Integration of Reusable Systems
Author: Thouraya Bouabana-Tebibel
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3319047175
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
Software reuse and integration has been described as the process of creating software systems from existing software rather than building software systems from scratch. Whereas reuse solely deals with the artifacts creation, integration focuses on how reusable artifacts interact with the already existing parts of the specified transformation. Currently, most reuse research focuses on creating and integrating adaptable components at development or at compile time. However, with the emergence of ubiquitous computing, reuse technologies that can support adaptation and reconfiguration of architectures and components at runtime are in demand. This edited book includes 15 high quality research papers written by experts in information reuse and integration to cover the most recent advances in the field. These papers are extended versions of the best papers which were presented at IEEE International Conference on Information Reuse and Integration and IEEE International Workshop on Formal Methods Integration, which was held in San Francisco in August 2013.

Verification and Evaluation of Computer and Communication Systems
Author: Belgacem Ben Hedia
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030659550
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Verification and Evaluation of Computer and Communication Systems, VECoS 2020, which was supposed to be held in Xi’an, China, in October 2020, but was held virtually instead. The 19 full papers and 1 short paper presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 60 submissions. The aim of the VECoS conference is to bring together researchers and practitioners in the areas of verification, control, performance, and dependability evaluation in order to discuss state of the art and challenges in modern computer and communication systems in which functional and extra-functional properties are strongly interrelated. Thus, the main motivation for VECoS is to encourage the cross-fertilization between various formal verification and evaluation approaches, methods and techniques, and especially those developed for concurrent and distributed hardware/software systems. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: petri-net, simulation, and scheduling; formal modeling and verification, testing; and artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Advances on Broad-Band Wireless Computing, Communication and Applications
Author: Leonard Barolli
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319698117
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 898
Book Description
This book gathers the Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Broad-Band Wireless Computing, Communication and Applications, held on November 8–10, 2017 in Barcelona, Spain. Information networking is currently undergoing a rapid evolution. Different kinds of networks with different characteristics are emerging and being integrated in heterogeneous networks. As a result, there are many interconnected problems that can occur at different levels of the hardware and software design of communicating entities and communication networks. These networks are expected to manage increasing usage demand, provide support for a significant number of services, guarantee Quality of Service (QoS), and optimize the use of network resources. The success of all-IP networking and wireless technology has changed the lifestyles of people around the world, and advances in electronic integration and wireless communications will pave the way to providing access to wireless networks on the fly, as electronic devices can increasingly exchange information with each other virtually anytime and anywhere. The aim of this book is to provide the latest findings, methods and development techniques from both theoretical and practical perspectives regarding the emerging areas of broad-band and wireless computing.
