Considered by many authors as a technique for modelling stochastic, dynamic and discretely evolving systems, this technique has gained widespread acceptance among the practitioners who want to represent and improve complex systems. Since DES is a technique applied in incredibly different areas, this book reflects many different points of view about DES, thus, all authors describe how it is understood and applied within their context of work, providing an extensive understanding of what DES is. It can be said that the name of the book itself reflects the plurality that these points of view represent. The book embraces a number of topics covering theory, methods and applications to a wide rang...
This book attempts to bring together selected recent advances, tools, application and new ideas in manufacturing systems. Manufacturing system comprise of equipment, products, people, information, control and support functions for the competitive development to satisfy market needs. It provides a comprehensive collection of papers on the latest fundamental and applied industrial research. The book will be of great interest to those involved in manufacturing engineering, systems and management and those involved in manufacturing research.
The business problem of having inefficient processes, imprecise process analyses and simulations as well as non-transparent artificial neuronal network models can be overcome by an easy-to-use modeling concept. With the aim of developing a flexible and efficient approach to modeling, simulating and optimizing processes, this paper proposes a flexible Concept of Neuronal Modeling (CoNM). The modeling concept, which is described by the modeling language designed and its mathematical formulation and is connected to a technical substantiation, is based on a collection of novel sub-artifacts. As these have been implemented as a computational model, the set of CoNM tools carries out novel kinds of Neuronal Process Modeling (NPM), Neuronal Process Simulations (NPS) and Neuronal Process Optimizations (NPO). The efficacy of the designed artifacts was demonstrated rigorously by means of six experiments and a simulator of real industrial production processes.
This book introduces a variety of treatment technologies, such as physical, chemical, and biological methods for the treatment of gas emissions, wastewater, and solid waste. It provides a useful source of information for engineers and specialists, as well as for undergraduate and postgraduate students, in the areas of environmental science and engineering.
Innovation Strategies for the Food Industry: Tools for Implementation, Second Edition explores how process technologies and innovations are implemented in the food industry, by i.e., detecting problems and providing answers to questions of modern applications. As in all science sectors, Internet and big data have brought a renaissance of changes in the way academics and researchers communicate and collaborate, and in the way that the food industry develops. The new edition covers emerging skills of food technologists and the integration of food science and technology knowledge into the food chain. This handbook is ideal for all relevant actors in the food sector (professors, researchers, stu...

Azken urteotan, unibertsitatearen gizarte erantzukizuneko politika instituzionala sustatu da, gure fakultateen eta sailen ahaleginak modu instituzionalean antolatzeko gizarte-justiziarako bereziki garrantzitsuak diren gaietan, hala nola emakumeen eta gizonen arteko berdintasunean. Azken plan estrategikoaren ildotik, jesuiten unibertsitatea izanik dugun izaera eta gure gizarte erantzukizuneko planak garapen jasangarrirako helburuekin (GJH) lerrokatu dira. GJHen helburua pertsonen bizi-baldintzak nabarmen hobetzea da, batez ere garapen bidean dauden herrialdeetan eta bereziki kalteberak diren kolektiboetan, hala nola nesketan eta emakumeetan. Gure izaerari eta azken urteotan gizarte-erantzukizuneko gaietan egindako ibilbideari erreparatuta, Deustuko Unibertsitateak zenbait GJH identifikatu ditu zeharka eta unibertsitate elkarte moduan lan egiteko. Aldaketa sozial eta kulturalak eskatzen dituzten helburuak dira, eta gure unibertsitate jardueratik ekarpenak egiteko gaitasuna eta erantzukizuna dugu. 5. helburua, emakumeen eta gizonen arteko genero berdintasuna lortu nahi duena hain zuzen ere, horietako bat da.
