We propose a formal model of trust informed by the Global Computing scenario and focusing on the aspects of trust formation, evolution, and propagation. The model is based on a no...
Complexity is a much analyzed, much debated, much measured property of softwareintensive products. From a strategic point of view, complexity has implications for the development ...
It is well known that modifying software by hand, especially someone else's, is not only slow and tedious but so notoriously error-prone that we strive for components that ne...
This paper presents an approach based on Information Retrieval (IR) techniques for extracting and representing the unstructured information in large software systems such that it ...
Abstract. Contemporary inferences about evolution occasionally involve analyzing infinitely large feature spaces, requiring specific algorithmic techniques. We consider parsimony a...
