A procedure is presented that synthesizes fractional crystallization separation processes to obtain pure solids from multi-component solutions. The method includes a procedure to generate a network flow model to identify alternative process designs for fractional crystallization. The main advantage of this systematic procedure with respect to other reported procedures is using non-equilibri...

The term ‘design innovation,’ while not having a universally agreed upon definition, is increasingly used in the academic and professional design discourse, e.g. popular design magazines, academic journals, etc. for the last 10-15 years. Although the modern theory of innovation in economics has begun to refer to the practical relationship between design and innovation, and to emphasize the role...

The present study aims to design an international academic entrepreneurship model using grounded theory. The study population is a group of key Iranian informants, faculty members, and doctoral graduates with scientific expertise and work experience in the field of entrepreneurship, especially academic entrepreneurship and international entrepreneurship, and managers of knowledge-based academic...

the oil content of the wax produced in a dewaxing process is the key economic parameter thatshould be reduced as much as possible. some factors such as the type of solvents, cooling rate,temperature, and solvent to oil ratio influence the dewaxing process. due to the fact that crude oildiffers from place to place and since the operational conditions for wax extraction vary for differenttypes of...

BACKGROUND Academic hospital medicine is a new and rapidly growing field. Hospitalist faculty members often fill roles not typically held by other academic faculty, maintain heavy clinical workloads, and participate in nontraditional activities. Because of these differences, there is concern about how academic hospitalists may fare in the promotions process. OBJECTIVE To determine factors cri...

This paper gives an insight into heterogeneous multi-processor embedded systems design process and key issues related to achieving time and cost efficient improvements. After giving an overview of existing design methodologies linked to various levels of abstraction at which design process can be viewed, system modelling process is discussed in a more detailed manner. Special accent is put on m...

Interorganizational Standards (IOS) are a key-lever to digitizing business relationships within value creating networks. They provide assistance in bridging organizational borders by providing standard processes and semantics. Various IOS have been developed for supporting complex, partly domain dependent communication scenarios. Only little academic work analyzes the process of selecting a spe...

The use of information technology to support the educational mission of academic medical centers is nearly universal; however, the scope and methods employed vary greatly (Souza et al. 2008 ). This article reviews the methods, processes, and specific techniques needed to conceive, develop, implement, and assess technology-based educational programs across healthcare disciplines. We discuss the ...
