r\ndistributed service coordination. The proposed algorithms
    can be\r\nexecuted individually at each node in parallel and require only\r\nvery
    limited global knowledge. We compare and evaluate both\r\nalgorithms with a state-of-the-art
    centralized approach in extensive\r\nsimulations on a large-scale, real-world
    network topology.\r\nOur results indicate that the two algorithms can compete
    with\r\ncentralized approaches in terms of solution quality but require\r\nless
    global knowledge and are magnitudes faster (more than\r\n100x)."

  text: "Modern services comprise interconnected components,\r\ne.g., microservices
    in a service mesh, that can scale and\r\nrun on multiple nodes across the network
    on demand. To process\r\nincoming traffic, service components have to be instantiated
    and\r\ntraffic assigned to these instances, taking capacities and changing\r\ndemands
    into account. This challenge is usually solved with\r\ncustom approaches designed
    by experts. While this typically\r\nworks well for the considered scenario, the
    models often rely\r\non unrealistic assumptions or on knowledge that is not available\r\nin
    practice (e.g., a priori knowledge).\r\n\r\nWe propose a novel deep reinforcement
    learning approach that\r\nlearns how to best coordinate services and is geared
    towards\r\nrealistic assumptions. It interacts with the network and relies on\r\navailable,
    possibly delayed monitoring information. Rather than\r\ndefining a complex model
    or an algorithm how to achieve an\r\nobjective, our model-free approach adapts
    to various objectives\r\nand traffic patterns. An agent is trained offline without
    expert\r\nknowledge and then applied online with minimal overhead. Compared\r\nto
    a state-of-the-art heuristic, it significantly improves flow\r\nthroughput and
    overall network utility on real-world network\r\ntopologies and traffic traces.
    It also learns to optimize different\r\nobjectives, generalizes to scenarios with
    unseen, stochastic traffic\r\npatterns, and scales to large real-world networks."

  text: "Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations
    (PDEs) arise\r\nin most scientific disciplines that make use of mathematical techniques.
    As exact solutions are in general not computable, numerical methods are used to
    obtain approximate\r\nsolutions. In order to draw valid conclusions from numerical
    computations, it is crucial\r\nto understand which qualitative aspects numerical
    solutions have in common with the\r\nexact solution. Symplecticity is a subtle
    notion that is related to a rich family of geometric properties of Hamiltonian
    systems. While the effects of preserving symplecticity\r\nunder discretisation
    on long-term behaviour of motions is classically well known, in this\r\nthesis\r\n(a)
    the role of symplecticity for the bifurcation behaviour of solutions to Hamiltonian\r\nboundary
    value problems is explained. In parameter dependent systems at a bifurcation\r\npoint
    the solution set to a boundary value problem changes qualitatively. Bifurcation\r\nproblems
    are systematically translated into the framework of classical catastrophe theory.
    It is proved that existing classification results in catastrophe theory apply
    to\r\npersistent bifurcations of Hamiltonian boundary value problems. Further
    results for\r\nsymmetric settings are derived.\r\n(b) It is proved that to preserve
    generic bifurcations under discretisation it is necessary and sufficient to preserve
    the symplectic structure of the problem.\r\n(c) The catastrophe theory framework
    for Hamiltonian ODEs is extended to PDEs\r\nwith variational structure. Recognition
    equations for A-series singularities for functionals on Banach spaces are derived
    and used in a numerical example to locate high-codimensional bifurcations.\r\n(d)
    The potential of symplectic integration for infinite-dimensional Lie-Poisson systems
    (Burgers’ equation, KdV, fluid equations, . . . ) using Clebsch variables is analysed.\r\nIt
    is shown that the advantages of symplectic integration can outweigh the disadvantages
    of integrating over a larger phase space introduced by a Clebsch representation.\r\n(e)
    Finally, the preservation of variational structure of symmetric solutions in multisymplectic
    PDEs by multisymplectic integrators on the example of (phase-rotating)\r\ntravelling
    waves in the nonlinear wave equation is discussed."

