We propose a new architecture for optimization modeling frameworks in which solvers are expressed as computation graphs in a framework like TensorFlow rather than as standalone programs built on a low-level linear algebra interface. Our new…
Modern distributed storage systems often use erasure codes to protect against disk and node failures to increase reliability, while trying to meet the latency requirements of the applications and clients. Storage systems may have caches at…
Microservices have been a key architectural approach for over a decade, transforming system design by promoting decentralization and allowing development teams to work independently on specific microservices. While loosely coupled…
In its 14 years, distributed ledger technology has attracted increasing attention, investments, enthusiasm, and user base. However, ongoing doubts about its usefulness and recent losses of trust in prominent cryptocurrencies have fueled…
Virtual reality simulation has become a popular approach for training and assessing medical students. It offers diverse scenarios, realistic visuals, and quantitative performance metrics for objective evaluation. However, creating these…
The fast-growing Web API landscape brings clients more options than ever before---in theory. In practice, they cannot easily switch between different providers offering similar functionality. We discuss a vision for developing Web APIs…
Since its introduction in the early 90s, the web has become the largest application platform available globally. HyperText Markup Language (HTML) has been an essential part of the web since the beginning, as it allows defining webpages in a…
A fundamental building block of a mobile application is the ability to persist program data between different invocations. Referred to as \emph{persistence}, this functionality is commonly implemented by means of persistence frameworks.…
Current Serverless abstractions (e.g., FaaS) poorly support non-functional requirements (e.g., QoS and constraints), are provider-dependent, and are incompatible with other cloud abstractions (e.g., databases). As a result, application…
Event sourced systems are increasing in popularity because they are reliable, flexible, and scalable. In this article, we point a microscope at a software architecture pattern that is rapidly gaining popularity in industry, but has not…
Digitalization in many economic sectors drove the financial system to adapt to new paradigms of technological transformation. Moreover, the extant regulatory framework forced the financial system to reconsider its business models and its…
Distributed knowledge based applications in open domain rely on common sense information which is bound to be uncertain and incomplete. To draw the useful conclusions from ambiguous data, one must address uncertainties and conflicts…
Open source is experiencing a renaissance period, due to the appearance of modern platforms and workflows for developing and maintaining public code. As a result, developers are creating open source software at speeds never seen before.…
During the life cycle of an XML application, both schemas and queries may change from one version to another. Schema evolutions may affect query results and potentially the validity of produced data. Nowadays, a challenge is to assess and…
Modern software development is increasingly dependent on components, libraries and frameworks coming from third-party vendors or open-source suppliers and made available through a number of platforms (or forges). This way of writing…
Software architecture plays a central role in the design, development, and maintenance of software systems. With the rise of cloud computing, microservices, and containers, architectural practices have diversified. Understanding these…
Minimalist market design is an economic design framework developed from the perspective of an outsider -- one seeking to improve real institutions without a commission or official mandate. It offers a structured, "minimally invasive" method…
Opportunistic networking is one way to realize pervasive applications while placing little demand on network infrastructure, especially for operating in less well connected environments. In contrast to the ubiquitous network access model…
Companies implement different frameworks and best practices with the objective to improve the project management success rate and improve the business adaptability to the changing business environment. Project management framework (PRINCE2)…
Serverless computing along with Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is forming a new computing paradigm that is anticipated to found the next generation of cloud systems. The popularity of this paradigm is due to offering a highly transparent…
