This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Symposium on Fundamentals of Software Engineering, FSEN 2007. The topics include models of programs and systems, software architectures and their description languages, object and multi-agent systems, coordination and feature interaction, component-based development, service-oriented development, model checking and theorem proving, software and hardware verification and CASE tools and tool integration.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering, FASE 2008, held in Budapest, Hungary, in March/April 2008 as part of ETAPS 2008, the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software. The 26 revised full papers presented together with 5 tool demonstrations were carefully reviewed and selected from 119 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on requirements and architectures, models and model transformations, conceptual models and UML, service engineering and adaptable services, verification and testing, and objects and components.
Service-oriented computing is a paradigm for developing software addressing key contemporary IT challenges. The result of the SENSORIA project, this book presents a novel and comprehensive approach to designing, analyzing and implementing SO applications.
Today it is almost impossible to remember what life was like with no computer, no mobile phone, and no Internet for accessing information, performing tra- actions or exchanging emails and data. New technology is bringing wave after wave of new bene?ts to daily life: organisations are doing business with each other via the Internet; people are ?lling in tax declarations online and booking their next vacation through the Internet. In general we are all progressively - ing (and dependent on) software and services running on computers, connecting mobile phones and other devices, and exchanging information on the Internet. People like to shop around and exercise choice. So do businesses and publi...

For many civilian, security, and military applications, distributed and networked coordination offers a more promising alternative to centralized command and control in terms of scalability, flexibility, and robustness. It also introduces its own challenges. Distributed Networks: Intelligence, Security, and Applications brings together scientific research in distributed network intelligence, security, and novel applications. The book presents recent trends and advances in the theory and applications of network intelligence and helps you understand how to successfully incorporate them into distributed systems and services. Featuring contributions by leading scholars and experts from around th...
A comprehensive guide to Fog and Edge applications, architectures, and technologies Recent years have seen the explosive growth of the Internet of Things (IoT): the internet-connected network of devices that includes everything from personal electronics and home appliances to automobiles and industrial machinery. Responding to the ever-increasing bandwidth demands of the IoT, Fog and Edge computing concepts have developed to collect, analyze, and process data more efficiently than traditional cloud architecture. Fog and Edge Computing: Principles and Paradigms provides a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art applications and architectures driving this dynamic field of computing whil...