  text: Current GNN architectures use a vertex neighborhood aggregation scheme, which
    limits their discriminative power to that of the 1-dimensional Weisfeiler-Lehman
    (WL) graph isomorphism test. Here, we propose a novel graph convolution operator
    that is based on the 2-dimensional WL test. We formally show that the resulting
    2-WL-GNN architecture is more discriminative than existing GNN approaches. This
    theoretical result is complemented by experimental studies using synthetic and
    real data. On multiple common graph classification benchmarks, we demonstrate
    that the proposed model is competitive with state-of-the-art graph kernels and
    GNNs.

  text: "In many real-world applications, the relative depth of objects in an image
    is\r\ncrucial for scene understanding, e.g., to calculate occlusions in augmented\r\nreality
    scenes. Predicting depth in monocular images has recently been tackled\r\nusing
    machine learning methods, mainly by treating the problem as a regression\r\ntask.
    Yet, being interested in an order relation in the first place,\r\nranking methods
    suggest themselves as a natural alternative to regression, and\r\nindeed, ranking
    approaches leveraging pairwise comparisons as training\r\ninformation (\"object
    A is closer to the camera than B\") have shown promising\r\nperformance on this
    problem. In this paper, we elaborate on the use of\r\nso-called \\emph{listwise}
    ranking as a generalization of the pairwise approach.\r\nListwise ranking goes
    beyond pairwise comparisons between objects and considers\r\nrankings of arbitrary
    length as training information. Our approach is based on\r\nthe Plackett-Luce
    model, a probability distribution on rankings, which we\r\ncombine with a state-of-the-art
    neural network architecture and a sampling\r\nstrategy to reduce training complexity.
    An empirical evaluation on benchmark\r\ndata in a \"zero-shot\" setting demonstrates
    the effectiveness of our proposal\r\ncompared to existing ranking and regression
    methods."

  text: The challenge of designing new tunable nonlinear dielectric materials with
    tailored properties has attracted an increasing amount of interest recently. Herein,
    we study the effective nonlinear dielectric response of a stochastic paraelectric-dielectric
    composite consisting of equilibrium distributions of circular and partially penetrable
    disks (or parallel, infinitely long, identical, partially penetrable, circular
    cylinders) of a dielectric phase randomly dispersed in a continuous matrix of
    a paraelectric phase. The random microstructures were generated using the Metropolis
    Monte Carlo algorithm. The evaluation of the effective permittivity and tunability
    were carried out by employing either a Landau thermodynamic model or its Johnson’s
    approximation to describe the field-dependent permittivity of the paraelectric
    phase and solving continuum-electrostatics equations using finite element calculations.
    We reveal that the percolation threshold in this composite governs the critical
    behavior of the effective permittivity and tunability. For microstructures below
    the percolation threshold, our simulations demonstrate a strong nonlinear behaviour
    of the field-dependent effective permittivity and very high tunability that increases
    as a function of dielectric phase concentration. Above the percolation threshold,
    the effective permittivity shows the tendency to linearization and the tunability
    dramatically drops down. The highly reduced permittivity and extraordinarily high
    tunability are obtained for the composites with dielectric impenetrable disks
    at high concentrations, in which the triggering of the percolation transition
    is avoided. The reported results cast light on distinct nonlinear behaviour of
    2D and 3D stochastic composites and can guide the design of novel composites with
    the controlled morphology and tailored permittivity and tunability.

  text: Previous accounting research shows that taxes affect decision making by individuals
    and firms. Most studies assume that agents have an accurate perception regarding
    their tax burden. However, there is a growing body of literature analyzing whether
    taxes are indeed perceived correctly. We review 127 studies on the measurement
    of tax misperception and its behavioral implications. The review reveals that
    many taxpayers have substantial tax misperceptions that lead to biased decision
    making. We develop a Behavioral Taxpayer Response Model on the impact of provided
    tax information on tax perception. Besides individual traits, characteristics
    of the tax information and the decision environment determine the extent of tax
    misperception. We discuss opportunities for future research and methodological
    limitations. While there is much evidence on tax misperception at the individual
    level, we hardly find any research at the firm level. Little is known about the
    real effects of managers’ tax misperception and on how tax information is strategically
    managed to impact stakeholders. This research gap is surprising as a large part
    of the accounting literature analyzes decision making and disclosure of firms.
    We recommend a mixed-method approach combining experiments, surveys, and archival
    data analyses to improve the knowledge on tax misperception and its consequences.

