Configuration of product plan based on case reasoning of extenics

Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2021
Through extenics-based case reasoning, this research puts forward a method to configure the modules of complex machine products. Firstly, the knowledge on the process of product design was represented, and the convergence modes of design plans were analyzed, with the aid of product semantics and the knowledge representation model of the primitives ...

Interpreting Sustainability in Design: How Design Cues Shape Evaluation in Symbolic Product Categories

Journal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present research examines how consumers interpret visible manifestations of circular production and how these interpretations shape product evaluation in symbolic product categories. Prior research has primarily examined sustainability as an evaluative attribute, with comparatively less attention devoted to how sustainability cues embedded

Columbo: A Reasoning Framework for Kubernetes' Configuration Space

Proceedings of the 16th ACM/SPEC International Conference on Performance Engineering
Resource managers such as Kubernetes are rapidly evolving to support low-latency and scalable computing paradigms such as serverless and granular computing. As a result, Kubernetes supports dozens of workload deployment models and exposes roughly 1,600 configuration parameters.

Managing with CARE: Family‐Level Outcomes of Environmental, Social, and Governance Practices in Family Firms

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ESG practices offer various benefits for family firms; however, there has been limited focus on how these practices can specifically advantage the owning family. To address this gap, we conduct a multiple‐case study of six Italian family firms.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation reveals two cortical pathways for visual body processing [PDF]

, 2007
Visual recognition of human bodies is more difficult for upside down than upright presentations. This body inversion effect implies that body perception relies on configural rather than local processing.

When Aviation CSR Efforts Are Not Enough: How Do We Inspire Airline Passengers to Offset Their Travel Footprints?

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Voluntary carbon offsetting programs (VCOPs) are available for airline passengers who want to take action and offset their scope 3 emissions. Yet, their uptake is very limited. In this study, we propose an integrated theoretical model involving the norm activation theory and protection motivation theory to understand airline passengers ...

Deliberative reason and the effect of minipublic configurations

European Political Science Review
AbstractIn exploring deliberative dynamics within mini-publics, it has been observed that initial group-building activities play a crucial role in enhancing deliberative reasoning. However, the influence of liberal democratic practices such as voting mechanisms and the inclusion of strategic or representative stakeholders, on deliberative processes is ...

Structural Constraint-Based Modeling and Reasoning with Basic Configuration Cells [PDF]

, 2001
Configuration tasks are an important application area in engineering design. The proposed solving techniques use either a constraintbased framework or a logic-based approach. We propose a methodology to obtains desired configuration using basic configuration cells(BCC).
