Integration as “Boundary Redefinition Process”

Trends integration process as input data for Kansei Engineering Systems

The main current evolutions in industrial design research are the following : 1 The computerization of the early design phases 2 Consumer and user centered design with in particular emotional design 3 The concurrent engineering, with collaborative work supporting tools Our goal is to modelize the preliminary phases of traditional industrial design process, in order to build new computer aided d...

On Requirements for Federated Data Integration as a Compilation Process

Data integration problems are commonly viewed as interoperability issues, where the burden of reaching a common ground for exchanging data is distributed across the peers involved in the process. While apparently an effective approach towards standardization and interoperability, it poses a constraint to data providers who, for a variety of reasons, require backwards compatibility with propriet...

Design of Oil Refineries Hydrogen Network Using Process Integration Principles

This paper describes the application of process integration principles to the design of oil refineries hydrogen network. In this regard, a design hierarchy as well as heuristics and required guidelines are proposed. The recommended rules compensate lack of procedure to the design and make the design process easier. The guiding principles of the design are based upon pinch technology and ext...
