“…The first relates to the difficulty of estimating the optimal number of workers in our system to efficiently run. While the worker allocation is still largely done using a trial and error approach, we are investigating more sophisticated approaches based on formal models of distributed computation, such as Petri Nets [30].…”

Abstract. CORE, a harvesting service offering access to millions of open access research papers from around the world, has shifted its harvesting process from following a monolithic approach to the adoption of a microservices infrastructure. In this paper, we explain how we rearranged and re-scheduled our old ingestion pipeline, present CORE's move to managing microservices and outline the tools we use in a new and optimised ingestion system. In addition, we discuss the inefficiencies of our old harvesting process, the advantages, and challenges of our new ingestion system and our future plans. We conclude that via the adoption of microservices architecture we managed to achieve a scalable and distributed system that would assist with CORE's future performance and evolution.

A common approach to increase reliability and efficiency of manufacturing systems is optimal scheduling. In this paper, we consider scheduling problems for a specific type of systems where batch processes are running in parallel. The goal is to schedule the interaction between the parallel processes, in the form of energy flows, to minimize a desired objective. We make use of a max-plus approach in the formulation of the scheduling problem and use this formulation in the optimization subsequently. This framework has been used to formulate and optimize a case study for the production of calcium silicate stones.

“…Inherently, the basic components of a Petri net, the concepts of marking and firing. Petri nets (PNs) introduced by C. A. Petri [27] were originally intended as a means for the representation of the interaction, logical sequence and synchronization among activities which are only of a logical nature [26]. A PN is a directed bipartite graph which comprises a set of places P, a set of transitions T, and a set of directed arcs defined by input and output incidence application (Pre and Post).…”
