The maturity of IT, in conjunction with certain modern theories about Business Processes Management (BPM), has propitiated an appropriate scenario for meeting the needs of new business models, which are increasingly centred on mass customization. Integration solutions provided within the…

The chemical effects of acoustic cavitation are obtained in sono-reactors built-up from a vessel and an ultrasonic
source. In this paper, simulations of an existing sono-reactor are carried out, using a linear acoustics model, accounting
for the vibrations of the…

In the course of the last thirty years, research on the Islamic pottery of the Iberian peninsula has expanded spectacularly, both quantitatively and qualitatively, spurred on as much by the renewal of historiographical issues as by the multiplication of excavations,…
