Acne vulgaris is an inflammatory disease of the pilosebaceous unit, consisting of comedones, papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts. With the complexity of polymorphic nature, acne vulgaris is inherently difficult to assess and the measurement and grading of this condition is a recognized challenge for clinicians. This article presents a comprehensive preview of acne severity assessment according to timelines to give an overview of methods used to measure acne severity.

This study shows that when compression/bending and torsion are applied simultaneously, the bond between the concrete core and steel tube may weaken, leading to slippage, which in turn reduces the structural system’s load-bearing efficiency.

The modelling of traffic flow using methods and models from physics has a long history. In recent years especially cellular automata models have allowed for large-scale simulations of large traffic networks faster than real time. On the other hand, these systems are interesting for physicists since they allow to observe genuine nonequilibrium effects. Here the current status of cellular automata models for traffic flow is reviewed with special emphasis on nonequilibrium effects (e.g. phase transitions) induced by on- and off-ramps.

The study determines the predominant hydrogeological controls on salinity distribution and salinization/freshening, proposing conceptual models to explain the different vertical distributions of groundwater salinity at the coastline. An improved understanding of the sources of salinity and the hydrogeological controls will subsequently provide support for the future management of groundwater in the Western Port Basin, and serve as a template for how to unravel complex salinity distributions in coastal aquifers, and their relationships to palaeo- and recent geomorphological histories.

This thesis intends to develop application-level access control models to address several major security issues in enterprise environments. The first goal is to provide simple and efficient authorization specifications to reduce the complexity of security management. The second goal is to provide dynamic access control for Web service applications. The third goal is to provide an access control framework for Semantic Web services. In this thesis, an Authorization-Function-Based Role-based Access Control (FB-RBAC) model is proposed for controlling enterprise systems at the application level.

This project will investigate of the effects of applying scientific modes of analysis to the process of artistic production. Methodologies derived from the disciplines of classification and taxonomy will be used to examine the formal relationships between sculptural objects in respect to their conceptual and actual development. Evolutionary theory will be used as a model in this analysis. The project will investigate the complexity of the system and explore the effect of the intervention of scientific methods on artistic production.

The design proposed in this thesis aims to reduce the distortion in Class-D Amplifier output at the cost of increased complexity in the implementation. The thesis is focussed on the DSP components of the unique design. State-ofthe-art FPGAs have been used as the implementation platform for these systems due to advantages such as abundant logic resources, ease of programming and re-configurability. The results demonstrate advantages of SWL processing systems in terms of efficient hardware utilization.

The study examined the effect of education decentralisation on the practice of community participation in the Philippines. Decentralisation, as an institutional reform initiative in education, is a complex and contested concept resulting in a wide range of responses that addresses system-wide issues to improve access and quality of education. It had been a consistent theme in education reform in recent decades and its introduction brought about several permutations in application and meaning that have achieved mixed results.

The world is becoming increasingly focused on an imperative to reduce the cost of services. Managers at this cutting edge of practical organizational development are trying many ways to achieve this. The major focus of this research uses a systems psychodynamic approach to investigate the role taken up by part-time contract managers in an Australian university. These part-time roles frequently fail in the longer term. This approach provides an understanding of the unconscious group dynamics that may cause the role to fail.

Modelling the diffusion of mobile commerce in a country is a difficult task due to the non-linear, complex and uncertain nature of its operating environment. Conventional analytical techniques are of limited use in this context, and a System Dynamics approach is more appropriate to model such a complex system.

This study uncovers a wide range of complex transport dynamics in transiently forced aquifers that has profound implications for the understanding and quantification of solute transport in these important groundwater systems. And the results in this thesis predict that complex transport structures and dynamics arise in natural transiently forced aquifers around the world. When such dynamics do arise, it will lead to mixing and reactive transport patterns that are very different from those predicted by conventional Darcy flow models.

This thesis has proposed two systems: the RIM-OFDM system with diversity reception exploits simultaneously the frequency and spatial diversity to achieve better SEP performance than the conventional IM-OFDM with diversity reception; The RIM-OFDM system with CI attains higher reliability and flexibility than the conventional IM-OFDM-CI system. The low-complexity detectors were also proposed to reduce the complexity while still achieve nearly same performance of the ML detector.
