Reflection and Software Engineering
This book presents the state of the art of research and development of computational reflection in the context of software engineering. Reflection has attracted considerable attention recently in software engineering, particularly from object-oriented researchers and professionals. The properties of transparency, separation of concerns, and extensibility supported by reflection have largely been accepted as useful in software development and design; reflective features have been included in successful software development technologies such as the Java language. The book offers revised versions of papers presented first at a workshop held during OOPSLA'99 together with especially solicited contributions. The papers are organized in topical sections on reflective and software engineering foundations, reflective software adaptability and evolution, reflective middleware, engineering Java-based reflective languages, and dynamic reconfiguration through reflection.
Seeking Closure
Jacob Brill spent his entire career in the murky and violent world of counterespionage. His missions were referred to in hushed tones as "black ops." They were sanctioned by the US government but publicly were vehemently disavowed. That portion of his life has long been in his rear-view mirror. Unlike many of his former colleagues, Brill has successfully transitioned into being an almost ordinary citizen and loving grandfather. It is a life he had grown to love and with which he is quite comfortable. Then fate and some very bad people step in and force him to return to his former self and the secret world he had left behind. They attacked him in the worst possible way, and those responsible would pay the price. He soon learned of a plot far deeper than he had anticipated. The more he discovered, the more he realized that this would be his most difficult mission.
Development Methodologies for Big Data Analytics Systems
This book presents research in big data analytics (BDA) for business of all sizes. The authors analyze problems presented in the application of BDA in some businesses through the study of development methodologies based on the three approaches – 1) plan-driven, 2) agile and 3) hybrid lightweight. The authors first describe BDA systems and how they emerged with the convergence of Statistics, Computer Science, and Business Intelligent Analytics with the practical aim to provide concepts, models, methods and tools required for exploiting the wide variety, volume, and velocity of available business internal and external data - i.e. Big Data – and provide decision-making value to decision-makers. The book presents high-quality conceptual and empirical research-oriented chapters on plan-driven, agile, and hybrid lightweight development methodologies and relevant supporting topics for BDA systems suitable to be used for large-, medium-, and small-sized business organizations.
Engineering Distributed Objects
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Engineering Distributed Objects, EDO 2000, held in November 2000 in Davis, California, USA.The 15 revised full papers presented together with session surveys were carefully reviewed and selected from 30 submissions. The book presents topical sections on middleware selection, resource management, architectural reasoning, distributed communication, advanced transactions, and service integration.
Middleware 2000
Middleware is everywhere. Ever since the advent of sockets and other virtu- circuit abstractions, researchers have been looking for ways to incorporate high- value concepts into distributed systems platforms. Most distributed applications, especially Internet applications, are now programmed using such middleware platforms. Prior to 1998, there were several major conferences and workshops at which research into middleware was reported, including ICODP (International C- ference on Open Distributed Processing), ICDP (International Conference on Distributed Platforms) and SDNE (Services in Distributed and Networked - vironments). Middleware’98was a synthesis of these three conferences. Middle...
Advances in Artificial Intelligence
The two-volume set LNAI 7094 and LNAI 7095 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, MICAI 2011, held in Puebla, Mexico, in November/December 2011. The 96 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The first volume includes 50 papers representing the current main topics of interest for the AI community and their applications. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: automated reasoning and multi-agent systems; problem solving and machine learning; natural language processing; robotics, planning and scheduling; and medical applications of artificial intelligence.
New Perspectives in Software Engineering
This book contains a selection of papers from the 2020 International Conference on Software Process Improvement (CIMPS 20), held between the 21st and 23rd of October in Mazatlán, Sinaloa, México. The CIMPS 20 is a global forum for researchers and practitioners that present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, results, experiences and concerns in the several perspectives of Software Engineering with clear relationship but not limited to software processes, Security in Information and Communication Technology and Big Data Field. The main topics covered are: Organizational Models, Standards and Methodologies, Software Process Improvement, Knowledge Management, Software Systems, Applications and Tools, Information and Communication Technologies and Processes in Non-software Domains (mining, automotive, aerospace, business, health care, manufacturing, etc.) with a demonstrated relationship to Software Engineering Challenges.
Aesthetic Surgery of the Buttock
In the past five years, buttock surgery has been changing and expanding worldwide, while also attracting media attention. Surgeons have been confronted with a shocking number of requests for buttock augmentation surgeries. Further, as patients become more complex, more complex procedures are called for, such as fat infiltration surgery combined with implants or, for example, modifying the waist-to-hip ratio. Aesthetic Surgery of the Buttock is the first book of its kind, covering all relevant aesthetic issues. It offers essential guidance on performing surgery, but also on avoiding complications due to fat infiltration in large blood vessels and thus avoiding embolisms at the pulmonary level. In addition, much of the book addresses various aspects of fat infiltration, e.g. obtaining, processing and applying this fat. It also discusses implants, which are an excellent option for many patients, as well as new trends in the combination of fat infiltration and implants to achieve more natural results. Given its scope, it represents an invaluable asset for all plastic surgeons around the globe who perform body-contouring surgeries.
Hands-On Artificial Intelligence for IoT
Build smarter systems by combining artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things—two of the most talked about topics today Key FeaturesLeverage the power of Python libraries such as TensorFlow and Keras to work with real-time IoT dataProcess IoT data and predict outcomes in real time to build smart IoT modelsCover practical case studies on industrial IoT, smart cities, and home automationBook Description There are many applications that use data science and analytics to gain insights from terabytes of data. These apps, however, do not address the challenge of continually discovering patterns for IoT data. In Hands-On Artificial Intelligence for IoT, we cover various aspects of artific...
