With its real-time capabilities, stream processing is popular for applications like anomaly detection for residential gateways and analytics for business intelligence. Just as other areas of computing, there has been an inevitable trend to shift stream pro ...
This text address the challenge of answering to two inseparable question: What is a just territory ? and What can we do to approach more just territories? The first section of this text explores three approaches of spatial justice as deployed by Jacques Lé ...
Software upgrades are frequent. Unfortunately, many of the upgrades either fail or misbehave. We argue that many of these failures can be avoided for users of the new version of the software by exploiting the characteristics of the upgrade and feedback fro ...
Rigorous system design requires the use of a single powerful component framework allowing the representation of the designed system at different levels of detail, from application software to its implementation. This is essential for ensuring the overall c ...
With the prosperity of cloud computing, an increasing number of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) move their business to public clouds such as Amazon EC2. To help tenants deploy services in the cloud, researchers either conduct performance evaluati ...
Despite major advances in the engineering of maintainable and robust software over the years, upgrading software remains a primitive and error-prone activity. In this dissertation, we argue that several problems with upgrading software are caused by a poor ...
Debugging is a hard and time-consuming programming task that appears in the most stages of software development and maintenance. Therefore, any improvement in the debugging practice can significantly reduce the time and costs of software production. In thi ...
Microsimulation-based models of urban systems have proven to be powerful tools for prediction and scenario analysis, with a particular yet continuously expanding focus on transportation and land use. They bring along a high level of detail, but they also c ...
Traditional testing is inadequate for the complexity of modern cloud application software stacks. While the platform-as-a-service (PaaS) model has streamlined application development and deployment, its multiple abstraction layers and dependencies have mad ...
