Circular economy visibility evaluation framework

Waste and circular economy

Landfills And The Circular Economy

Promotion of resource efficiency and development towards a circular economy is widely supported. Many products and materials that are brought into the economy contain hazardous substances. These substances may be acceptable during the consumption stage, but due to accumulation in the environment may also cause impact to human health and the environment after consumption. The primary goal of was...

Numerically robust computation of circular visibility

We address the question if a point inside a domain bounded by a simple closed arc spline is circularly visible from a specified arc from the boundary. We provide a simple and numerically stable linear time algorithm that solves this problem. In particular, we present an easy to check criterion that implies that a point is not visible from a specified boundary arc.

Reputation Evaluation Framework Based on QoS in Grid Economy Environments

This chapter mainly introduces some recent researches of reputation evaluation methods in Grid economy. The GRACE (Grid Architecture for Computational Economy architecture) is adopted to explain some mechanisms in the Grid economy for its clearly inner modules architecture. In addition, several new developed modules based on GRACE architecture are detailed discussed and two of them are laid mor...

Transition towards a Circular Economy: Perspectives

The UK economy is overly reliant on unsustainable production and consumption 12 practices, depleting finite resources at rates that will increase production costs, business risk and 13 economic instability. This over-consumption produces emissions and waste that cause climate 14 change and environmental degradation, impacting on the wellbeing of people in the UK and 15 beyond. The Resource Reco...
