This book offers a selection of papers from the 2016 International Conference on Software Process Improvement (CIMPS’16), held between the 12th and 14th of October 2016 in Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes, México. The CIMPS’16 is a global forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, results, experiences and concerns in the different aspects of software engineering with a focus on, but not limited to, software processes, security in information and communication technology, and big data. The main topics covered include: organizational models, standards and methodologies, knowledge management, software systems, applications and tools, information and communication technologies and processes in non-software domains (mining, automotive, aerospace, business, health care, manufacturing, etc.) with a clear focus on software process challenges.
Computer-aided process engineering (CAPE) plays a key design and operations role in the process industries, from the molecular scale through managing complex manufacturing sites. The research interests cover a wide range of interdisciplinary problems related to the current needs of society and industry. ESCAPE 23 brings together researchers and practitioners of computer-aided process engineering interested in modeling, simulation and optimization, synthesis and design, automation and control, and education. The proceedings present and evaluate emerging as well as established research methods and concepts, as well as industrial case studies. - Contributions from the international community using computer-based methods in process engineering - Reviews the latest developments in process systems engineering - Emphasis on industrial and societal challenges
There is a growing interest in the use of gasification to contribute to the energy share, as a more efficient alternative to fossil fuels combustion, especially with coal and biomass in large power plants. In order to unveil the effect of time in the degradation of the gasifier operation and the influence that operating conditions have over reactor performance, the evolution of controlled and observed variables should be studied. Two statistical techniques are used in the present work: (i) multiple regression analysis, which provides information about the relationship between several predictor variables and a dependent variable, and (ii) time series analysis, which may allow identifying the nature of the phenomenon associated with reactor degradation as a function of time. The final goal consists of evaluating and predicting the reactor natural instability by monitoring CO2 emissions. Results demonstrate the capability of forecasting techniques to predict reactor degradation with time. Thus, the tendencies of the variables and parameters in the gasifier may be better determined to avoid faulty operation.
This work presents a multi-period waste management multi-objective optimization, considering economic and environmental issues. The specific behavior of the considered waste management treatments is included in the optimization problem as black-box models based on practical industrial practice computing utility requirements and emissions. To achieve more realistic solutions, the estimation of waste treatment costs and environmental impacts has been explicitly added to the assessment scheme, as well as the constraints of the operating conditions in the treatment units and the fulfillment of environmental regulations for water and air emissions. This framework is applied to an industrial based case study and used to analyze the waste mixing potential. Two main strategies are proposed to tackle the problem using a rigorous mathematical problem formulation. The performance of both strategies is compared in terms of solution quality and computational complexity with the final aim of finding an efficient methodology for posing the heat and waste management integration problem in a future work.

The 24th European Symposium on Computer Aided Process Engineering creates an international forum where scientific and industrial contributions of computer-aided techniques are presented with applications in process modeling and simulation, process synthesis and design, operation, and process optimization. The organizers have broadened the boundaries of Process Systems Engineering by inviting contributions at different scales of modeling and demonstrating vertical and horizontal integration. Contributions range from applications at the molecular level to the strategic level of the supply chain and sustainable development. They cover major classical themes, at the same time exploring a new range of applications that address the production of renewable forms of energy, environmental footprints and sustainable use of resources and water.

The University of Jyvaskyla is proud to welcome the 12th edition of the European Conference in Cyber Warfare to Jyvaskyla. We intend to make this event as enjoyable as possible both on scientific and human aspects. As in previous years, ECCWS will address elements of both theory and practice of all aspects of Information Warfare and Security, and offers an opportunity for academics, practitioners and consultants involved in these areas to come together and exchange ideas. We also wish to attract operational papers dealing with the critical issue that the modern world has to face regarding the evolution of cyberwarfare capabilities development by nation states. The programme for the event promises an extensive range of peer-reviewed papers, networking opportunities and presentations from leaders in the field."
