相关论文: The Unix KISS: A Case Study
Les developpements logiciels sur les systemes UNIX font de plus en plus appel aux logiciels libres. Nous proposons une solution de deploiement et de controle de ces logiciels libres au sein d'une grande organisation. Nous nous attachons…
Although microservices have physically isolated modules, they have failed to prevent the propagation and diffusion of dependencies. To trace the root cause of the inter-module coupling, this paper, starting from the impact assessment…
Modern online services rely on data stores that replicate their data across geographically distributed data centers. Providing strong consistency in such data stores results in high latencies and makes the system vulnerable to network…
The pivotal role of testing in high-quality software production has driven a significant effort in evaluating and assessing testing practices. We explore the state of testing in a large industrial project over an extended period. We study…
Confidential container is becoming increasingly popular as it meets both needs for efficient resource management by cloud providers, and data protection by cloud users. Specifically, confidential containers integrate the container and the…
The study of spacetime, and its role in understanding functional systems has received little attention in information science. Recent work, on the origin of universal scaling in cities and biological systems, provides an intriguing insight…
Software libraries are the elementary building blocks of open source software ecosystems, extending the capabilities of programming languages beyond their standard libraries. Although ecosystem health is often quantified using data on…
Single-address-space operating systems have well-known lightweightness benefits that result from their central design idea: the kernel and applications share a unique address space. This model makes these operating systems (OSes)…
This paper presents some preliminary results concerning a new user-friendly operating system interface based on the relational data model that is currently under development at the University of Texas at Austin. The premise of our work is…
Quantum computing is a new approach to computation that utilizes superposition, entanglement, interference, and tunneling to solve problems too complex for classical computers. This paper discusses the basic concepts and development of…
Mixed methods research is often used in software engineering, but researchers outside of the social or human sciences often lack experience when using these designs. This paper provides guiding principles and advice on how to design mixed…
Microservices architecture has been widely adopted to develop software systems, but some of its trade-offs are often ignored. In particular, the introduction of eventual consistency has a huge impact on the complexity of the application…
Recent years have seen a sharp increase in the use of open source projects by common novice users; Open Source Software (OSS) is thus no longer a reserved arena for software developers and computer gurus. Although user-centered designs are…
Delivering hands-on practice laboratories for introductory courses on operating systems is a difficult task. One of the main sources of the difficulty is the sheer size and complexity of the operating systems software. Consequently, some of…
The adoption of microservice architecture has seen a considerable upswing in recent years, mainly driven by the need to modernize legacy systems and address their limitations. Legacy systems, typically designed as monolithic applications,…
Billions of distributed, heterogeneous and resource constrained IoT devices deploy on-device machine learning (ML) for private, fast and offline inference on personal data. On-device ML is highly context dependent, and sensitive to user,…
\textbf{Background:} Fairness and diversity are receiving growing attention in software engineering, particularly as AI and machine learning systems increasingly influence decision-making processes. While fairness is often examined at the…
Reproducibility is a fundamental requirement of the scientific process since it enables outcomes to be replicated and verified. Computational scientific experiments can benefit from improved reproducibility for many reasons, including…
The frequency with which people interact with technology means that users may develop interface habits, i.e. fast, automatic responses to stable interface cues. Design guidelines often assume that interface habits are beneficial. However,…
Teaching Unix to new students is a common tasks in many higher schools. This paper presents an approach to such course where the students progress autonomously with the help of the teacher. The traditional textbook is complemented with a…
