Book excerpt: ETAPS'99 is the second instance of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software. ETAPS is an annual federated conference that was established in 1998 by combining a number of existing and new conferences. This year it comprises ve conferences (FOSSACS, FASE, ESOP, CC, TACAS), four satellite workshops (CMCS, AS, WAGA, CoFI), seven invited lectures, two invited tutorials, and six contributed tutorials. The events that comprise ETAPS address various aspects of the system - velopment process, including speci cation, design, implementation, analysis and improvement. The languages, methodologies and tools which support these - tivities are all well within its scope. Dieren t blends of theory and practice are represented, with an inclination towards theory with a practical motivation on one hand and soundly-based practice on the other. Many of the issues involved in software design apply to systems in general, including hardware systems, and the emphasis on software is not intended to be exclusive.

Book Synopsis Calculational System Design by : M. Broy
Download or read book Calculational System Design written by M. Broy and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer Science has made considerable progress in making complex software and hardware systems more reliable. This is a result of practical experience and continuous process improvement on one side and of a better and deeper understanding of the fundamentals of software and system engineering on the other side. Recent encouraging trends are a strong integration of formal techniques with practical industrial development methods and more advanced support tools such as modelling, verification, and model-checking support systems. This active area of research has a relatively short term horizon with respect to transferring technology to industrial applications. This volume is focusing on techniques and the scientific basis for calculation-based development of software and hardware systems as a foundation for advanced methods and tools for software and system engineering. This includes topics of specification, description, methodology, refinement, verification, and implementation. The volume presents new trends and insights reflecting the current state of the art in the scientific foundation of these techniques, since such a foundation is an indispensable prerequisite for advanced development methods.
Book Synopsis Handbook of Process Algebra by : J.A. Bergstra
Download or read book Handbook of Process Algebra written by J.A. Bergstra and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2001-03-16 with total page 1357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Process Algebra is a formal description technique for complex computer systems, especially those involving communicating, concurrently executing components. It is a subject that concurrently touches many topic areas of computer science and discrete math, including system design notations, logic, concurrency theory, specification and verification, operational semantics, algorithms, complexity theory, and, of course, algebra.This Handbook documents the fate of process algebra since its inception in the late 1970's to the present. It is intended to serve as a reference source for researchers, students, and system designers and engineers interested in either the theory of process algebra or in learning what process algebra brings to the table as a formal system description and verification technique. The Handbook is divided into six parts spanning a total of 19 self-contained Chapters. The organization is as follows. Part 1, consisting of four chapters, covers a broad swath of the basic theory of process algebra. Part 2 contains two chapters devoted to the sub-specialization of process algebra known as finite-state processes, while the three chapters of Part 3 look at infinite-state processes, value-passing processes and mobile processes in particular. Part 4, also three chapters in length, explores several extensions to process algebra including real-time, probability and priority. The four chapters of Part 5 examine non-interleaving process algebras, while Part 6's three chapters address process-algebra tools and applications.

Book Synopsis Component-Based Software Engineering by : Grace A. Lewis
Download or read book Component-Based Software Engineering written by Grace A. Lewis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-06-09 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2009 Symposium on Component-Based Software Engineering (CBSE 2009) was the 12thin a series ofsuccessful eventsthat havegrowninto the main forum for industrial and academic experts to discuss component technology. Component-based software engineering (CBSE) has emerged as the under- ing technology for the assembly of ?exible software systems. In essence, CBSE is about composing computational building blocks to construct larger building blocks that ful?ll client needs. Most software engineers are involved in some form of component-based development. Nonetheless, the implications of CBSE adoption are wide-reaching and its challenges grow in tandem with its uptake, continuing to inspire our scienti?c speculation. Component-based development necessarily involves elements of software - chitecture, modular software design, software veri?cation, testing, con?guration and deployment. This year’s submissions represent a cross-section of CBSE - search that touches upon all these aspects. The theoretical foundations of c- ponent speci?cation, composition, analysis, and veri?cation continue to pose research challenges. What exactly constitutes an adequate semantics for c- munication and composition so that bigger things can be built from smaller things? How can formal approaches facilitate predictable assembly through b- ter analysis? We have grouped the proceedings into two sub-themes that deal with these issues: component models and communication and composition. At the same time, the world is changing.

Book Synopsis Logical Foundations of Computer Science by : S. I. Adi︠a︡n
Download or read book Logical Foundations of Computer Science written by S. I. Adi︠a︡n and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-05-28 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Sobolev gradient of a real-valued functional is a gradient of that functional taken relative to the underlying Sobolev norm. This book shows how descent methods using such gradients allow a unified treatment of a wide variety of problems in differential equations. Equal emphasis is placed on numerical and theoretical matters. Several concrete applications are made to illustrate the method. These applications include (1) Ginzburg-Landau functionals of superconductivity, (2) problems of transonic flow in which type depends locally on nonlinearities, and (3) minimal surface problems. Sobolev gradient constructions rely on a study of orthogonal projections onto graphs of closed densely defined linear transformations from one Hilbert space to another. These developments use work of Weyl, von Neumann and Beurling.

Book Synopsis Multi-Agent Rationality by : Magnus Boman
Download or read book Multi-Agent Rationality written by Magnus Boman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-05-02 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these notes on 'Projective Modules and Complete Intersections' an account on the recent developments in research on this subject is presented. The author's preference for the technique of Patching isotopic isomorphisms due to Quillen, formalized by Plumsted, over the techniques of elementary matrices is evident here. The treatment of Basic Element theory here incorporates Plumstead's idea of the 'generalized dimension functions'. These notes are highly selfcontained and should be accessible to any graduate student in commutative algebra or algebraic geometry. They include fully self-contained presentations of the theorems of Ferrand-Szpiro, Cowsik-Nori and the techniques of Lindel.

Book Synopsis A Methodology for Developing Multimodal User Interfaces of Information Systems by : Adrian Stanciulescu
Download or read book A Methodology for Developing Multimodal User Interfaces of Information Systems written by Adrian Stanciulescu and published by Presses univ. de Louvain. This book was released on 2008 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Graphical User Interface (GUI), as the most prevailing type of User Interface (UI) in today's interactive applications, restricts the interaction with a computer to the visual modality and is therefore not suited for some users (e.g., with limited literacy or typing skills), in some circumstances (e.g., while moving around, with their hands or eyes busy) or when the environment is constrained (e.g., the keyboard and the mouse are not available). In order to go beyond the GUI constraints, the Multimodal (MM) UIs apear as paradigm that provide users with great expressive power, naturalness and flexibility. In this thesis we argue that developing MM UIs combining graphical and vocal modalities is an activity that could benefit from the application of a methodology which is composed of: a set of models, a method manipulating these models and the tools implementing the method. Therefore, we define a design space-based method that is supported by model-to-model colored transformations in order to obtain MM UIs of information systems. The design space is composed of explicitly defined design options that clarify the development process in a structured way in order to require less design effort. The feasability of the methodology is demonstrated through three case studies with different levels of complexity and coverage. In addition, an empirical study is conducted with end-users in order to measure the relative usability level provided by different design decisions.
