Performance and manufacturability are two important issues that must be taken into account during MEMS design. Existing MEMS design models or systems follow a process-driven design paradigm, that is, design starts from the specification of process sequence or the customization…

This thesis examines the evolution of Internet based knowledge networks (e-knowledge networks) in the domain of sustainable development. The objective of this thesis is to use an engineering systems approach to understand knowledge networks, identify the barriers to their sustainability…

Currently, people involved in protection against disaster situations must
make the decisions about preparing and executing evacuation plans for potential
causes of disaster. Hence, it would be desirable to develop a system capable
of obtaining and analyzing evacuation plans…

El artículo desarrolla la temática de identidad profesional del Trabajo Social a partir de abordar los conceptos de tradición, historia, sentido, experiencia. Señala la presencia de la heterogeneidad en dicha construcción. Incorpora la categoría “identidad de frontera”, clave para comprender…

"En zonas semiáridas del centro de México la sobreexplotación de pastizales ha ocasionado severa reducción de su productividad. Su fisonomía se caracteriza por espacios abiertos con presencia de costras biológicas del suelo. Aunque este tipo de paisaje es representativo de…

"En el Altiplano Potosino, la especie vegetal utilizada para la producción de mezcal es Agave salmiana. La industria mezcalera, que carece de sistemas de explotación basados en el conocimiento biológico de la especie que utiliza como materia prima, puede causar…

The first edition of the CASPUR Summer School for Advanced Computing took place from August 29 to September 9th, 2005, in the ENI meeting center in the beautiful surroundings of Castel Gandolfo’s lake. The school has been invented to further…

This paper presents a proposal enabling the modelling of manufacturing processes independently of the structure and composition of the industrial plant where these processes will ultimately be implemented. The rationale for the proposal is in the incorporation of knowledge, supported…
