It is challenging to test applications and functions for which the correct output for arbitrary input cannot be known in advance, e.g. some computational science or machine learni...
Software system faults are often caused by unexpected interactions among components. Yet the size of a test suite required to test all possible combinations of interactions can be...

— Traditional SLAs, defined by average delay or packet loss, often camouflage the instantaneous performance perceived by end-users. We define a set of metrics for service avai...
We propose a new approach to estimate the joint spectral radius and the joint spectral subradius of an arbitrary set of matrices. We first restrict our attention to matrices that ...
This paper applies Lehman's theory of software evolution to analyse the characteristics of web-based applications and identifies the essences and incidents that cause difficu...
