In this paper we outline a framework for assuring information quality (IQ) in an e-Science context, using semiotics theory, semantic explanation of resources, and data couplings. ...
Correctly specifying requirements for composite systems is essential to system safety, particularly in a distributed development environment. Goal-oriented requirements engineerin...
Non-functional requirements (NFRs) pose unique challenges in estimating the effort it would take to implement them. This is mainly because of their unique nature; NFRs are subject...
—This paper considers the problem of providing gbps/user data-rate in indoor environments. The technology that we study uses the 60GHz spectrum whose special propagation properti...
In this paper we propose and analyze an efficient flooding technique for static multi-hop wireless networks. The protocol builds up a routing tree that connects all network nodes....
