Several requirements engineering tools and techniques have been proposed amongst which, problem-oriented approaches are recognized as techniques that start with problem analysis rather than solution analysis. Such approaches are distinguished by their ability of solving a software-related problem based on the category the problem falls into. In this paper, a mapping from problem frames (PF) as one problem-oriented approach to use cases as the most popular requirements engineering technique is provided. Bridging problem frames with use cases is important for benefiting from the popularity of use cases while observing the advantages of problem frames. It can also build up a trust to PF approaches within the software engineering community.","PeriodicalId":102108,"journal":{"name":"2010 Eighth ACIS International Conference on Software Engineering Research, Management and Applications","volume":"157 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133645287","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Much software engineering works have focused on these. When it comes to software quality, customer requirements are starting points for assuring quality in software development projects [3]. Currently, software engineering literature still finds effective ways to manage requirements within the entire project life cycle, but does not have a complete solution for it. Besides, some solutions are quite time consuming works for project management. At this point, tools for managing requirements help keeping specifications consistent, up-to-date and efficiently accessible. The purpose of this paper is to address the development of a new tool for requirements management with support for the evolution aspect of the grand challenges of traceability as well as making requirement specification and establishing traceability links. An approach to support the sustained evolution of traceability links is proposed and outlined. A fine-grained differencing approach on the link endpoints is used to maintain the links in a scalable manner. Details of the link model, representation and screen are given followed by the process used to evolve traceability links.","PeriodicalId":102108,"journal":{"name":"2010 Eighth ACIS International Conference on Software Engineering Research, Management and Applications","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123069645","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A first overview about existing causal network approaches shows the problems and possible benefits using these formal techniques in the software engineering area. The definition and extension of the causal modelling using causal networks helps to understand the relationships between the different software process artefacts and their causalities. The causal network based process model (CNPM) concept is based on the causal network idea of Pearl. The description of first applications of the CNPM approach for CMMI demonstrates the empirical reasoning of the software improvement processes in an explicit manner.","PeriodicalId":102108,"journal":{"name":"2010 Eighth ACIS International Conference on Software Engineering Research, Management and Applications","volume":"330 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122096333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Grid Computing provides powerful -- but also highly complex -- mechanisms to realize such tasks. Also, there is a steadily growing number of downtime-critical applications, requiring redundant servers to ensure service availability in case of component failures. To cope with the demand for server redundancy and service availability, the IETF has recently standardized the lightweight Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool) framework, which is a common architecture for server pool and session management. In this paper, we first introduce the concept of RSerPool and then present the modeling thoughts of RSPLIB and the underlying general groupware design. Based on RSPLIB, we will illustratively show how to easily develop applications on top of RSerPool. We will also offer an application evaluation example for a proof-of-concept setup to distribute ray-tracing computation workload into a compute pool.","PeriodicalId":102108,"journal":{"name":"2010 Eighth ACIS International Conference on Software Engineering Research, Management and Applications","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128278172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This trend has necessitated the advent of development approaches that are better equipped and flexible enough to cope with modern challenges. Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) and Situational Method Engineering (SME) are approaches addressing this requirement: MDA provides promising means for automating the software process, and revitalizes the role of modeling in software development, SME focuses on project-specific methodology construction, mainly through assembling reusable method fragments (process patterns) retrieved from a method base. We provide a set of high-level process patterns for model-driven development which have been derived from a study of six prominent MDAbased methodologies, and which form the basis for a proposed generic MDA Software Process (MDASP). These process patterns can promote SME by providing classes of common process components which can be used for assembling, tailoring, and extending MDA-based methodologies.","PeriodicalId":102108,"journal":{"name":"2010 Eighth ACIS International Conference on Software Engineering Research, Management and Applications","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128155778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their chance of success using a standard model is determined by a reliable assessment of their current processes and in determining which processes need to be improved. However, the current existing automated tools for process assessments, can not verify the authenticity of answers, and are therefore limited in their reliability level depending only on the employees’ responses. This paper presents our research in psychometric theory applied to questionnaire-based appraisals, to determine the feasibility of combining them together in order to develop a reliable assessment mechanism providing more reliable evidence about the organizations’ current maturity/capability level. We have found that current existing tools implicity include some elements of psychometric theory but more can be included. Thus, this paper presents a first attempt to formally integrate the psychometric theory into the questionnaire-based appraisals.","PeriodicalId":102108,"journal":{"name":"2010 Eighth ACIS International Conference on Software Engineering Research, Management and Applications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128911433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The system uses an algorithm known as Dynamic Merge Cache to handle data caching, query generation, transformations, and joining with minimal operational interference to source databases. The system is able to combine any subset of configured databases and convert the information into XML. The resulting XML is made available to analysis tools through a web service. After the system connects to a remote database, a metadata catalog is created from the source database. The user is able to configure which tables and fields to export from the remote dataset. The user is also able to filter, transform, and combine data.

In several protocols such as SLTP, this issue is considered for local time estimation of a remote node. Cluster creation is according to ID technique. This technique incurs an increase in cluster overlapping and eventually the routing algorithm will be affected and requires more hops to move from one cluster to another remote cluster. In this article, we present L-SYNC method, which creates large degree clusters for wireless sensor networks synchronization. Using large degree clustering, L-SYNC can reduce path hops. Also, L-SYNC uses linear regression method to calculate clock offset and skew in each cluster. Therefore, it is capable to compute skew and offset intervals between each node and its head cluster and, in other words, it can estimate the local time of remote nodes in future and past. To estimate the local time for remote nodes, routing algorithm is used and conversion technique is performed in each time changing hop. The fewer L-SYNC hops could increase the precision. Simulation results illustrate that monotonous clustering formation can increase the precision in synchronization. However, more overhead and time period are needed for clustering formation","PeriodicalId":102108,"journal":{"name":"2010 Eighth ACIS International Conference on Software Engineering Research, Management and Applications","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134397313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
