...conventional remelting and subsequent refining processing has been taken into account. Solid-state recycling processes such as extrusion and compaction at room or moderate temperature can result in significant energy savings. However, as aluminum scrap is normally contaminated by oil and/or organic coatings...

...techniques for modeling and analysis. The problems include automated support for service discovery, selection, negotiation, and composition. In addition, support for automated service contracting and contract execution is crucial for any large scale service environment where multiple clients and service providers...

Both goal and threat modelling are well-known activities related to high-level requirements engineering. While goals express why a system is needed, threats tell us why security for our system is needed. Still, you will often find that goals and threats are treated in separate modelling processes, perhaps...

Utilizing time effectively and efficiently is one of the important factors that can determine the success of achieving desired results of projects. Nevertheless, several projects come across delays and unnecessary use of time due to various reasons, and hence suffer from unfavorable consequences. Construction...

...travel date on a mobile application. This study examines active and attitudinal acceptability of reporting own travel data and what factors are central in predicting acceptability. It further explore the relation between these constructs and whether established theories of acceptability explain variations...

...defined by a rational parametrization. We provide effective methods to compute the involution and rotation symmetries for the planar case. As for space curves, our method finds the involutions in all cases, and all the rotation symmetries in the particular case of Pythagorean-hodograph curves. Our algorithms...

Competence brokering and knowledge transfer plays an important role in innovation and development of regions within a country. The Research Council of Norway administrates an innovation programme named VRI (Program for Regional R&D and Innovation) to facilitate this kind of development. VRI has duration ...

...buildup being of secondary concern. We consider the trapping mechanisms considered most important for the medium-to-long term (structural, residual and dissolution trapping), using a combination of modeling tools based on the Matlab Reservoir Simulation Toolbox (MRST). ...
