Determining the boundaries of any processrdesign where feasible and safe operation is guaranteed has long been recognized as a major concern in process industries. Of additional ®alue is identifying the range of operating conditions where the design is most profitable. Although there is a lot of discussion in the open literature regarding design feasibility in terms of uncertainty of process ®a...

Software Defined Network interoperate with other technologies like flow visor and open flow. This enables slicing of the network in many ways, including MAC, IP and VLAN. It also enables seamless interconnections with multiple controllers, providing the ability to run multiple applications each on a different controller. The purpose of this interoperability analysis is to test the applications ...

Many chemical processes exhibit strong nonlinear dynamic behaviours which may present significant challenges to process operation and control, including input and output multiplicities. Input multiplicity refers to the phenomenon where different inputs (control action) result in the same steady state process output, which is commonly encountered in biochemical reactors. A process with input mul...

We present a generic library which provides means to specify partial differential equations using different discretization schemes, dimensions, and topologies. Due to the common interfaces for simulation domains as well as numerical algebra we have an overall high inter-operability.
