Interest in the habits of influential individuals cuts across domains. As researchers, we are intrigued why few attain significant eminence in their fields, whereas many operate in obscurity. An empirical examination of this question has been made possible by the recent availability of large scale publication data. In this paper, we use information from the AMiner Paper Citation and Author Collaboration...
Determining dependencies between different components of an application is useful in lots of applications (e.g., architecture reconstruction, reverse engineering, regression test case selection, change impact analysis). However, implementing automated methods to recover dependencies has many challenges, particularly in systems using databases, where dependencies may arise via database access. Furthermore,...
In this paper we describe the robot software development framework with database at its core. In this framework the features of database is harnessed to make various components modular, and robot data handling and processing is made much more flexible. This empowers the researchers to design the system quickly, access the data and allow multiple collaborators work to be integrated with ease. The advantage...
XML has become the preferred format for representing and exchanging structured and semi-structured data on the Web. The XML Schema language is widely used for defining and validating highly structured XML instance documents. While text-based languages, such as XML-Schema, offer great advantages for data interchange on the Internet, graphical modeling languages are widely accepted as a more visually...
This paper introduces an original approach of a customized multiple-choice question (MCQ). Compared to traditional MCQ, it is associated at an interactive software. Therefore, its objective is not only to provide education test but also to improve the autonomous learning and at the same time, to make it more attractive.
One of the most difficult jobs for requirements analysis engineers is to select the appropriate requirements analysis knowledge for the project at hand. Once the selected requirement analysis knowledge does not fit the current project situation, it is doomed that some requirements problems will be emergent and the final system canpsilat fit in with the enterprise needs at a great extent. Requirements...
Several vulnerability analysis techniques in web-based applications detect and report on different types of vulnerabilities. However, no single technique provides a generic technology-independent handling of Web-based vulnerabilities. In this paper we present our experience with and experimental exemplification of using the application vulnerability description language (AVDL) to realize a unified...
This paper provides an overview of work being done in the EntryPoint project, which is examining the first course work in computing degrees. A key goal of this project is to move away from the traditional CS1/CS2 programming courses as the start of a computing degree. In addition, the project team is looking at how these ideas might be extended to BSSE degree programs. As such, this paper will discuss...
