Cloud computing and Enterprise Interoperability could help enterprises flexibly fit market challenges, collaborating with their partners. Cloud computing models can be splited into three basic designs: Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS); Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). Recently, everything/ anything as a Service (XaaS) is becoming a mainstream of evolution of clou...

We have used extensive V , I photometry (down to V = 20.9) of 33615 stars in the direction of the globular cluster M 55 to study the dynamical interaction of this cluster with the tidal fields of the Galaxy. An entire quadrant of the cluster has been covered, out to ' 1.5 times the tidal radius. A CMD down to about 4 magnitudes below the turn-off is presented and analysed. A large population of...

membrane-based technologies have increasingly been chosen in desalination processes, which is evidenced by the increase of large-scale plants constructed in recent years. indeed, several appropriate strategies should be considered to minimize problems faced during the construction, such as membrane system designs, area requirement, energy requirement, operation and maintenance, and environmenta...

in this study, an attempt has been made to expound the iranian law of intellectual property in relation to biotechnology. the most important themes studied are patents, industrial designs and trade marks. the latest relevant piece of legislation concerning the subject matters was passed in march 2008. however, the history of laws and regulations in this field goes back to early twentieth centur...

the method of entropy production minimization for finding energy efficient paths of operation of process equipment is first presented using an instructive example with optimal control theory. with refer-ence to the earlier investigations, the researchers present some design rules that relate to the designs’ en-tropy production. minimum entropy production is not obtained in special cases, not ge...

pinch technology is one of the best methods for designing a multi stream heat exchanger(mshe) through a network; current pinch-based methods, however, lead to a larger and more complicateddesign problems. the major drawback of the current methods is they result in designs having more individual mshe sections than essential, correspond to the enthalpy intervals on temperature vs. enthalpy diagra...

The cross section of the process e+e− → ωπ0 → π0π0γ has been measured in the c.m. energy range 920–1380 MeV with the CMD-2 detector. Its energy dependence is well described by the interference of the ρ(770) and ρ(1450) mesons decaying to ωπ. Upper limits for the cross sections of the direct processes e+e− → π0π0γ, ηπ0γ have been set.

Computer aided modeling and design of industrial systems presents great potential for facilitating the construction of industrial systems which maximize utilization of materials, minimize emissions of harmful wastes, and preserve economic feasibility. A framework for modeling industrial systems that is to form the basis of a design system is described. The model takes an industrial system to be...
