Any program that is designed to accomplish certain objectives, needs to establish program level controls pertaining to the overall goal. A critical aspect that determines the success of a program is the quality of the controls and their…

Fault-proneness is a measure that indicates the possibility of programming errors occurring within a software system. On the other hand, change-proneness refers to the potential for modifications to be made to the software. Both of these…

Foundation Models (FMs) have demonstrated unprecedented capabilities including zero-shot learning, high fidelity data synthesis, and out of domain generalization. However, as we show in this paper, FMs still have poor out-of-the-box…

This paper presents a SysML-based approach to enhance functional and software development process within an industrial context. The recent changes in technology such as electromobility and increased automation in heavy construction…

Measuring performance & quantifying a performance change are core evaluation techniques in programming language and systems research. Of 122 recent scientific papers, as many as 65 included experimental evaluation that quantified a…

Essence Framework EF aims at addressing the core problems of software engineering SE and its practices

This paper suggests that by operationalizing the concept of commitment in the shape of a model, a new insight is provided in improving software processes - a more human centered approach as opposed to various technical approaches available.…

Most engineers use measurements to make decisions. However, measurements are rarely used for decisions about constructing software products. While many approaches to measuring attributes of software (``metrics'') have been developed, they…

In this note, we present a novel measure of similarity between two functions. It quantifies how the sub-optimality gaps of two functions convert to each other, and unifies several existing notions of functional similarity. We show that it…

Software integrity measurement and attestation (M&A) are critical technologies for evaluating the trustworthiness of software platforms. To best support these technologies, next generation systems must provide a centralized service for…

Most of today's products and services are software-based. Organizations that develop software want to maintain and improve their competitiveness by controlling software-related risks. To do this, they need to align their business goals with…

The paper describes an approach to measuring convergence of an algorithm to its result in terms of an entropy-like function of partitions of its inputs of a given length. The goal is to look at the algorithmic data processing from the…

Foundation Models (FMs) have become essential components in modern software systems, excelling in tasks such as pattern recognition and unstructured data processing. However, their capabilities are complemented by the precision,…

Benchmarking tools, including stochastic frontier analysis (SFA), data envelopment analysis (DEA), and its stochastic extension (StoNED) are core tools in economics used to estimate an efficiency envelope and production inefficiencies from…

Before applying data analytics or machine learning to a data set, a vital step is usually the construction of an informative set of features from the data. In this paper, we present SMARTFEAT, an efficient automated feature engineering tool…

Purpose: The study aims to investigate the application of the data element market in software project management, focusing on improving effort estimation by addressing challenges faced by traditional methods. Design/methodology/approach:…

The aim of the FESCA workshop is to bring together both young and senior researchers from formal methods, software engineering, and industry interested in the development and application of formal modelling approaches as well as associated…

Software testing uses wide range of different tools to enhance the complicated process of defining quality of the system under test. Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) provides us with algorithms of deriving formal ontology from a set of objects…

The size of a software artifact influences the software quality and impacts the development process. In industry, when software size exceeds certain thresholds, memory errors accumulate and development tools might not be able to cope…

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…
