Sustainability has evolved from an emerging concern into a fundamental responsibility in software design, development, and operation. Research increasingly explores how sustainability can be systematically integrated into existing software…
The knowledge of the world is passed on through libraries. Accordingly, domain expertise and experiences should also be transferred within an enterprise by a knowledge base. Therefore, models are an established medium to describe good…
Software production research is quickly evolving on two parallel approaches: conventional and bio-inspired. The bio-inspired approaches are generally developed and presented as enhancements of the conventional ones. However the conventional…
During these last years, the use of the web technologies in the enterprises becomes an essential factor to define a new business model. Among these technologies, web services and enterprise portals have gathered to integrate existing…
Ecosystems are complex and dynamic systems. Over billions of years, they have developed advanced capabilities to provide stable functions, despite changes in their environment. In this paper, we argue that the laws of organization and…
An essential characteristic of mature software and system development organizations is the definition and use of explicit process models. For a number of reasons, it can be valuable to produce new process models by tailoring existing…
Systems tend to become more and more complex. This has a direct impact on system engineering processes. Two of the most important phases in these processes are requirements engineering and quality assurance. Two significant complexity…
This article provides an overview of the importance of requirements gathering in secure software development. It explains the crucial role of Requirements Engineers in defining and understanding the customer's needs and desires, as well as…
The development and maintenance of cloud software is complicated by complex but crucial technological requirements that are tightly coupled with each other and with the softwares actual business functionality. Consequently, the complexity…
Component Based Approach has been introduced in core engineering discipline long back but the introduction to component based concept in software perspective is recently developed by Object Management Group. Its benefits from the…
[Context & Motivation] Adaptive systems are an important research area. The dominant reason for adaptivity in systems are changes in the environment. Thus, it is an important question how to model the environment and how to determine the…
The top-down approach of engineering software integration is considered in this parer. A set of advantages of this approach are presented, by examples. All examples are supplied by open source code.
As software projects are very diverse, each software development process must be adjusted to the needs of the project and the corresponding development team. Frequently, we find different methods and practices combined in a so-called hybrid…
Component-based software engineering aims to reduce software development effort by reusing established components as building blocks of complex systems. Defining components in general-purpose programming languages restricts their reuse to…
In software industry a large number of projects continue to fail due to non technical issue such as communication gap,requirements and poor executive. The authors identify the reasons for which are available for software development life…
As a consequence to the hype of Grid computing, such systems have seldom been designed using formal techniques. The complexity and rapidly growing demand around Grid technologies has favour the use of classical development techniques,…
Usability engineering is situated in a much larger social and institutional context than is usually acknowledged by usability professionals in the way that they define their field. The definitions and processes used in the improvement of…
The continuous software engineering paradigm is gaining popularity in modern development practices, where the interleaving of design and runtime activities is induced by the continuous evolution of software systems. In this context,…
There is a diversity of models explaining organizational culture and how these complex aspects can be addressed in connection to organizational change efforts. This workshop paper claims that models already exist for dealing with the…
Software intensive systems play a crucial role in most, if not all, aspects of modern society. As such, both their sustainability and their role in supporting sustainable processes, must be realized by design. To this aim, the architecture…
