In order to effectively validate the performance of software systems throughout their development cycle it is necessary to continuously build performance models from software mod...
This paper develops a model for exceptions and an approach for incorporating them in commitment protocols among autonomous agents. Modeling and handling exceptions is critical for...
In the AOSE (Agent-Oriented Software Engineering) area, several research efforts are underway to develop appropriate meta-models for agent-oriented methodologies. Meta-models are ...
Information retrieval systems (e.g., web search engines) are critical for overcoming information overload. A major deficiency of existing retrieval systems is that they generally...
With the scaling of technology, transient errors caused by external particle strikes have become a critical challenge for microprocessor design. As embedded processors are widely ...
