Book Next Generation Integrated Simulation Environments

Download or read book Next Generation Integrated Simulation Environments written by Leila Jalali and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simulation and Modeling is one of the most important and widely used techniques in many research areas. The available simulation tools are mostly meant for standalone use and do not attempt to address the overall scenarios. It would be advantageous and cost-effective to combine these models thus forming a new integrated simulation model based on individual existing components to model complex scenarios and understand the joint effect of multiple phenomena. In this book, we discuss a framework to integrate multiple autonomous simulation models into an integrated environment wherein we can model and execute complex scenarios involving multiple simulators. Our techniques are implemented in RAISE (Reflective Architecture for Integrated Simulation Environments); specifically, we design meta-level synchronizer and data exchange modules that support flexible constraint specification while supporting high levels of concurrency in the execution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simulation and Modeling is one of the most important and widely used techniques in many research areas. Simulation is particularly indispensable for studying large-scale and complex systems, which can be otherwise intractable to closed-form mathematical or analytical solutions. One of the limitations of simulation models is that they are typically designed to be executed and evaluated independently. The available simulation tools are mostly meant for standalone use and do not attempt to address the overall scenarios. It would be advantageous and cost-effective to combine these models thus forming a new integrated simulation model based on individual existing components to model complex scenarios and understand the joint effect of multiple phenomena. This will allow decision makers to explore alternatives and conduct low cost experiments in an integrated environment. The integration of different simulation models can not be done easily, since each of the individual models are implemented in part with different simulators which do not interoperate with one another. We need to integrate different expert simulation models that each captures relevant aspects of the real world. In this thesis, we propose a framework to integrate multiple autonomous simulation models into an integrated environment wherein we can model and execute complex scenarios involving multiple simulators. Our techniques are implemented in RAISE (Reflective Architecture for Integrated Simulation Environments); specifically, we design meta-level synchronizer and data exchange modules that support flexible constraint specification while supporting high levels of concurrency in the execution. We evaluate our proposed techniques via a detailed case study from the emergency response domain by integrating different real-world simulators - a fire simulator (CFAST), an evacuation simulator (Drillsim), a transportation simulator (TranSim), and a communication simulator (LTEsim). We believe that our proposed techniques will serve as fundamental tools and building blocks for building the next generation integrated simulation environments.

Book Neural Network Simulation Environments

Download or read book Neural Network Simulation Environments written by Josef Skrzypek and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neural Network Simulation Environments describes some of the best examples of neural simulation environments. All current neural simulation tools can be classified into four overlapping categories of increasing sophistication in software engineering. The least sophisticated are undocumented and dedicated programs, developed to solve just one specific problem; these tools cannot easily be used by the larger community and have not been included in this volume. The next category is a collection of custom-made programs, some perhaps borrowed from other application domains, and organized into libraries, sometimes with a rudimentary user interface. More recently, very sophisticated programs started to appear that integrate advanced graphical user interface and other data analysis tools. These are frequently dedicated to just one neural architecture/algorithm as, for example, three layers of interconnected artificial `neurons' learning to generalize input vectors using a backpropagation algorithm. Currently, the most sophisticated simulation tools are complete, system-level environments, incorporating the most advanced concepts in software engineering that can support experimentation and model development of a wide range of neural networks. These environments include sophisticated graphical user interfaces as well as an array of tools for analysis, manipulation and visualization of neural data. Neural Network Simulation Environments is an excellent reference for researchers in both academia and industry, and can be used as a text for advanced courses on the subject.

Book Knowledge Based Intelligent Information and Engineering Systems

Download or read book Knowledge Based Intelligent Information and Engineering Systems written by Vasile Palade and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-08-28 with total page 1495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During recent decades we have witnessed not only the introduction of automation into the work environment but we have also seen a dramatic change in how automation has influenced the conditions of work. While some 30 years ago the addition of a computer was considered only for routine and boring tasks in support of humans, the balance has dramatically shifted to the computer being able to perform almost any task the human is willing to delegate. The very fast pace of change in processor and information technology has been the main driving force behind this development. Advances in automation and especially Artificial Intelligence (AI) have enabled the formation of a rather unique team with human and electronic members. The team is still supervised by the human with the machine as a subordinate associate or assistant, sharing responsibility, authority and autonomy over many tasks. The requirement for teaming human and machine in a highly dynamic and unpredictable task environment has led to impressive achievements in many supporting technologies. These include methods for system analysis, design and engineering and in particular for information processing, for cognitive and complex knowledge [1] engineering .

Book Enterprise Inter  and Intra Organizational Integration

Download or read book Enterprise Inter and Intra Organizational Integration written by Kurt Kosanke and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-06-05 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The international initiative on Enterprise Inter- and Intra-Organisational Integration (EI3-IC) had the objective to increase both international consen sus (IC) and public awareness on enterprise integration. In these proceedings we intend to present the current status in inter- and intra-organisational inte gration for electronic commerce and thereby to further increase awareness and consensus within academia and industry about enterprise inter-and intra organisational integration. The conference proceedings contain the papers presented at the ICEIMT conference in Valencia, Spain, selected papers presented at the different workshops and three papers on the initiative itself: overview, history and results. The proceedings follow the conference structure with each section (Parts 2 to 5) starting with the workgroup reports, followed by a particular view on the section theme and additional papers either presented at the con ference or during the related workshop. Section editorials discuss the differ ent contributions. As stated in the paper by Nell and Goranson in section 1 the results from all workshops indicate the important role of business processes in the area of e-commerce and virtual enterprises. Sharing relevant knowledge between co operating partners and making it available for decision support at all levels of management and across organisational boundaries will significantly en hance the trust between the partners on the different levels of partner opera tions (strategy, policy, operation and transaction). Clearly business process modelling can significantly enhance establishment, operation and decom mission of the required collaboration.

This book was released on 2021-06-16 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern greenhouse technology has revolutionized the food supply chain scenario over the past 40 years. Closed-field cultivation by means of agri-cubes, plant factories, vertical farming structures, and roof-top solar greenhouses has become the backbone of sustainable agriculture for producing all-year-round fresh fruits and vegetables. This book is an attempt to explore several profound questions such as how digital technology and simulation models have saved energy in commercial greenhouses, and why growers prefer LPWAN sensors and IoT monitoring devices over the traditional timer-based controllers? How artificial intelligence is capable of performing microclimate prediction and control, and what considerations should be taken into account for implementing desiccant evaporative cooling systems? With case-study examples and field experiments, each chapter highlights some of the most recent solutions and adaptation strategies toward improving the efficiency and sustainability of closed-field crop production systems.
