Context scenarios and their usage for the construction of socio-technical energy scenarios

Modeling Socio-Technical Processes in e-Commerce Scenarios

We consider socio-technical processes, i.e. processes where machines as well as humans participate. Typical examples occur in sales processes in e-commerce. Three modeling tasks are selected: Modeling user preferences and utilities, modeling evaluations and modeling influence factors. A central concept representing knowledge is the notion of similarity. The major technique discussed is machine ...

Service scenarios - A socio-technical approach to business service modeling

The paper presents and discusses the notion of service scenarios. A service is work done by a service executor in interaction with a service consumer. A service scenario is a model of a service system and the roles that are played by the actors that participate and interact during the execution of a service. The model represents the roles and the interactions between the participants. Service s...

Scenarios for Fusion Energy

Are there scenarios for the near future (5-10 years) in which the public interest in, and political support for, fusion energy are likely to increase significantly? If such a scenario should occur, what should the status of Heavy Ion Fusion be at that time so that it is looked upon as a favored approach? If such a status can be identified, what should the research strategy be so that this statu...

Usage Scenarios for an Automated Model Compiler

This paper is meant to motivate tools and methods research in the field of model-based embedded software development. In particular, we include usage scenarios to describe how an automated model assembler called a model compiler could support automotive embedded control systems development. We describe some desired characteristics and features of the envisioned model compiler and place particul...
