Towards Ontology-based Context Modeling for Manufacturing Applications

Drazen Nadoveza

Relevant and readily available information is a crucial basis for decision making, problem solving or performing knowledge-intensive work. The motivation for this thesis lays in the fact that in certain situations not all information provided by an applica ...

What We Can Learn about Business Modeling from Homeostasis

Gil Regev, Alain Wegmann

Business modeling methods most often model an organization’s value provision to its customers followed by the necessary activities and structure to deliver this value. These activities and structure are seen as infinitely malleable; they can be specified a ...

Nonlinearity in nanomechanical cantilevers

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo

Euler-Bernoulli beam theory is widely used to successfully predict the linear dynamics of micro-and nanocantilever beams. However, its capacity to characterize the nonlinear dynamics of these devices has not yet been rigorously assessed, despite its use in ...

From Composites to Service Systems: The Role of Emergence in Service Design

Alain Wegmann, Anshuman Bahadur Saxena

Service Design is an engineering endeavor to enrich some aspect of the real world through a man-made artifact. Systems approach to modeling reality is particularly relevant to Service Design as it seeks to explain reality as a composition of functional obs ...

Creative-Learning Innovation Cycle - CLIC

Vincent Nassar

WHY do certain leaders’ management of organizational resources encourage creative people engaged in New Product Development (NPD) to achieve high performance, on time, while other leaders’ practices foster frustration and delays? In this research project I ...

Computational Neuroscience Ontology: a new tool to provide semantic meaning to your models

Sean Lewis Hill

The diversity of modeling approaches in computational neuroscience makes model sharing, retrieval, reuse and reproducibility difficult and even sometimes impossible. To address this problem, standardized languages have been developed by and for the communi ...

To a cultural perspective of mixed reality events: a case study of event overflow in operas and concerts in mixed reality

Jean-François Lucas

Mixed reality defines the sharing of a space-time between the real and the virtual world. The definition of this concept is further extended when virtual worlds such as Second Life (SL) are included. Through cultural events such as concerts and operas, we ...

Towards a Theory of Glue

Simon Bliudze

We propose and study the notions of behaviour type and composition operator making a first step towards the definition of a formal framework for studying behaviour composition in a setting sufficiently general to provide insight into how the component-base ...

A mereotopological product relationship description approach for assembly oriented design

Aristeidis Matsokis

This paper describes a novel approach for integrated assembly modelling and planning. The main objective is to make assembly information accessible and exploitable by data management systems and computer-aided X tools in order to support product architects ...

An ontology-based approach for Product Lifecycle Management

Aristeidis Matsokis

Ontologies are rapidly becoming popular in various research fields. There is a tendency both in converting existing models into ontologies and in creating new models. In this work we are focusing on Closed-Loop Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) models. An ...
