This paper presents a framework that draws on Structuration theory and dialectical hermeneutics to explicate the dynamics of software process improvement (SPI) in a packaged softw...
Heterogeneity, mobility, complexity and new application domains raise new software reliability issues that cannot be met cost-effectively only with classic software engineering ap...
Abstract. In this article, we present a flexible simulation environment for embedded real-time software refinement by a mixed level cosimulation. For this, ne the native speed of a...
Software realizations of computationally-demanding image processing tasks (e.g. image transforms and convolution) do not currently provide graceful degradation when their clock-cy...
Abstract. In current software components models, components do not encapsulate control, and are composed by connection mechanisms which pass control from component to component. Co...
