SMAPP : Towards Smart Multipath TCP-enabled APPlications by Benjamin Hesmans (UCLouvain)

Multipath TCP was designed and implemented as a backward compatible replacement for TCP. For this reason, it exposes the standard socket API to the applications that cannot control the utilisation of the different paths.
This is a key feature for applications that are unaware of the multipath nature of the network. On the contrary, this is a limitation for applications that could benefit from specific knowledge to use multiple paths in a way that fits their needs.

Paul Otlet, a.327

The main advantage of Constraint Programming (CP) approaches for sequential pattern mining (SPM) is their modularity, which includes the ability to add new constraints (regular expressions, length restrictions, etc).

The Effect of Working Hours on Life Satisfaction

Marion Collewet, CORE

This paper exploits variation in the regular length of the full-time workweek in the German public sector over time and across federal states to identify the effect of weekly working hours on life satisfaction.  The effect found is nonlinear and heterogeneous across demographic groups. We derive labour supply elasticities.
