As the world becomes more interdependent and computing grows more collaborative, there is a need for new abstractions and tools to help users work together. We recently introduced entangled queries – a mechanism for information exchange between database qu ...
On April 2010, the first complete draft of new Model Code 2010 was published. It introduced a number of innovative design approaches, some of them with respect to shear and punching shear. Contrary to Model Code 90 (or some national and international codes ...
The monograph advocates rigorous system design as a coherent and accountable model-based process leading from requirements to correct implementations. It presents the current state of the art in system design, discusses its limitations, and identifies poss ...
The development of state-of-the-art wireless communication transceivers in semiconductor technology is a challenging process due to complexity and stringent requirements of modern communication standards such as IEEE 802.11n. This tutorial paper describes ...
This paper describes the challenges faced in ICTD by reviewing the lessons learned from a project geared at improving the livelihood of marginal farmers in India through wireless sensor networks. Insufficient user participation, lack of attention to user n ...
Today, interactive architecture plays an increasingly important role in urban milieus. However, in terms of design principles and guidelines in the age of digital architecture, the design and construction of interactive skins has been under-explored. A new ...
Organized around a holistic design approach, this class examined the synthetic relationship between performance and design in addressing issues of sustainability in the built environment. The workshop introduced the theories behind a resource-efficient bui ...
This paper reports on the design and construction of a lightweight GFRP roof structure in Basel, Switzerland. The sandwich construction allowed for an integration of static, building physical and architectural functions that enabled the prefabrication of t ...
This report reviews recent developments in ethylbenzene (EB) manufacturing technologies and studies in detail the suggested process; Production of Ethylbenzene via Side Alkylation of Toluene by Methanol. The desired amount of ethylbenzene as the product is ...
In this paper, a formal engineering design synthesis methodology based on evolutionary computation is presented, with special emphasis on the design and optimization of distributed independent systems. A case study concerned with design of a sensory system ...
