A fundamental problem related to RDF query processing is selectivity estimation, which is crucial to query optimization for determining a join order of RDF triple patterns. In thi...
Abstract—Engineering cannot wait until all phenomena are explained. Engineers may work effectively, often for centuries, with heuristics. This paper provides thirty one heuristic...
Estimating time and costs is a crucial factor in application development projects and low error margins are a priority. In line with the very fast evolution of Internet technologi...
Abstract—The dynamic power consumed by a digital CMOS circuit is directly proportional to capacitance. In this paper, we consider pre-routing capacitance estimation for FPGAs and...
Software estimation models should support managerial decision making in software projects. We experience that most of current models do not achieve this goal to the extend manager...
Over the last 25+ years, the software community has been searching for the best models for estimating variables of interest (e.g., cost, defects, and fault proneness). However, li...
