A crowdsourcing-based QoE evaluation of an immersive VR autonomous driving experience
(IEEE, 2021-06-30)Due to COVID-19, crowdsourcing has gained momentum as an alternative methodology for continuing research and for Quality of Experience (QoE) assessment. Employing this approach, we remotely evaluated the user perceived QoE ... -
Composite films of thermoplastic starch and CaC12 extracted from eggshells for extendiing food shelf-life
(MDPI, 2021-09-03)Calcium chloride (CaCl2) has been widely used to maintain the quality of fresh-cut fruits and vegetables because it stabilizes and strengthens the membrane system against fungal attacks. It is mainly applied via spray ... -
A workflow management framework for the dynamic generation of workflows that is independent of the application environment
(IEEE, 2021-06-30)Workflow is a well-known and widely used technology in business management. Traditional workflow solutions are designed for humans and generally use a graphical representation of workflow elements that reflect the involvement ... -
A framework for the dynamic generation of workflows for network management
(IEEE, 2021-06-30)A demonstration of the application of dynamically generated workflows to the management of a network environment is presented. A proposed workflow management framework (WMF) uses dynamically generated workflows to control ... -
Progressing plastics circularity: a review of mechano-biocatalytic approaches for waste plastic (re)valorization
(Frontiers Media, 2021-06-22)Inspirational concepts, and the transfer of analogs from natural biology to science and engineering, has produced many excellent technologies to date, spanning vaccines to modern architectural feats. This review highlights ... -
Industry 4.0 smart reconfigurable manufacturing machines
