In this paper, we focus on two problems of the Web service-based business process integration: the discovery of Web services based on the capabilities and properties of published services, and the composition of business...

In this thesis, a novel approach to automatically install threaded inserts into additive manufactured parts is developed and validated. Such an approach is highly relevant in the context of process automation and product...

Several approaches have been proposed in order to develop intelligent applications on Computer Aided Process Planning (CAPP) domain. These approaches range from historic designs storage for later recovery, to generative ...

We discuss the theoretical bases that underpin the automation of the computations of tree-level and next-to-leading order cross sections, of their matching to parton shower simulations, and of the merging of matched samp...

Some of the artificial intelligence (AI) methods could be used to improve the performance of automation systems in manufacturing processes. However, the application of these methods in the industry is not widespread bec...

Macromolecular X-ray crystallography is routinely applied to understand biological processes at a molecular level. However, significant time and effort are still required to solve and complete many of these structures be...

Diffraction (X-ray, neutron and electron) and electron cryo-microscopy are powerful methods to determine three-dimensional macromolecular structures, which are required to understand biological processes and to develop n...

BACKGROUND: Synthesis of multiple randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in a systematic review can summarize the effects of individual outcomes and provide numerical answers about the effectiveness of interventions. Filter...

This paper was written based on experience with teaching subjects on control systems and industrial automation at technical universities. The paper presents proven methods on how to organize and moderate an educational p...

A Federated System is a collection of independent, cooperative, possibly heterogeneous and autonomous computer systems (usually database systems) which allows sharing all or some of its data. A Service-Oriented Architect...

"In future, there will be an increasing demand for waste heat recovery systems (WHRS). So far current technologies are not expected to fulfill the requirement expected for a broad deployment. Thermoelectric generators (T...

Macromolecular X-ray crystallography is routinely applied to understand biological processes at a molecular level. However, significant time and effort are still required to solve and complete many of these structures be...

Robots have become usual collaborators in our daily life. While robotic systems grow to be more and more complex, the need to engineering their software development process grows as well. Traditional approaches that are ...

Component Based Software Development (CBSD) is a development process based on components’ reuse. One of the main difficulties for developers is selecting the most suitable component that fit in their development system...
