This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th European Workshop on Computer Performance Engineering, EPEW 2015, held in Madrid, Spain, in August/September 2015. The 19 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: applications; modelling techniques, software performance, and simulation techniques.
This cumulative habilitation thesis, proposes concepts for (i) modelling and analysing dependability based on architectural models of software-intensive systems early in development, (ii) decomposition and composition of modelling languages and analysis techniques to enable more flexibility in evolution, and (iii) bridging the divergent levels of abstraction between data of the operation phase, architectural models and source code of the development phase.
This book provides formal and informal definitions and taxonomies for self-aware computing systems, and explains how self-aware computing relates to many existing subfields of computer science, especially software engineering. It describes architectures and algorithms for self-aware systems as well as the benefits and pitfalls of self-awareness, and reviews much of the latest relevant research across a wide array of disciplines, including open research challenges. The chapters of this book are organized into five parts: Introduction, System Architectures, Methods and Algorithms, Applications and Case Studies, and Outlook. Part I offers an introduction that defines self-aware computing system...
Mobile Apps - Programme, die auf Smartphones ausgeführt werden - sind derzeit fast nur bei Konsumenten erfolgreich, während ein echtes App-Konzept im Business-Markt noch fehlt. Das Thema "Smart Mobile Apps" nimmt dieses Potenzial in Angriff: Intelligente Business-Apps werden Geschäftsprozesse im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes mobilisieren. Es entsteht ein mobiles Internet, das Geschäftsprozesse in allen Branchen befördern kann. Chancen dafür gibt es viele: Smartphones, Pads und Co. müssen sich nur in unser Denken integrieren. Durch sie kann Situationen intuitiv begegnet werden – am Flughafen nach dem Check-in, wenn noch eine Auslandsversicherung benötigt wird, oder direkt an einem Unfallort der Schaden aufgenommen werden soll. Informationen können den Kunden zeitnah und individualisiert zur Verfügung gestellt werden: so entstehen neue Märkte und Umsatzchancen.
Thousands of arthropod species, ranging from arachnids (spiders and scorpions) to hymenopterans (ants, bees, and wasps) and myriapods (centipedes), are venomous and use their venoms for both defense and predation. These venoms are invariably harmful to humans, and some may cause serious injuries, e.g., those from scorpions, spiders, and wasps. Arthropods’ venoms are also known as rich sources of biologically active compounds and have attracted the attention of toxin researchers for years. In this century, venom component analysis has progressed considerable due to the advances in analytical techniques, in particular, mass spectrometry and next-generation deep (DNA and RNA) sequencing. As s...
