The authors discuss the results of a research project that developed an architectural framework for integrating non-IBM network architectures with the reference model and node structures of IBM's System Network Architecture (SNA). The unique features of th ...
The relevance of space in human life is increasing. The point of equilibrium between constraint and freedom has moved. Individuals have become actors of their own spatiality as well as of the spatiality of others. Social actors must develop an explicit com ...
The design of direct driven turbomachinery is an interdisciplinary task. Standard design procedures propose to split such systems into subcomponents and to design each one individually. This common procedure, however, tends to neglect the interactions betw ...
The need to cope with rockfall hazard and risk led many countries to adopt proper strategies for hazard mapping and risk management, based on their own social and political constraints. The experience of every single country in facing this challenge provid ...
What is the self? This major philosophical question has been considered too complex to be studied in neuroscience. However, during the last 20 years, researchers from different disciplines within the cognitive neurosciences have started investigating the n ...
Recent research has explored the principles of service system viability based on systems inquiry invoking perspectives from Systems Theory and Cybernetics in particular Stafford Beer’s viable systems model (VSM). However based on Banathy & Jenlink (2004), ...
Here Bernard Cache provides a detailed analysis of a paper written in 1636 by the French mathematician, architect and engineer, Girard Desargues. Desargues is best known as the founder of projective geometry. Cache explains how he initally developed this s ...
Immediate experience localizes the self within the limits of the physical body. This spatial unity has been challenged by philosophical and mystical traditions aimed to isolate concepts of mind and body. A more direct challenge of the spatial unity comes f ...
Engineering of software-intensive systems is concerned with the creation and evolution of systems that shall exhibit desired properties in their execution as well as development environment. In this context, the motivation of this thesis, derived from curr ...
The utilization of digital image sequences is becoming increasingly important in modern imaging applications, includingHDTV, interactive video, teleconferencing, telerobotics, and medical imaging. Due to the immense amountof data in image sequences, high c ...
