Crop straw gasification technologies are the most promising biomass gasification technologies and have great potential to be further developed in China. However, the commercialization development of gasification technology in China is slow. In this paper, the technical reliability and practicability of crop straw gasification technologies, the economic feasibility of gas supply stations, the ec...

One of the most significant paradigm shifts of software business management is that individual organizations no longer compete as single entities but as complex dynamic supply networks of interrelated participants. Understanding these intricate software supply networks is a difficult task for decision makers. This paper outlines a modelling technique for representing and reasoning about softwar...

Sensor and actor networks are used to monitor and control pipeline infrastructures. This paper discusses and compares different sensor and actor network architectures for water, gas, and oil pipeline infrastructures monitoring. These architectures are wired networks, wireless networks, separated wired and wireless networks, and integrated wired and wireless networks. The paper also discusses th...

The current study proposes a two-step approach for pore facies characterization in the carbonate reservoirs with an example from the Kangan and Dalanformations in the South Pars gas field. In the first step, pore facies were determined based on Mercury Injection Capillary Pressure (MICP) data incorporation with the Hierarchical Clustering Analysis (HCA) method. In the next step, polynomial meta...

Nowadays, the expansion of the cities is an inevitable necessity; increasing the dependence of the citizens on motor vehicles and, consequently, making development of the transportation networks a necessity rather than an option. Thus, increasing car ownership and car use has created many problems for the cities, such as increasing greenhouse gas emissions, environmental pollution, casualties o...
