The rapid market changes and strong product individualization create the need for great flexibility of manufacturing management on new foundations, such as Industry 4.0 model. Digital is basis 4.0, which has following dimensions: (a) digital based advanced digital-oriented technologies, (b) smart products (advanced model characteristics), (c) supply chain raw materials delivery finished product...

To improve scientific literacy, K-12 educators need to: develop the ablility to use and analyze data, incorporate data into their curriculum, and interact with teachers from other disciplines to create interdisciplinary units. A Process-Oriented Environmental Change Education workshop was conducted for eleven interdisciplinary teams, consisting of 21 teachers, in 1997 and 1998. The National Sci...

From June 27th till July2nd, I attended to scientific events in Anchorage/USA, namely the IEEE SCC'14 conference and the IEEE Services'14 congress. At the SCC conference, I presented a full research paper with the title " Modelling Sound Conflict Management for Virtual-Enterprise Collaboration " that extends earlier work on virtual enterprise modelling and presents an approach for conflict mode...

OLOMAS’02 is the third workshop organized within the frame of the DEXA conference. The first two workshops (HOLOMAS’00 held in Greenwich, UK, HOLOMAS’01 in Munich) documented the imperative need in starting mutual communication and cooperation between two research communities who were at the time working in parallel without any deeper interaction. That is, the AI community aimed at multi-agent ...

The FOAL workshop in its tenth edition continues to attract foundational work on aspect-oriented software development. As in previous years, we were pleased to assemble yet another outstanding program committee for FOAL 2011. The members of the program committee were: • Hridesh Rajan — Program Committee Chair, Iowa State University, USA • Werner M. Dietl — University of Washington • Juergen Din...

background and purpose: there are 3 specific reasons for education evaluation: to justify the existence and budget of the training department by showing how it contributes to the organization’s objectives and goals, to decide whether to continue or discontinue training programs, and to gain information on how to improve future training programs. we aimed to assess the effectiveness a media produ...

In a service-oriented architecture systems communicate by exchanging messages. Message passing provides for robust and loosely coupled interaction but it also provides less structure than traditional RPC models, which are based on a fairly rigid request-response interaction style. Instead, messages exchanged over time between a set of parties can form a multitude of conversations. An expressive...

Following last two years’ RAM-SE (Reflection, AOP and Meta-Data for Software Evolution) workshop at the ECOOP conference, the RAM-SE 2006 workshop was a successful and popular event. As its name implies, the workshop’s focus was on the application of reflective, aspect-oriented and data-mining techniques to the broad field of software evolution. Topics and discussions at the workshop included m...

1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Similar to many scientific and applied research fields, geography has moved from a data-poor and computation-poor to a data-rich and computation-rich environment. The scope, coverage and volume of digital geographic datasets are growing rapidly due to new high-resolution satellite systems, initiatives such as the U.S. National Spatial Data Infrastructure and the automated co...
