The Blockchain has been given great attention in recent literature among emerging technologies software architectures. More specifically, when verifiable transactions between untrusted parties are concerned a safe and reliable environment, its peculiar decentralized tamper-proof structure makes it suitable for vast class of business domains, such as Cloud Manufacturing, which is new paradigm th...

The growth of a two-phase cloud of a liquid fuel in a stagnant atmosphere is studied using computational fluid dynamic techniques. In order to predict the danger and hazard of such cloud in open atmosphere it is very important to determine the fuel concentration in the cloud, especially in the far field region from the fuel reservoir. The results show that with omission of droplets break up...

Model security for collaborative product development in a networked environment (or called networked manufacturing, grid manufacturing, and cloud manufacturing) is an important and also challenging research issue. An encryption based partial sharing approach for CAD models has been developed and presented in this paper. First, a random invertible decimal matrix to support the encryption approac...

Based on an industry-level data set for Chinese largeand medium-size manufacturing enterprises over the period of 1996–2006, the paper investigates the impacts of three technology acquisition channels, i.e. in-house R&D, foreign technology transfer and domestic technology transfer, on the productivity growth by using both the output elasticity and the rate of return methods. We find that in-hou...

The use of Cloud Computing has increasedrapidly in many organization .Cloud Computing provides many benefits in terms of low cost and accessibility of data. In addition Cloud Computing was predicted to transform the computing world from using local applications and storage into centralized services provided by organization.[10] Ensuring the security of Cloud Computing is major factor in the Clo...

This paper addresses the problem of harnessing cloud-based infrastructure for the kind of analytical workloads that abound in application domains ranging from computational finance and risk analytics to engineering and manufacturing. Often in this setting, software is not developed by a professional programmer, but on an ad hoc basis by Analysts in high-level programming environments such as R ...
