A Practical Theory of Reactive Systems
A man may imagine he understands something, but still not understand anything in the way that he ought to. (Paul of Tarsus, 1 Corinthians 8:2) Calling this a ‘practical theory’ may require some explanation. Theory and practice are often thought of as two di?erent worlds, governed bydi?erentideals,principles, andlaws.DavidLorgeParnas, forinstance,who hascontributedmuchtoourtheoreticalunderstandingofsoftwareengineering and also to sound use of theory in the practice of it, likes to point out that ‘theoretically’ is synonymous to ‘not really’. In applied mathematics the goal is to discover useful connections between these two worlds. My thesis is that in software engineering this tw...
Software Business
This open access book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Software Business, ICSOB 2023, which was held in Lahti, Finland, during November 27–29, 2023. The special theme of ICSOB 2023 was Digital Agility: Mastering Change in Software Business and Digital Services. The 27 full papers and 8 short papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 79 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: Requirements; software procurement; platforms, ecosystems and data; artificial intelligence; software startups; software product management; software and business co-development; and emerging digital world.
Agile and Lean Concepts for Teaching and Learning
This book explores the application of agile and lean techniques, originally from the field of software development and manufacturing, to various aspects of education. It covers a broad range of topics, including applying agile teaching and learning techniques in the classroom, incorporating lean thinking in educational workflows, and using team-based approaches to student-centred activities based on agile principles and processes. Demonstrating how agile and lean ideas can concretely be applied to education, the book offers practical guidance on how to apply these ideas in the classroom or lecture hall, as well as new concepts that could spark further research and development.
Information Modelling and Knowledge Bases XVIII
In the last decades, information modelling and knowledge bases have become hot topics not only in academic communities related to information systems and computer science, but also in business areas where information technology is applied. This book aims to exchange scientific results and experiences achieved in computer science and other related disciplines using innovative methods and progressive approaches. A platform has been established drawing together researchers as well as practitioners dealing with information modelling and knowledge bases. The main topics of this publication target the variety of themes in the domain of information modelling, conceptual analysis, design and specification of information systems, ontologies, software engineering, knowledge and process management, data and knowledge bases. The editors also aim at applying new progressive theories.
Product-Focused Software Process Improvement
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 22nd International Conference on Product-Focused Software Process Improvement, PROFES 2021, held in Turin, Italy, in November 2021. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held as a hybrid event. The 20 revised papers, including 14 full papers, 3 short papers and 3 industry papers, presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 48 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 the following topical sections: agile and migration, requirements, human factors, and software quality.
Current Trends in Web Engineering
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Web Engineering, ICWE 2016, held in Lugano, Switzerland, in June 2016. The 15 revised full papers together with 5 short papers were selected form 37 submissions. The workshops complement the main conference, and provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to discuss emerging topics. As a result, the workshop committee accepted six workshops, of which the following four contributed papers to this volume: 2nd International Workshop on TEchnical and LEgal aspects of data pRIvacy and SEcurity (TELERISE 2016) 2nd International Workshop on Mining the Social Web (SoWeMine 2016) 1st International Workshop on Liquid Multi-Device Software for the Web (LiquidWS 2016) 5th Workshop on Distributed User Interfaces: Distributing Interactions (DUI 2016)
Programming Mobile Devices
With forewords by Jan Bosch, Nokia and Antero Taivalsaari, Sun Microsystems. Learn how to programme the mobile devices of the future! The importance of mobile systems programming has emerged over the recent years as a new domain in software development. The design of software that runs in a mobile device requires that developers combine the rules applicable in embedded environment; memory-awareness, limited performance, security, and limited resources with features that are needed in workstation environment; modifiability, run-time extensions, and rapid application development. Programming Mobile Devices is a comprehensive, practical introduction to programming mobile systems. The book is a ...
Hardware and Software, Verification and Testing
This book constitutes the refereed post-proceedings of the First International Conference on Hardware Verification, Software Testing, and PADTAD held in November 2005. The conference combines the sixth IBM Verification Workshop, the fourth IBM Software Testing Workshop, and the third PADTAD (Parallel and Distributed Systems: Testing and Debugging) Workshop. The 14 revised full papers presented together with three invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 31 submissions. The papers address all current issues in hardware/software verification, software testing, and testing of parallel and concurrent applications.
Seventh IEEE International Conference on Engineering of Complex Computer Systems
Annotation Contributions are arranged into 12 sessions, which include real-time issues; a panel discussion focusing on issues with Web site software; formal issues; industrial experiences; a panel addressing dependability in industrial systems and risk management of complex systems; architecture; testing; and analysis and modeling. The table of contents lists three keynotes speeches, but only one of them is presented (F. Dahlgren's discussion of the design challenges involved in future mobile phones). The other two consist only of a brief abstract and several paragraphs about the authors, curiously omitting the text of the keynote speech itself. Contributors primarily consist of researchers from Europe, Asia, and North America. Lacks a subject index. c. Book News Inc.
