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 ...
Scientific WorkFlows (SWFs) need to utilize components and applications in order to satisfy the requirements of specific workflow tasks. Technology trends in software development signify a move from component-based to service-oriented approach, therefore S ...
In this paper we present a software model of the Winner Takes Most (WTM) Kohonen neural network (KNN) with different types of the neighborhood grid. The proposed network model allows for analysis of the convergence properties such as the quantization error ...
For the optimization of dynamic systems, it is customary to use measurements to combat the effect of uncertainty. In this context, an approach that consists of tracking the necessary conditions of optimality is gaining in popularity. The approach relies st ...

An initialization mechanism is presented for Kohonen neural network implemented in CMOS technology. Proper selection of initial values of neurons’ weights has a large influence on speed of the learning algorithm and finally on the quantization error of the ...
A review. Scale-up and/or scale-down procedures are crucial during the development of chem. processes. These procedures should be integrated to form a multidisciplinary approach encompassing several branches of science and engineering. The challenge is to ...
Modern incremental and iterative software engineering processes advocate to build software systems by first creating a highly simplified and abstract model of the system which is then moved by applying a series of model improvements toward implementation. ...
Fundamentally, the development of software applications involves dealing with two distinct domains: the real world and software domains; the two converge at the point where a software application is used to make an unsatisfactory real world situation into ...
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 ...
