We pose a fundamental question in understanding how to identify and design successful communities: What factors predict whether a community will grow and survive in the long term?...
Background. Software defect prediction has been one of the central topics of software engineering. Predicted defect counts have been used mainly to assess software quality and est...

Assessing reliability at early stages of software development, such as at the level of software architecture, is desirable and can provide a cost-effective way of improving a soft...
In this paper we present a formal approach to analyse performance for distributed systems, which is integrated in the early stages of the software development process. We propose ...
A fast mode decision method for Intra prediction in H.264 is proposed in this work to reduce the encoder complexity. The proposed algorithm adopts a multi-stage sequential mode de...
