Take a journey back in time as we recount the history of Huntington County, Indiana from 1834 - 1993. This comprehensive history makes the past come alive with hundreds of never before published photographs and nearly 1,000 family biographies. This will be a treasured volume for anyone with a link to this county.
The success of product line engineering techniques in the last 15 years has popularized the use of software variability as a key modeling approach for describing the commonality and variability of systems at all stages of the software lifecycle. Software product lines enable a family of products to share a common core platform, while allowing for product specific functionality being built on top of the platform. Many companies have exploited the concept of software product lines to increase the resources that focus on highly differentiating functionality and thus improve their competitiveness with higher quality and reusable products and decreasing the time-to-market condition. Many books on...
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 7th European Conference on Software Architecture, ECSA 2013, held in Montpellier, France, in July 2013. The 25 full papers and 11 poster papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 82 submissions. The contributions are organized in topical sections named: architectural and design patterns and models; ADLs and architectural MetaModels; architectural design decision-making; software architecture conformance and quality; and architectural repair and adaptation.
Informative reference on the state of the art in cybersecurity and how to achieve a more secure cyberspace AI for Cybersecurity presents the state of the art and practice in AI for cybersecurity with a focus on four interrelated defensive capabilities of deter, protect, detect, and respond. The book examines the fundamentals of AI for cybersecurity as a multidisciplinary subject, describes how to design, build, and operate AI technologies and strategies to achieve a more secure cyberspace, and provides why-what-how of each AI technique-cybersecurity task pair to enable researchers and practitioners to make contributions to the field of AI for cybersecurity. This book is aligned with the Nati...
This book presents reference architecture as a key blueprint to develop and evolve critical software-intensive systems, emphasizing both the state of the art in research and successful industrial cases. After outlining the theoretical foundations of reference architecture and presenting an overview of a number of reference architectures proposed over the recent years, this book dives into a set of critical application domains, including defense, health, automotive, avionics, and Industry 4.0, highlighting the respective most relevant reference architectures that have impacted these domains, the experience and lessons learned, insights gained, benefits and drawbacks, and factors that make these architectures sustainable. The book finishes with the most relevant directions for future advances in reference architectures. The content of this book is useful for researchers and advanced professionals in industry in the areas of computing and engineering, as well as in critical application domains that increasingly require interconnected, large, and complex software-intensive systems.
Information Systems (IS) as a discipline draws on diverse areas including, technology, organisational theory, management and social science. The field is recognized as very broad and encompassing many themes and areas. However, the development of artefacts, or information systems development (ISD), in the broadest sense, is a central concern of the discipline. Significantly, ISD impacts on the organisational and societal contexts through the use of the artefacts constructed by the development. Today, that impact also needs to be evaluated in terms of its effects on the environment. Sustainable, or "green," IT is a catch-all term used to describe the development, manufacture, management, u...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Product-Focused Software Process Improvement, PROFES 2019, held in Barcelona, Spain, in November 2019. The 24 revised full papers 4 industry papers, and 11 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 104 submissions. The papers cover a broad range of topics related to professional software development and process improvement driven by product and service quality needs. They are organized in topical sections on testing, software development, technical debt, estimations, continuous delivery, agile, project management, microservices, and continuous experimentation. This book also includes papers from the co-located events: 10 project papers, 8 workshop papers, and 4 tutorial summaries.
