Nowadays models, rather than code, become the key artifacts of software development. Consequently, this raises the level of requirements for modeling languages on which modeling practitioners should rely in their work. A minor inconsistency of a modeling l ...
In this paper we present our motivations for proposing of a generic model for the description of quality attributes of software artifacts, in particular suited to software components. The conceptual ideas for our quality description model are derived from ...

We explain two approaches to the design of system modeling frameworks and perform their comparative analysis. The analysis familiarizes the reader with strengths and weaknesses of the approaches, and thus helps to grasp the preferences for their practical ...
Software engineering techniques made it possible for developers to build larger, and more accurate, reliable, and maintainable software-intensive systems. This was essentially possible by introducing techniques for raising the level of abstraction for desc ...
Language models for speech recognition are generally trained on text corpora. Since these corpora do not contain the disfluencies found in natural speech, there is a train/test mismatch when these models are applied to conversational speech. In this work w ...
Modeling approaches often are not adapted to human reasoning: models are ambiguous and imprecise. A same model element may have multiple meanings in different functional roles of a system. Existing modeling approaches do not relate explicitly these functio ...
In this paper we present our rational for proposing a conceptual model for the description of quality attributes of software artifacts, in particular suited to software components. The scientific foundations for our quality description model are derived fr ...
Capturing concerns that crosscut the boundaries of multiple components in software architecture descriptions is problematic. Standard description languages, such as UML, do not provide adequate means to understand and modularize such concerns, but aspect-o ...
