We introduce MOS, a software application designed to facilitate the deployment, integration, management, and analysis of mathematical optimization models. MOS approaches mathematical optimization at a higher level of abstraction than…
In large-scale projects operated in regulated environments, standard development processes are employed to meet strict compliance demands. Since such processes are usually complex, providing process users with access to their required…
Drawing on ideas from continuous integration, we present concepts of an automated benchmarking pipeline for high performance applications. Customization and collaboration have been key design goals owing to the requirements of…
Cloud computing is the next generation computing. Adopting the cloud computing is like signing up new form of a website. The GUI which controls the cloud computing make is directly control the hardware resource and your application. The…
Software as a Service (SaaS) is well established as an effective model for the development, deployment and customization of software. As it continues to gain more momentum in the IT industry, many user experience challenges and issues are…
In the modern world, our cities and societies face several technological and societal challenges, such as rapid urbanization, global warming & climate change, the digital divide, and social inequalities, increasing the need for more…
Service-Oriented Computing delivers the promise of configuring and reconfiguring software systems to address user's needs in a dynamic way. Context-aware computing promises to capture the user's needs and hence the requirements they have on…
Our society is digital: industry, science, governance, and individuals depend, often transparently, on the inter-operation of large numbers of distributed computer systems. Although the society takes them almost for granted, these computer…
The intensive flow of personal data associated with the trend of computerizing aspects of people's diversity in their daily lives is associated with issues concerning not only people protection and their trust in new technologies, but also…
The crowdsourcing consists in the externalisation of tasks to a crowd of people remunerated to execute this ones. The crowd, usually diversified, can include users without qualification and/or motivation for the tasks. In this paper we will…
For software interacting directly with real-world end-users, it is common practice to script scenario tests validating the system's compliance with a number of its features. However, these do not accommodate the replication of the type of…
Recommender systems have become increasingly important with the rise of the web as a medium for electronic and business transactions. One of the key drivers of this technology is the ease with which users can provide feedback about their…
It is now commonplace to observe that we are facing a deluge of online information. Researchers have of course long acknowledged the potential value of this information since digital traces make it possible to directly observe, describe and…
Natural computing offers new opportunities to understand, model and analyze the complexity of the physical and human-created environment. This paper examines the application of natural computing in environmental informatics, by…
Diffusion Models are probabilistic models that create realistic samples by simulating the diffusion process, gradually adding and removing noise from data. These models have gained popularity in domains such as image processing, speech…
Formal modelling of Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) is a challenging task due to high complexity, interaction, parallelism and continuous change of roles and organisation between agents. In this paper we record our research experience on formal…
Future mobile networks supporting Internet of Things are expected to provide both high throughput and low latency to user-specific services. One way to overcome this challenge is to adopt network function virtualization and Multi-access…
Quantitative social science is not only about regression analysis or, in general, data inference. Computer simulations of social mechanisms have a 60-year long history. They have been used for many different purposes -- to test scenarios,…
In the field of computational science and engineering, workflows often entail the application of various software, for instance, for simulation or pre- and postprocessing. Typically, these components have to be combined in arbitrarily…
The ubiquitous presence of computer simulations in all kinds of research areas evidence their role as the new driving force for the advancement of science and engineering research. Nothing seems to escape the image of success that computer…
