The concept of Supply Chain Management (SCM) embraced the concern for environmental degradation and social responsibility in business management. This inclusiveness of ideas to SCM is being deliberated by the researchers as Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM). The research paper employs integrative literature review approach to review, assess critically, and synthesize representative lit...

This paper deals with dimensional data. Examples of dimensions are space and time. Thus, temporal, spatial, spatiotemporal values are examples of dimensional data. We define the notion of dimensional object, extending an object-oriented ODMG-like type system to include dimensional types. We then address the problem of querying dimensional objects. Linguistic constructs are introduced that allow...

The motivation to improve systematic application of software analysis tools by improving characteristics of software analysis tools originates from important aspects of modern software development regarding complexity and heterogeneity; importance of analysis and control during this process; need to keep consistency of the followed results. During the identification of the factors affecting the...

To extract useful information from high-dimensional geometric or structural data, we must find low-dimensional projections that are informative and interesting to look at. The conventional, manual-interaction methods used for this purpose are ineffective when the dimensionality of the data is high, or when the geometric models are complex. Standard methods for determining useful low-dimensional...

Sieve trays are widely used in the gas- liquid contactors such as distillation and absorption towers. In this article, a three-dimensional, two phase CFD model using Euler-Euler framework was developed to simulate a distillation tower with two sieve trays. Hydrodynamic simulation of air and water system in different rates of gas phase was carried out and velocity distribution parameters, clear ...

This chapter introduces global visibility computation using Grassmann Algebra. Visibility computation is a fundamental task in computer graphics, as in many other scientific domains. While it is well understood in two dimensions, this does not remain true in higher dimensional spaces. Grassmann Algebra allows to think about visibility at a high level of abstraction, and to design a framework fo...
