— Software intellectual property (SWIP) is a critical component of increasingly complex FPGA based system on chip (SOC) designs. As a result, developers want to ensure that their...
It is recognized in Ambient Intelligence that ambient devices should be modeled as intelligent autonomous components rather than passive information sources. The agent paradigm sui...
In the context of software maintenance, legacy software systems are continuously re-engineered in order to correct errors, provide new functionality, or port them into modern plat...
The milestones of the history of software development are paradigm shifts. Each paradigm brought its own features and new ways of composing them to assemble software systems. Unde...
Early evaluation allows to execute operations when enough information at the inputs has been received to determine the value at the outputs. Systems that can tolerate variable-lat...
