We discuss three software architectures for coordination. All architectures are based on agents. Each agent has a local dataspace that contains shared distributed replicated data. The three architectures diier in the way agents communicate: either through an unordered broadcast, through an atomic broadcast, or through a synchronization among all agents. We rst show how to represent both data-dr...

Abstract Circular economy (CE) paradigm fosters manufacturing companies’ sustainability taking place through different circular (CM) strategies. These strategies allow companies to be internally committed embrace values and externally aligned with several stakeholders not necessarily belonging the same supply chain. Nevertheless, these CM adoption is limited by heterogeneous barriers, among whi...

In this paper, we present a novel interdisciplinary approach to study the relationship between diffusive surface structures and their acoustic performance. Using computational design, are iteratively generated 3D printed at 1:10 model scale. They originate from different fabrication typologies designed have diffusion absorption effects. An automated robotic process measures impulse responses of...

Abstract The product functional configuration (PFC) is typically used by firms to satisfy the individual requirements of customers and realized based on market analysis. This study aims help analyze functions realize configurations using patent data. first proposes a patent-data-driven PFC method hypergraph network. It then constructs weighted network model optimize combination function quantit...

This paper reports the initial conclusions of a research in progress that investigates the role of information technology (IT) in facilitating the implementation of social responsibility agendas in contemporary organizations. The project’s main goal is to produce relevant and actionable knowledge related to how IT can support socially responsible corporate projects. The intensive use of IT appl...

E-science communities and especially the astronomy community have put tremendous efforts into providing global access to their distributed scientific data sets to foster vivid data and knowledge sharing within their scientific federations. Beyond already existing huge data volumes, the collaborative researchers face major challenges in managing the anticipated data deluge of forthcoming project...
