The development of devices that combine hardware and software has created new challenges. The new built devices have a short life cycle and frequently require upgrading. The software industry attends to these requests with agile methods, such as Scrum. Agile methods apply quick iterations and continuous preplanning based on feedback and past iterations, enabling a quick and continuous delivery for...
Communication devices like cell phones, refrigerators, TVs, and others have been considered lately as some Internet of Things (IoT) components, mainly due to the embedded systems evolution and web connectivity. During the first semester of 2014, at the Brazilian Aeronautics Institute of Technology (Instituto Tecnologico de Aeronautica -- ITA), a successful Interdisciplinary Problem Based Learning...
This paper describes the use of Scrum in a collaborative software project. It applies agile software development, big data, and internet of things to reduce frauds within credit card operations. It reports the experience of students from three different courses taking the graduate program in Electronics and Computer Engineering at the Brazilian Aeronautics Institute of Technology (Instituto Tecnologico...
Development of satellite and launcher subsystems involves programming complex embedded systems and dealing with multiple system interactions while complying with both functional and technical requirements as well as software quality. Space onboard system project development is complex and is normally both time consuming and highly susceptible to errors. The combination of scrum agile methods with...
Computer controlled characters in games are expected to present realistic behaviors and adapt them depending on current situation. This paper proposes an approach for a reliable real time adaptive game AI architecture based upon player modeling.
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has the potential to enrich society with some benefits, better engineering, productivity, and improved security. The main goal of energy management architecture applied in networks is to be able to allow an efficient way to enhance sensor node energy autonomy. Nowadays, there are many open issues in WSN. One of them is the energy consumption management. The sensor node...
