In today's companies and organizations, databases are omnipresent. They are the means to represent and store information. Therefore, they must evolve whenever the information architecture (semantic and structure) changes. Databases are subject to evolution ...
Companies are valued by their market competitiveness. To be competitive in the market, companies have to respond to their customer requirements as best as possible. To this end, companies introduce new products to the market to better capture customer requ ...
Support vector machines (SVMs) are one of the most successful algorithms for classification. However, due to their space and time requirements, they are not suitable for on-line learning, that is, when presented with an endless stream of training observati ...
The Point Ahead Angle Mechanism (PAAM) for ESA’s Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission will compensate the out-of-plane point-ahead angle between three satellites flying 5 million kilometres apart. The PAAM consists of a mirror supported by fle ...
In this paper, an oscillator based on a Vibrating Body Field Effect Transistor (VB-FET) working at 9.4MHz is presented. The electrical characteristics of this active MEM resonator are detailed for static and dynamic operation. The benefit of the intrinsic ...

Recent advances in the liquid-phase synthesis of metal nanostructures of different sizes and shapes are reviewed regarding their catalytic properties. The controlled synthesis of nanostructures is based on the colloid chemistry techniques in the solution, ...
(La,Sr)FeO3 mixed conducting perovskites are considered as interesting candidates for oxygen separation membranes but they suffer from limited structural stability in a large oxygen partial pressure (pO2) gradient, because of their propensity for chemical ...
Neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) are magnetic islands which increase locally the radial transport and therefore degrade the plasma performance. They are self-sustained by the bootstrap current perturbed by the enhanced radial transport. The confinement de ...
The use of requirements engineering (RE) in industry is hampered by a poor understanding of its practices and their benefits. Teaching RE at the university level is therefore an important endeavor. Shortly before students become engineers and enter the wor ...
A mathematical frame for modeling batch and semi-batch membrane filtration processes is provided. The approach followed in this work uses the feed concentrations as a basis for the calculations, rather than the concentration factor. A practical computation ...
