Reaching 2015 Paris Agreements means targeting zero-carbon emission worldwide societies by the second half of this century. It implies a wide-ranging transformation all industries, supported deployment numerous technologies at unprecedented industrial and time scales. This paper questions definition concept “upscaling”, often related to transitioning, used in different scientific communities wi...

Product configuration provides an important opportunity for taking advantage of a number of the benefits of mass customization. Mass customization is aimed at developing a wide external variety of products to satisfy individual customers, with managed internal diversity to prevent cost proliferation. In this context, we propose an iterative product configuration method applying fuzzy logic whic...

Based on the integration research, one multi-dimension integrated mode of CAPP and PDM was proposed including the integration of knowledge store dimension, knowledge transfer dimension and knowledge application dimension. In the integration of knowledge application dimension, an innovated integration method named key control function module was proposed. In knowledge transfer dimension integrat...

The stochastic volatility jump diffusion model with jumps in both return and volatility leads to a two-dimensional partial integro-differential equation (PIDE). We exploit a fast exponential time integration scheme to solve this PIDE. After spatial discretization and temporal integration, the solution of the PIDE can be formulated as the action of an exponential of a block Toeplitz matrix on a ...

Nowadays, Software Product Line Engineering (SPLE) is an emerging software engineering paradigm, which is based on the concept of reusing software artifacts gaining from the previous software development lifecycle. Researches concerning with domain analyzing, feature modeling (FM), common and variability analyzing processes have being developed for SPLE. So, this system proposes re-engineering ...

Driven by rapid technological developments, greater customer expectations, and increased product complexity, product development processes increasingly rely on the integration of dispersed specialist knowledge. Consequently, many industrial firms are changing the way they approach product development. Product development increasingly relies on knowledge integration across firm boundaries. Custo...

Introduction: In recent years curriculum reform and integrationwas done in many medical schools. The integrated curriculum isa popular concept all over the world. In Shiraz medical school,the reform was initiated by stablishing the horizontal basicscience integration model and Early Clinical Exposure (ECE)for undergraduate medical education. The purpose of this studywas to provide the required ...
