Empirical studies are crucial to gain evidence on the effects of software engineering methods and tools in defined contexts. However, empirical studies can be costly and thus need...
We have developed a technique to characterize software developers' styles using a set of source code metrics. This style fingerprint can be used to identify the likely author...
In a database system, disclosure of confidential private data may occur if users can put together the answers of past queries. Traditional access control mechanisms cannot guard a...
When building a representation of the environment for a robot in a multi-agent application, as is the case of robotic soccer, sensor and information fusion of several elements of t...
Reliability modeling and evaluation is expected to be one of the major issues in emerging nano-devices and beyond 22nm CMOS. Such devices would have inherent propensity for gate f...
