This paper aims at a mathematical foundation of flexible information processing architectures that support the mobility and dynamics of systems by a formal system model.

A new partial differential model for monitoring and detecting copper corrosionproducts (mainly brochantite and cuprite) is proposed to provide predictive tools suitable for describing the evolution of damage induced on bronze specimens by sulfur dioxide (SO2) pollution. This model is characterized by the movement of a double free boundary. Numerical simulations show a nice agreement with experi...

Reverse supply chain is a process dealing with the backward flows of used/damaged products or materials. Reverse supply chain includes activities such as collection, inspection, reprocess, disposal and redistribution. A well-organized reverse supply chain can provide important advantages such as economic and environmental ones. In this study, we propose a general framework and formulate a m...
