Object-oriented software development has proven effective for systems development, but the creation of reusable and changeable software architectures is still a challenging task. Design patterns capture the expertise for...

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 novel design procedure for switched linear parameter-varying (LPV) controller is proposed. The new procedure, based on the Youla parameterisation ideas, decomposes the controller design into two steps. One focuses on ...

Given the increased use of qualitative and mixed methods, and the continued use of quantitative methods, Creswell's third edition of Research Design: Qualitative, Quantitative, and Mixed Methods Approaches is most timely...

Chapter 1. Research Strategies and the Control of Nuisance Variables Chapter 2. Experimental Designs: an Overview Chapter 3. Fundamental Assumptions in Analysis of Variance Chapter 4. Completely Randomized Design Chapter...

CHAPTER 1: Introduction to Design CHAPTER 2: Principles of Estimation and Inference: Means and Variance CHAPTER 3: Design and Analysis of Single-Factor Experiments: Completely Randomized Design CHAPTER 4: Single-Factor E...

"Successful utilization of Additive Manufacturing (AM) in the space sector implicates two aspects: First, an understanding of the process inherent characteristics has to be developed, where the anisotropic behavior of ma...

The need for privacy has become a major priority for both governments and civilians desiring protection from signal interception. Widespread use of personal communications devices has only increased demand for a level of...

Applying design patterns is considered a helpful technique for designing software systems. Patterns description, however, results not sufficiently precise providing a weak understanding and making it difficult to be cert...

"In the ICELABPatagonia project, different laboratories for Karukinka National Park in Chile were designed. The main objective of these laboratories was to provide shelter against the area’s tough weather conditions, s...

The topic of this paper is related to the study of what is known in the industry as the “parent-child” effect. This is accomplished by using a coupled hydraulic fracture and reservoir simulator to perform a sensitivi...

Designing complex, dynamic yet multi-functional materials and devices is challenging because the design spaces for these materials have numerous interdependent and often conflicting constraints. Taking inspiration from a...

Wireless technology is a truly revolutionary paradigm shift, enabling multimedia communications between people and devices from any location. It also underpins exciting applications such as sensor networks, smart homes, ...
