Achieving a balance between reducing environmental impact and ensuring economic viability is essential for Originals Equipment Manufacturers adopting circular product strategies. A critical aspect of this process is determining the optimal time to take a product out of operation to facilitate the implementing of an appropriate circular strategy. Ho...
This study tackles the growing global concern about municipal waste management, particularly in cities like the Grand Guayaquil Metropolitan Area (GGA). Through realistic field studies on in situ household waste generation and geographic information system (GIS) tools, this work offers a framework to predict the quantities and types of recyclable h...
Plastic materials used by the general population mostly derive from synthetic petrochemical polymers. In Guayaquil, the most generated type of plastic waste is Polyethylene Terephthalate with 15.13 g/day/capita, representing 37% of the total domestic plastic waste, which also represents close to 9.5% of the total domestic waste generation. In addit...
Understanding how to promote more sustainable behaviors (not only including recycling but also going beyond) across various contexts remains a key crucial challenge for policymakers and researchers. The norm activation model (NAM) provides valuable frameworks for determining the different psycho-social factors that influence different kinds of pro-...
The Industrial Revolution drives the digitization of society and industry, entailing Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) that form ecosystems where system owners and third parties share responsibilities within and across industry domains. Such ecosystems demand smart CPSs that continuously align their architecture and governance to the concerns of variou...
Systems for managing municipal solid waste are typically ineffective in developing nations because of governments' deficient financial and administrative frameworks, poor rules, and a lack of suitable infrastructure and human resources. The informal sector plays an essential role in these systems by reprocessing waste into secondary raw materials,...
Cyberattacks targeting Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are becoming increasingly concerning since the well-known Stuxnet attack. These systems are mostly based on Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), which have low cybersecurity protection levels that make them vulnerable to the next generation of cyberattacks. Therefore, building resilience to such...
The present study investigated citizens’ self-reported pro-environmental behaviors by adopting a survey and bootstrapping via structural equation modeling for five different personality traits. Adopting one traditional psycho-social theory, this study investigates how motivations, values, intentions, norms, and behaviors are connected by using diff...
The success of the Farm to Fork strategy, aimed at the transition to the sustainability of European agriculture, will depend on the technological solutions that already exist and the ones that will be developed. These new technologies will allow the integration of several factors (e.g.: soil properties, climatic factors, intrinsic factors of the cu...
Inspired by the concept of the health of the human body, the state of health (SoH) determination of products has been gaining importance for preventive maintenance and product lifetime extension. In electronics, Remaining Useful Life (RUL) estimates often focus on temperature as the key ageing parameter. They neglect other influential factors such...
Industrial Product-Service Systems (IPSS) are increasingly dominant in several sectors. Predominant value-adding services provided for industrial assets such as production systems, electric power plants, and car fleets are remote asset maintenance, monitoring, control, and reconfiguration. IPSS designers lack methods and tools supporting them in sy...

Industrial Product-Service Systems (IPS²) have been increasingly researched and practiced in a variety of fields and sectors. Nevertheless, such solutions are not as significantly implemented as expected by the CIRP keynote in 2010: it is not a dominant business of manufacturing companies today despite their economic and environmental advantages. O...
The agricultural IoT infrastructure transformation is enabling crop producers to receive status information from interconnect farms, crops, crop/field, equipment, storage and livestock. Agricultural corporations down to small family farms are now able to monitor the entire plantation ecosystem, spanning from: crop field physical parameters (tempera...
Due to complex sets of interrelated activities in aircraft heavy maintenance (AHM), many airlines have to deal with substantial aircraft maintenance downtime. The scheduling problem in AHM is regarded as an NP-hard problem. Using exact algorithms can be time-consuming or even infeasible. This article proposes genetic algorithms for solving the reso...
Common project management methodologies do not consider project task uncertainty for determining appropriate task execution strategies. This article proposes an actionable task-model based approach to integrating uncertainty considerations in project management. The authors developed the article in an industrial setting, interviewing experienced pr...
Industrial Product-Service Systems (IPSS) denote a service-oriented (SO) way of providing access to CPS capabilities. The design of such systems bears high risk due to uncertainty in requirements related to service function and behavior, operation environments, and evolving customer needs. Such risks and uncertainties are well known in the IT secto...
In addition to the trend of Digitalization, the path to Digital Transformation in organizations is playing an increasing role today. Digital Transformation of companies requires a structured way and cannot be realized within one step. For this purpose, maturity models should reflect an initial status of companies and show a way for improvement. An...
As blockchain technology is emerging, technology intensive sectors are realizing the potential of blockchain and are starting to implement it into their day-to-day business operations. With its decentralized distribution, secure verification through public-private-key cryptography and its immutability, blockchain technology can improve and shape th...
In large organizations, it is not trivial to spread knowledge to all teams. Often, individual teams need to handle similar topics and re-invent the wheel. Another scenario is that a group of people with a common role (for example ?guild? in Spotify model) has to distill their practices to make them shareable. Trainings should have empower participa...
Cybersecurity has become one of the most crucial challenges in the automotive development lifecycle. The upcoming ISO/SAE 21434 standard provides only a generic framework that is insufficient to derive concrete design methods. This article proposes an actionable cybersecurity development lifecycle model that provides concrete action and work produc...
The maturity of teams is related to the specific solutions they are building and maintaining. Every team needs generic skills and capabilities for successful teamwork. However, depending on the used technology, particular skills and qualifications are required to form a mature team to handle the solution‐related products and services adequately. Es...
