The high cost of software maintenance could potentially be reduced by automatically improving the design of object-oriented programs without altering their behaviour. We have const...
Kaltofen has proposed a new approach in (Kaltofen, 1992) for computing matrix determinants without divisions. The algorithm is based on a baby steps/giant steps construction of Kr...
Heterogeneity, mobility, complexity and new application domains raise new software reliability issues that cannot be met cost-effectively only with classic software engineering ap...
Background: The engineering of ontologies, especially with a view to a text-mining use, is still a new research field. There does not yet exist a well-defined theory and technolog...
