Age of Information: Concept, Metric and Tool for Network Control

The concept of information freshness has developed over the last few years into an active and rapidly growing area of research. It has become known as the Age of Information (AoI). After its initial formal introduction, it became clear that it was very relevant (if not crucial) for numerous applications, ranging from autonomous vehicle systems, the Internet of Things, real-time computing to dat…

Against and For Method

Can design processes constitute genuine forms of research? Of course they can. “Against and For Method” highlights exemplary cases of how studio architects teach architectural design, both with and without methodological and research approaches strictly in mind. This edited volume openly addresses deficiencies in studio teaching and proposes possibilities for integrating methodological appr…

Advances in Micro-Bioreactor Design for Organ Cell Studies

Engineering design of microbioreactors (MBRs) and organ-on-chip (OoC) devices can take advantage of established design science theory, in which systematic evaluation of functional concepts and user requirements are analyzed.

Advances in Industrial Design Engineering

A fast paced changing world requires dynamic methods and robust theories to enable designers to deal with the changing product development landscape successfully and hence make a difference in an increasingly interconnected and interdependent world

Sonic Design

Sonic design, understood as the activity of intentionally creating sound events, encompasses both musical craftsmanship and analytic reflection. It may include technologies for sound synthesis and processing, as well as traditional methods for sound generation by musical instruments or the human voice, and also principles of orchestration. Common to many instances of sonic design, is havin…

Fundamentals of Manufacturing Engineering Using Digital Visualization

This open access book offers a guide to core principles and practices of manufacturing engineering. It covers the design of, together with technological and measurement issues for, technical systems. Locating charts and setup schemes describing different machining processes are included. Concepts of product quality, with a focus on accuracy indicators, machining accuracy, roughness, and the imp…
