Nuclear–electronic orbital methods: Foundations and prospects

Application of Numerical Methods in the Analysis of Mat Foundations and Limitations of Classical Methods

Foundations of Agile Methods

Agile Methods (AMs) are a set of development techniques designed to address some problems of modern software development (i.e. projects over budget and over schedule). Such methods do not pretend to be useful in any kind of software project or to be the solution to reduce costs and increase quality of any product. However, in specific contexts and for specific problems, AMs simply helps develop...

Computing with words in decision making: foundations, trends and prospects

Computing with Words (CW) methodology has been used in several different environments to narrow the differences between human reasoning and computing. As Decision Making is a typical human mental process, it seems natural to apply the CW methodology in order to create and enrich decision models in which the information that is provided and manipulated has a qualitative nature. In this paper we ...

Foundations and Future Prospects of Standards Studies: Multidisciplinary Approach

In this chapter three research models around BPS are derived in subsections 3.1 to 3.3. These research models shed light on the consequences/value dimensions of BPS (i.e. analyze the impact of BPS on business process performance and its sub-dimensions time, cost, and quality, as well as on business process flexibility).1 In a first step, the chapter introduces the three research models which ar...
