We show that every function f implemented as a lookup table can be implemented such that the computational complexity of evaluating f^m(x) is small, independently of m and x. The implementation only increases the storage space by a…

Compositional minimisation can be an effective technique to reduce the state space explosion problem. This technique considers a parallel composition of several processes. In its simplest form, each sequential process is replaced by an…

The rapid evolution of network services demands new paradigms for studying and designing networks. In order to understand the underlying mechanisms that provide network functions, we propose a framework which enables the functional analysis…

Submodular functions are at the core of many machine learning and data mining tasks. The underlying submodular functions for many of these tasks are decomposable, i.e., they are sum of several simple submodular functions. In many data…

Microservice-based systems are often complex to understand, especially when their sizes grow. Abstracted views help practitioners with the system understanding from a certain perspective. Recent advancement in interactive data visualization…

Microservices have been recognized for over a decade. They reshaped system design enabling decentralization and independence of development teams working on particular microservices. While loosely coupled microservices are desired, it is…

Designing and implementing systems as an interconnection of smaller subsystems is a common practice for modularity and standardization of components and design algorithms. Although not typically cast in this framework, many of these…

We study the arity gap of functions of several variables defined on an arbitrary set A and valued in another set B. The arity gap of such a function is the minimum decrease in the number of essential variables when variables are identified.…

Designing systems is typically uncertain and ambiguous at early stages. Set-based design supports alternative exploration and gradual uncertainty reduction during the early lifecycle, making it practical for complex systems design. In…

Monolithic applications used to be considered the standard for software development. However, due to the rapid evolution of technology and the increasing demand for scalability and flexibility, these applications have become increasingly…

As microservice-based systems scale across the cloud-edge continuum, traditional centralized scheduling mechanisms increasingly struggle with latency, coordination overhead, and fault tolerance. This paper presents a new architectural…

Modern software architectures are characterized by their cloud-native, modular, and microservice-based designs. While these systems are known for their efficiency, they also face complex challenges in service optimization, especially in…

Multi-attributed graph matching is a problem of finding correspondences between two sets of data while considering their complex properties described in multiple attributes. However, the information of multiple attributes is likely to be…

In the micro frontends architectural style, the frontend is divided into smaller components, which can range from a simple button to an entire page. The goal is to improve scalability, resilience, and team independence, albeit at the cost…

Multi-task learning aims to improve generalization performance of multiple prediction tasks by appropriately sharing relevant information across them. In the context of deep neural networks, this idea is often realized by hand-designed…

A number of companies are trying to migrate large monolithic software systems to Service Oriented Architectures. A common approach to do this is to first identify and describe desired services (i.e., create a model), and then to locate…

[Context] Microservices enable the decomposition of applications into small and independent services connected together. The independence between services could positively affect the development velocity of a project, which is considered an…

Microservice architectures form the backbone of modern software systems for their scalability, resilience, and maintainability, but their rise in cloud-native environments raises energy efficiency concerns. While prior research addresses…

The development of an IT strategy and ensuring that it is the best possible one for business is a key problem many organizations face. This problem is that of linking business architecture to IT architecture in general and application…

Function is defined as the ensemble of tasks that enable the product to complete the designed purpose. Functional tools, such as functional modeling, offer decision guidance in the early phase of product design, where explicit design…
