This paper proposes a novel reflective approach, orthogonal to the classic computational approach, whereby a system performs computation on its software architecture instead of individual components. The approach supports system’s self-management activities such as dynamic reconfiguration to be realized in a systematic and conceptually clean way and added to existing systems without modifying t...

Inspection of reflection line patterns is a standard way to check the quality of free form surfaces. In this paper, we describe an approach which enables the designer to control during the modeling process the reflection line pattern by approximating a specified family of reflection lines. Our method directly operates on the commonly used B-spline format, and produces fair surfaces. The approac...

A b s t r a c t In this paper, we briefly discuss the dynamic and functional approach to computer symbolic tensor analysis. The ccgrg package for Wolfram Language/Mathematica is used to illustrate this approach. Some examples of applications are attached.

In this article, we propose a fuzzy class relation assigning to each pair of finite fuzzy sets a degree to which they are equipollent, which indicates that they have the same number of elements. The concepts of fuzzy sets and fuzzy classes in the class of all countable sets are introduced, and several standard relations and constructions, such as the fuzzy power set and exponentiation, are defi...

We propose an algorithm to detect approximate reflection symmetry present in a set of volumetrically distributed points belonging to Rd containing a distorted reflection symmetry pattern. We pose the problem of detecting approximate reflection symmetry as the problem of establishing the correspondences between the points which are reflections of each other and determining the reflection symmetr...

Corporate image is an important organizational resource that enables to create, strengthen and sustain competitive advantage. Different antecedents have been identified for corporate image in the literature including quality of products and services, consumer consideration or distribution system. Green supply chain management appears to be an antecedent of corporate image too. This study examin...
