Abstract— Self-assembly is a process through which an organized structure can spontaneously form from simple parts. Taking inspiration from biological examples of self-assembly, ...
When software products are assembled from pre-defined components, performance prediction should be based on the components also. This supports rapid model-building, using previous...
Motivation: In the field of bioinformatics there is an emerging need to integrate all knowledge discovery steps into a standardized modular framework. Indeed, component-based deve...
with existing analysis tools. Modular reasoning principles such as abstraction, compositional refinement, and assume-guarantee reasoning are well understood for architectural hiera...
Modularisation can reduce the effort in designing and maintaining language specifications. Existing approaches to language modularisation are typically either focused on language ...
