Business Component-Based Software Engineering
Business Component-Based Software Engineering, an edited volume, aims to complement some other reputable books on CBSE, by stressing how components are built for large-scale applications, within dedicated development processes and for easy and direct combination. This book will emphasize these three facets and will offer a complete overview of some recent progresses. Projects and works explained herein will prompt graduate students, academics, software engineers, project managers and developers to adopt and to apply new component development methods gained from and validated by the authors. The authors of Business Component-Based Software Engineering are academic and professionals, experts in the field, who will introduce the state of the art on CBSE from their shared experience by working on the same projects. Business Component-Based Software Engineering is designed to meet the needs of practitioners and researchers in industry, and graduate-level students in Computer Science and Engineering.
Robotic Systems
This book brings together some of the latest research in robot applications, control, modeling, sensors and algorithms. Consisting of three main sections, the first section of the book has a focus on robotic surgery, rehabilitation, self-assembly, while the second section offers an insight into the area of control with discussions on exoskeleton control and robot learning among others. The third section is on vision and ultrasonic sensors which is followed by a series of chapters which include a focus on the programming of intelligent service robots and systems adaptations.
Software Engineering with Computational Intelligence
This edited book invites the reader to explore how the latest technologies developed in computational intelligence can be extended and applied to software engineering. Leading experts demonstrate how this recent confluence of software engineering and computational intelligence provides a powerful tool to address the increasing demand for complex applications in diversified areas, the ever-increasing complexity and size of software systems, and the inherently imperfect nature of the information. The presented treatments to software modeling and formal analysis permit the extension of computational intelligence to various phases in software life cycles, such as managing fuzziness resident in the requirements, coping with fuzzy objects and imprecise knowledge, and handling uncertainty encountered in quality prediction.
Component-Based Software Quality
Component-based software development, CBSD, is no longer just one more new paradigm in software engineering, but is effectively used in development and practice. So far, however, most of the efforts from the software engineering community have concentrated on the functional aspects of CBSD, leaving aside the treatment of the quality issues and extra-functional properties of software components and component-based systems. This book is the first one focusing on quality issues of components and component-based systems. The 16 revised chapters presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book; together with an introductory survey, they give a coherent and competent survey of the state of the art in the area. The book is organized in topical parts on COTS selection, testing and certification, software component quality models, formal models to quality assessment, and CBSD management.
Event-Based Programming
This book shows how to develop software based on parts that interact primarily through an event mechanism. The book demonstrates the use of events in all sorts of situations to solve recurring development problems without incurring coupling. A novel form of software diagram is introduced, called Signal Wiring Diagram. These diagrams are similar to the circuit diagrams used by hardware designers. A series of case studies concludes the book, bringing all the next concepts introduced together. Source code is provided in both C# and VB.NET
Advances in Smalltalk
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 14th International Smalltalk Conference, ISC 2006, held in Prague, Czech Republic in September 2006. Being a live forum on cutting edge software technologies, the conference attracted researchers and professionals from both academia and industry that produced papers covering topics from foundational issues to advanced applications.
On the Move to Meaningful Internet Systems 2004: CoopIS, DOA, and ODBASE
This two-volume set LNCS 3290/3291 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the three confederated conferences CoopIS 2004, DOA 2004, and ODBASE 2004 held as OTM 2004 in Agia Napa, Cyprus in October 2004. The 94 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 380 submissions. In accordance with the three OTM 2004 main conferences CoopIS, DOA, and ODBASE, the papers are devoted to interoperability, workflow, and cooperation; distributed objects, infrastructure and enabling technology, and Internet computing; and data and Web semantics.
An Extensible Component & Connector Architecture Description Infrastructure for Multi-Platform Modeling
Software engineering for complex systems requires abstraction, multi-domain expertise, separation of concerns, and reuse. Domain experts rarely are software engineers and should formulate solutions using their domain's vocabulary instead of general purpose programming languages (GPLs). Successful integration of domain-specific languages (DSLs) into a software system requires a separation of concerns between domain issues and integration issues while retaining a loose enough coupling to support DSL reuse in different contexts. Component-based software engineering (CBSE) increases reuse and separation of concerns by encapsulating functionalities in components. Components are GPL artifacts, whi...
Software Architecture
Software architecture is foundational to the development of large, practical software-intensive applications. This brand-new text covers all facets of software architecture and how it serves as the intellectual centerpiece of software development and evolution. Critically, this text focuses on supporting creation of real implemented systems. Hence the text details not only modeling techniques, but design, implementation, deployment, and system adaptation -- as well as a host of other topics -- putting the elements in context and comparing and contrasting them with one another. Rather than focusing on one method, notation, tool, or process, this new text/reference widely surveys software architecture techniques, enabling the instructor and practitioner to choose the right tool for the job at hand. Software Architecture is intended for upper-division undergraduate and graduate courses in software architecture, software design, component-based software engineering, and distributed systems; the text may also be used in introductory as well as advanced software engineering courses.
Software Architecture: A Case Based Approach
The book discusses the discipline of Software Architecture using real-world case studies and poses pertinent questions that arouse objective thinking. With the help of case studies and in-depth analyses, it delves into the core issues and challenges of software architecture.
