In this paper, we introduce the concepts of “cooperative buildings” and “roomware” and place them in the context of the integrated design of real, physical, resp. architectural spaces and virtual, resp. digital information spaces. By “roomware” we mean computer-augmented things in rooms, like doors, walls, furniture, and others. The general approach is detailed via examples from the i-LAND proj...

This inquiry is practical in nature. Researching children’s behavioral problems and family’s communication as a practitioner would give me worthwhile knowledge that I could use for practice. However, Kerlinger and Lee (1999) stated that the primary purpose of empirical research is theory. Solving an applied problem is not a sufficient or an appropriate reason to conduct empirical research. Empi...

Wheat is a photo-insensitive and thermosensitive long day plant. It requires cool climate during the early part of its growth. Temperature plays a dominant role for wheat production in India. Both the start and end of wheat crop season are limited by temperature regimes. Within the growing season itself, warmer temperature shortens the vegetative crop duration. Wheat grain yield and quality are...

Waste plastics are harmful, toxic, and non-biodegradable. Environmental impacts of waste plastics are raised concern about all over the world for safe and friendly environment. Due to dense population and environmental effects of the major city in the world dumping, incineration and land filling are faced difficulties and challenges. At this circumstances vast of waste plastics are remained vul...

China is a country with vast territory, but economic development and population growth have reduced the usable land resources in recent years. Therefore, reclamation by pumping and filling is carried out in eastern coastal regions of China in order to meet the needs of urbanization. However, large areas of reclaimed land need rapid drainage consolidation treatment. Based on past researches on h...

The aim of this research work was to investigate on the ball filling estimation of Miduk semi-autogenous (SAG) Mill via an utilized method. Miduk copper concentrator is located in Kerman Province, Iran, and its size reduction stage includes one gyratory crusher which feeds one SAG mill (9.75 dia.(m)*3.88 length(m)) following two parallel ball mills (5dia.(m)*7lenght(m)). After SAG mill, a tromm...

The aim of the study is to analyze three different waste treatment technologies by life cycle assessment tool. Sanitary Landfill, Incineration and gasification-pyrolysis of the waste treatment technologies are studied in SimaPro software based on input-output materials flow. SimaPro software has been applied for analyzing environmental burden by different impact categories. All technologies are...

A graph G is called a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists an edge weighted tree T and two non-negative real numbers dmin and dmax such that each leaf lu of T corresponds to a vertex u ∈ V and there is an edge (u, v) ∈ E if and only if dmin ≤ dT (lu, lv) ≤ dmax where dT (lu, lv) is the sum of the weights of the edges on the unique path from lu to lv in T . In this paper we analyze...
