Virtual organizations (VOs) are communities of resource providers and users distributed over multiple policy domains. These VOs often wish to define and enforce consistent policies in addition to the policies of their underlying domains.…
Virtual environments (VEs) offer potential benefits to health and safety training: exposure to dangerous (virtual) environments; the opportunity for experiential learning; and a high level of control over the training, in that aspects can…
Objectives: This paper presents an up-to-date overview of research performed in the Virtual Reality (VR) environment ranging from definitions, its presence in the various fields, and existing market players and their projects in the VR…
The choice of a suitable service provider is an important issue often overlooked in existing architectures. Current systems focus mostly on the service itself, paying little (if at all) attention to the service provider. In the Service…
Requirement Engineering (RE) is a Software Engineering (SE) process of defining, documenting, and maintaining the requirements from a problem. It is one of the most complex processes of SE because it addresses the relation between customer…
This paper investigates the incentives of mobile network operators (MNOs) for acquiring additional spectrum to offer mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) and thereby inviting competition for a common pool of end users (EUs). We consider…
Virtual networks are an innovative abstraction that extends cloud computing concepts to the network: by supporting bandwidth reservations between compute nodes (e.g., virtual machines), virtual networks can provide a predictable performance…
Due to the abrupt arise of pandemic worldwide, the video conferencing platforms are becoming ubiquitously available and being embedded into either various digital devices or the collaborative daily work. Even though the service provider has…
Collaborative Business Analysis (CBA) is a methodology that involves bringing together different stakeholders, including business users, analysts, and technical specialists, to collaboratively analyze data and gain insights into business…
In this document we describe our work-in-progress for enabling fine-grain authorization of resource management. In particular, we address the needs of Virtual Organizations (VOs) to enforce their own policies in addition to those of the…
Virtual organizations are dynamic, inter-organizational collaborations that involve systems and services belonging to different security domains. Several solutions have been proposed to guarantee the enforcement of the access control…
Designing new industrial materials with desired properties can be very expensive and time consuming. The main difficulty is to generate compounds that correspond to realistic materials. Indeed, the description of compounds as vectors of…
Benchmarks such as SWE-bench and ARC-AGI demonstrate how shared datasets accelerate progress toward artificial general intelligence (AGI). We introduce VCBench, the first benchmark for predicting founder success in venture capital (VC), a…
Vibe coding is a new programming paradigm in which human engineers instruct large language model (LLM) agents to complete complex coding tasks with little supervision. Although vibe coding is increasingly adopted, are its outputs really…
Requirements Engineering has recently been greatly influenced by the way how firms use Open Source Software (OSS) and Software Ecosystems (SECOs) as a part of their product development and business models. This is further emphasized by the…
Highly automated robot ecologies (HARE), or societies of independent autonomous robots or agents, are rapidly becoming an important part of much of the world's critical infrastructure. As with human societies, regulation, wherein a…
VANET security introduces significant processing overhead for resource-constrained On-Board Units (OBUs). Here, we propose a novel scheme that allows secure Vehicular Communication (VC) systems to scale well beyond network densities for…
Team closeness provides the foundations of trust and communication, contributing to teams' success and viability. However, newcomers often struggle to be included in a team since incumbents tend to interact more with other existing members.…
We present early experiences with defining and validating a software maturity model (SMM) for a distributed, research-driven organization of independent and self-organizing teams of diverse cultures, experience and maturity. The paper…
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) produce behavior through execution on substrates coupling computation with physical processes. However, usual engineering approaches do not treat execution semantics as first-class engineering entities. Formal…
