Ontologies are expected to play an important role in many application domains, as well as in software engineering in general. One problem with using ontologies within software engi...
We introduce TIRA1 , a software architecture for the rapid prototyping of tailored information retrieval (IR) tools. TIRA allows to compose personal IR tools from atomic IR servic...
Performance analysis gains more attention in recent years by researchers who focus their study on the early software development stages to mitigate the risk of redesign as problem...
As the complexity of computing systems steadily increases, self-managing systems – as Autonomic Computing Systems (ACS) proposed by IBM – are an adequate approach to minimize ...
Abstract. Current Agent-Oriented Software Engineering (AOSE) methodologies adopt a model-based approach for analysis and design, but, in order to become of practical use, they shou...
