Agent Technology in Industrial Applications

The agent metaphor has become increasingly popular in distributed computing systems. As often with a new paradigm, it is not very clear what the exact meaning is. The meaning and the development of the agent paradigm is therefore discussed in this paper. One motivation for using agents in distributed systems is that, due to the rapid technical development of computing and communication faciliti...

Liposome Technology for Industrial Purposes

Liposomes, spherical vesicles consisting of one or more phospholipid bilayers, were first described in the mid 60s by Bangham and coworkers. Since then, liposomes have made their way to the market. Today, numerous lab scale but only a few large-scale techniques are available. However, a lot of these methods have serious limitations in terms of entrapment of sensitive molecules due to their expo...

Application of information and communication technology and data sharing management scheme for the coastal fishery using real-time fishery information

In this paper, we propose an automatic computation and data sharing scheme to support management system in coastal fishery using real-time fishery information through information and communication technology (ICT). In Japan, several species of fisheries commodity have not been specified in Total Allowable Catch policy, causing a lot of confusion on fishery cooperatives and fishermen on how to s...

Technology Use and Industrial Transformation: Empirical Perspective

This study examines technology use in Canada’s manufacturing sector, and how a set of technology-using manufacturing establishments performed relative to non-users. Data originates from a recent Statistics Canada survey, asking manufacturing firms about their use of 22 advanced manufacturing technologies, and panel data taken from the Census of Manufacturers. Results show that the use of advanc...
