Although vaccination remains one of the most impactful interventions in contemporary public health, with consistent and widely documented reductions in morbidity and mortality, the traditional empirical development of va...

Liquid Air Energy Storage offers several advantages over other energy storage systems, including high energy density, scalability, cost-competitiveness, and non-geographical constraints. This study develops a computation...

Two paradigms characterize much of the research in the Information Systems discipline: behavioral science and design science. The behavioral-science paradigm seeks to develop and verify theories that explain or predict h...

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...

Most organization-oriented methodologies for the analysis and design of multi-agent systems start defining the organization structure. This structure is defined in terms of roles that the agents have to play in the organ...

Formal methods are being increasingly used in engineering industrial software. They are moatly used for specifying and verifying software requirements, but seldom in later development phases. This paper tries to bridge ...

Self-optimizing mechatronic systems react autonomously and flexibly to changing conditions. They are capable of learning and optimize their behavior throughout their life cycle. The paradigm of self-optimization is origi...

This paper presents semiotic engineering – a semiotic theory of HCI. The theory has the advantage to integrate back end and front end design and development perspectives into a single metacommunication process that aff...

As a professor of the Operating Systems subject, I can say that for many years the book “Operating Systems Concepts” by Avi Silberschatz et al. was considered as the unquestionable number one in the subject’s bibli...

Artificial Intelligence deals with the challenge of modeling commonsense reasoning. In the last fifteen years argument-based systems have came forward to meet this challenge as knowledge representation and reasoning tool...
