Web services are used for developing and integrating highly distributed and heterogeneous systems in different domains such as e-business, grid services, and e-government systems....
Discrete EVent Systems Specification (DEVS) formalism supports specification of discrete event models in a hierarchical modular manner. This paper proposes a DEVS modeling languag...
: The Standish Group reported in 1994 that the average cost overrun of software projects was as high as 189%. This cost overrun number is used as input in recent governmental repor...
Program slicing identifies parts of a program that potentially affect a chosen computation. It has many applications in software engineering, including maintenance, evolution and ...
The widespread availability of machine understandable information on the Semantic Web offers some opportunities to improve traditional search. In this paper, we propose a hybrid w...
In finite state machine (FSM) based testing, the problem of fault masking in the unique input/output (UIO) sequence may degrade the test performance of the UIO based methods. This...

It is well documented that the software industry suffers from frequent cost overruns. A contributing factor is, we believe, the imprecise estimation terminology in use. A lack of ...
Although software measurement plays an increasingly important role in Software Engineering, there is no consensus yet on many of the concepts and terminology used in this field. E...
Adding usability improving solutions during late stage development is to some extent restricted by the software architecture. However, few software engineers and human
Statistical power is an inherent part of empirical studies that employ significance testing and is essential for the planning of studies, for the interpretation of study results, ...
