The is-a relationship among actors has been introduced since the very beginning in the i* framework. However, the effect of this construct at the level of intentional elements and dependencies is not always completely ...

Requirements engineering and architectural design are key activities for successful development of software systems. Specifically in the service-oriented development systems there is a gap between the requirements description ...

This paper considers implementing the Object Oriented Programming Model directly in the hardware to serve as a base to exploit object-level parallelism, speculation and heterogeneous computing. Towards this goal, we present ...

During the panel session at the OCL workshop, the OCL community discussed, stimulated by short presentations by OCL experts, potential future extensions and improvements of the OCL. As such, this panel discussion continued ...

English: Nowadays, with the evolution of avionics technology, the use of Unmanned Aircraft System to achieve mission remote sensing oriented is rising. From takeoff to landing lot of data are gathered, nevertheless only ...

The mobile office devices market is currently growing, mainly due to the descending cost of wireless technology as well as the high diversity of functions and features covered. Diversity and proliferation become a hard ...

Goal-orientation is a widespread and useful approach to Requirements Engineering. However, quality assessment frameworks focused on goal-oriented processes are either limited or remain on the theoretical side. Requirements ...

The graph-based geometric constraint solving technique works in two steps. First the geometric problem is translated into a graph whose vertices represent the set of geometric elements and whose edges are the constraints. ...
