Extreme Programming and Agile Processes in Software Engineering
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Extreme Programming and Agile Processes in Software Engineering, XP 2006, held in Oulu, Finland, June 2006. The book presents 16 revised full papers together with 6 experience papers, 12 poster papers and panel summaries, organized in topical sections on foundation and rationale for agile methods, effects of pair programming, quality in agile software development, and more.
Developments in Information & Knowledge Management for Business Applications
This book provides practical knowledge on different aspects of information and knowledge management in businesses. In contemporary unstable time, enterprises/businesses deal with various challenges—such as large-scale competitions, high levels of uncertainty and risk, rush technological advancements, while increasing customer requirements. Thus, businesses work continually on improving efficiency of their operations and resources towards enabling sustainable solutions based on the knowledge and information accumulated previously. Consequently, this third volume of our subline persists to highlight different approaches of handling enterprise knowledge/information management directing to the importance of unceasing progress of structural management for the steady growth. We look forward that the works of this volume can encourage and initiate further research on this topic.
Product-Focused Software Process Improvement
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Product Focused Software Process Improvement, PROFES 2007, held in Riga, Latvia in July 2007. The 29 revised full papers presented together with 4 reports on workshops and tutorials and 4 keynote addresses were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. The papers constitute a balanced mix of academic and industrial aspects; they are organized in topical sections on global software development, software process improvement, software process modeling and evolution, industrial experiences, agile software development, software measurement, simulation and decision support, processes and methods.
Software Engineering
The capability to design quality software and implement modern information systems is at the core of economic growth in the 21st century. This book aims to review and analyze software engineering technologies, focusing on the evolution of design and implementation platforms as well as on novel computer systems.
Test-Driven Development
Agile methods are gaining more and more interest both in industry and in research. Many industries are transforming their way of working from traditional waterfall projects with long duration to more incremental, iterative and agile practices. At the same time, the need to evaluate and to obtain evidence for different processes, methods and tools has been emphasized. Lech Madeyski offers the first in-depth evaluation of agile methods. He presents in detail the results of three different experiments, including concrete examples of how to conduct statistical analysis with meta analysis or the SPSS package, using as evaluation indicators the number of acceptance tests passed (overall and per hour) and design complexity metrics. The book is appropriate for graduate students, researchers and advanced professionals in software engineering. It proves the real benefits of agile software development, provides readers with in-depth insights into experimental methods in the context of agile development, and discusses various validity threats in empirical studies.
Foundations of Computing and Decision Sciences
All subareas of Computing and Decision Sciences, in particular: computational complexity theory, parallel computations, combinatorics, consistency control, scheduling theory, distributed algorithms and systems, networking, databases, artificial intellingence (especially knowledge engineering, reasoning and learning models, search methods, speech recognition and synthesis), human-computer communication), ... decision analysis, ... decision support systems, production and project scheduling.
Integrating Research and Practice in Software Engineering
In this book, the authors highlight recent findings that hold the potential to improve software products or development processes; in addition, they help readers understand new concepts and technologies, and to see what it takes to migrate from old to new platforms. Some of the authors have spent most of their careers in industry, working at the frontiers of practice-based innovation, and are at the same time prominent researchers who have made significant academic contributions. Others work together with industry to test, in industrial settings, the methods they’ve developed in the lab. The choice of subject and authors represent the key elements of this book. Its respective chapters cover a wide range of topics, from cloud computing to agile development, applications of data science methods, re-engineering of aging applications into modern ones, and business and requirements engineering. Taken together, they offer a valuable asset for practitioners and researchers alike.
Towards a Synergistic Combination of Research and Practice in Software Engineering
This book reports on recent advances in software engineering research and practice. Divided into 15 chapters, it addresses: languages and tools; development processes; modelling, simulation and verification; and education. In the first category, the book includes chapters on domain-specific languages, software complexity, testing and tools. In the second, it reports on test-driven development, processing of business rules, and software management. In turn, subsequent chapters address modelling, simulation and verification of real-time systems, mobile systems and computer networks, and a scrum-based framework. The book was written by researchers and practitioners, the goal being to achieve a synergistic combination of research results achieved in academia and best practices used in the industry, and to provide a valuable reference guide for both groups.
Software Engineering: Challenges and Solutions
This book presents the proceedings of the KKIO Software Engineering Conference held in Wrocław, Poland in September 15-17, 2016. It contains the carefully reviewed and selected scientific outcome of the conference, which had the motto: “Better software = more efficient enterprise: challenges and solutions”. Following this mission, this book is a compilation of challenges and needs of the industry, as well as research findings and achievements that could address the posed problems in software engineering. Some of these challenges included in the book are: increasing levels of abstraction for programming constructs, increasing levels of software reuse, increasing levels of automation, optimizing software development cycles. The book provides a platform for communication between researchers, young and established, and practitioners.
