Towards scalable information modeling of requirements architectures

The amount of data in large-scale software engineering contexts continues to grow and challenges efficiency of software engineering efforts. At the same time, information related to requirements plays a vital role in the success of software products and projects. To face the current challenges in software engineering information management, software companies need to reconsider the current models

Start-up Optimization of a Combined Cycle Power Plant

In the electricity market of today, with increasing demand for electricity production on short notice, the combined cycle power plant stands high regarding fast start-ups and efficiency. In this paper it has been shown how the dynamic start-up procedure of a combined cycle power plant can be optimized using JModelica. org, proposing a way to minimize the start-up time while maximizing the power pr

Nya Vägar: Report on the Nya Vägar Seminars on "Striving -- Jihad -- against social exclusion: New Ways of tackling discrimination through co-operation among Christians, Muslims, and other organisations"

Detailed report on five seminars held in Malmö and Leicester, exploring ways in which Christian, Muslim, and secular groups work together in multicultural contexts, using dialogue as a means of effective "striving/Jihad" against social discrimination and exclusion. Includes reflections by the Christian and Muslim authors

Effects of moisture and mechanical loading on wooden materials

In a previous paper (Mårtensson 1988 a), results of tests performed on hardboard in tension under cyclic humidity were presented and comparison with a suggested constitutive model was made. This paper presents the result of further work that has been carried out concerning modelling of the behaviour of tempered hardboard subjected to moisture loading combined with mechanical loading. Tests were ma

Contextual Inquiry and Requirements Shaping

A primary purpose of traditional systems analysis is seen as ‘capture’ or ‘elicitation’ of user requirements, in order to produce specifications as a basis for information systems design. Such a view presupposes that user requirements are pre-existing and clear, and that the particular ‘users’ concerned know what they are, and can therefore articulate them. We would argue that none of these assump

Some Fluid Dynamic Characteristics in the Scale-up of Rushton Turbine-Agitated Tanks

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett flertal produkter som framställs inom den kemiska och biotekniska industrin produceras i stora turbinomrörda tankar. Kvaliteten av produkten och utbytet av processen påverkas av blandningsförhållandena i dessa tankar. Blandningsförhållandena i processen påverkas av vätskans hastighet och dess intensitet. I olika regioner av reaktorn, impeller regionen och bulk regiTurbine-agitated tanks are used in chemical and biochemical applications to increase mixing which, in turn, affects the yield, productivity and product quality. The purpose of this work was to study the hydrodynamic influence on the scale-up of turbine-agitated tanks, commonly used in fermentation. Local turbulent flow parameters, the turbulent kinetic energy and the local energy dissipation rate,