  text: We analyze the impact of trust on bargaining behavior between auditor and
    auditee in a tax setting. We study the effect of interpersonal trust and trust
    in government on both taxpayer and tax auditor. In an experiment with variation
    in pairwise trust settings, we find evidence that both kinds of trust affect the
    bargaining behavior, albeit in different ways. While trust in government increases
    taxpayers’ tax offers, interpersonal trust may lead to more concessionary behavior
    of tax auditors moderated by trust in government. Our findings help tax authorities
    to shape programs to enhance compliance in an atmosphere of trust.

  text: This study examines the visibility of the GAAP effective tax rate (ETR) in
    firms’ financial statements as a distinct disclosure choice. Applying a game-theory
    disclosure model for voluntary disclosure strategies of firms to a tax setting,
    we argue that firms face a trade-off in their ETR disclosure decisions. On the
    one hand, firms have an incentive to enhance their ETR disclosure when the ratio
    offers shareholders “favourable conditions”, for example in terms of higher expected
    after-tax cash-flows. On the other hand, the disclosure of a favourable low ETR
    could attract the attention of tax auditors and the public and ultimately result
    in disclosure costs. We empirically test disclosure behaviour by examining the
    relation between disclosure visibility and different ETR conditions that reflect
    different stakeholder specific costs and benefits. While we find that unfavourable
    ETR conditions are not highlighted, we observe higher disclosure visibility for
    favourable ETRs (smooth, close to the industry average, decreasing). Additional
    analyses reveal that this high visibility is characteristic of firm-years with
    only moderately decreasing ETRs at usual ETR levels, while extreme ETRs are not
    highlighted. Interestingly and in contrast to our main results, a subsample of
    family firms do not seem to highlight favourable ETRs.

  text: This article comprehensively reviews Australia’s corporate income tax complexity
    as faced by multinational corporations (MNCs) and compares it to the average of
    the remaining OECD countries. Building on unique survey data, I find that the
    Australian tax code is considerably more complex than the OECD average, which
    is mainly due to overly complex anti-avoidance legislation, such as regulations
    on transfer pricing, general anti-avoidance or controlled foreign corporations
    (CFC). In contrast, Australia’s tax framework, which covers processes and features
    such as tax law enactment or tax audits, is close to the OECD average. A more
    granular analysis yields further interesting insights. For example, excessive
    details in the tax code and the time between the announcement of a tax law change
    and its enactment turn out to be serious issues in Australia relative to the remaining
    OECD countries.

abstract:
- lang: eng
  text: This paper introduces an index that comprehensively measures the complexity
    of countries’ corporate income tax systems faced by multinational corporations.
    It builds on surveys of highly experienced tax consultants of the largest international
    tax services networks. The index, called the Tax Complexity Index (TCI), is composed
    of a tax code subindex covering tax regulations and a tax framework subindex covering
    tax processes and features. For a sample of 100 countries, we find that tax complexity
    varies considerably across countries, and tax code and framework complexity also
    vary within countries. Among others, tax complexity is strongly driven by the
    complexity of transfer pricing regulations in the tax code and tax audits in the
    tax framework. When analyzing the associations with other country characteristics,
    we identify different patterns. For example, with regard to GDP, we find a positive
    association with tax code complexity and a negative association with tax framework
    complexity, suggesting that highly economically developed countries tend to have
    more complex tax codes and less complex frameworks. Overall, our tax complexity
    measures can serve as valuable proxies in future research and supportive tools
    for a variety of firm decisions and national and international tax policy discussions.
