Total Cost of Ownership of melting furnaces: application of a prototypal model to aluminum die casting producers
After reviewing current literature on the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) methodology and its application to manufacturing contexts, we propose an application of this methodology to secondary aluminum melting furnaces. A prototypal calculation model is created and tested through three case studies of aluminum die casting companies. We illustrate the model structure and input data used to calculate the studied furnaces TCO. At last, results of the model test are presented and possible developments of the prototypal model are briefly discussed

High-Performance Modelling and Simulation for Big Data Applications
This open access book was prepared as a Final Publication of the COST Action IC1406 “High-Performance Modelling and Simulation for Big Data Applications (cHiPSet)“ project. Long considered important pillars of the scientific method, Modelling and Simulation have evolved from traditional discrete numerical methods to complex data-intensive continuous analytical optimisations. Resolution, scale, and accuracy have become essential to predict and analyse natural and complex systems in science and engineering. When their level of abstraction raises to have a better discernment of the domain at hand, their representation gets increasingly demanding for computational and data resources. On the other hand, High Performance Computing typically entails the effective use of parallel and distributed processing units coupled with efficient storage, communication and visualisation systems to underpin complex data-intensive applications in distinct scientific and technical domains. It is then arguably required to have a seamless interaction of High Performance Computing with Modelling and Simulation in order to store, compute, analyse, and visualise large data sets in science and engineering. Funded by the European Commission, cHiPSet has provided a dynamic trans-European forum for their members and distinguished guests to openly discuss novel perspectives and topics of interests for these two communities. This cHiPSet compendium presents a set of selected case studies related to healthcare, biological data, computational advertising, multimedia, finance, bioinformatics, and telecommunications

Towards Green Metaverse Networking Technologies, Advancements and Future Directions
As the Metaverse is iteratively being defined, its potential to unleash the
next wave of digital disruption and create real-life value becomes increasingly
clear. With distinctive features of immersive experience, simultaneous
interactivity, and user agency, the Metaverse has the capability to transform
all walks of life. However, the enabling technologies of the Metaverse, i.e.,
digital twin, artificial intelligence, blockchain, and extended reality, are
known to be energy-hungry, therefore raising concerns about the sustainability
of its large-scale deployment and development. This article proposes Green
Metaverse Networking for the first time to optimize energy efficiencies of all
network components for Metaverse sustainable development. We first analyze
energy consumption, efficiency, and sustainability of energy-intensive
technologies in the Metaverse. Next, focusing on computation and networking, we
present major advancements related to energy efficiency and their integration
into the Metaverse. A case study of energy conservation by incorporating
semantic communication and stochastic resource allocation in the Metaverse is
presented. Finally, we outline the critical challenges of Metaverse sustainable
development, thereby indicating potential directions of future research towards
the green Metaverse
Edge cloud architectures : a survey
Nowadays the number of connected devices is growing sharply. Mobile phones and other IoT devices are inherent parts of everyday life and used everywhere. The amount of data generated by IoT devices and mobile phones is enormous, which causes network congestions. In turn, the usage of centralized cloud architecture increases delay and cause jitter. To address those issues the research community discussed the new trend of decentralization – edge computing.
There are different edge compute architectures suggested by various researchers. Some are more popular and supported by global companies. Most of those architectures have similarities. In this research, we reviewed seven edge compute architectures. This thesis is a comparative analysis carried out by using key attributes and presentation of the Venn diagram to select the right edge compute architecture
