The ``Internet of Things'' intends to enhance items of our everyday life with information and/or processing and interconnect them, so that computers can sense, integrate, present, and react on all kinds of aspects of the physical world. As this implies tha ...
As the communication requirements of current and future Multiprocessor Systems on Chips (MPSoCs) continue to increase, scalable communication architectures are needed to support the heavy communication demands of the system. This is reflected in the recent ...
Using multiple contexts improves model understandability and contributes to solving a scalability problem. In our work, we introduce a modeling method called Systemic Enterprise Architecture Methodology (SEAM) that considers systems to be designed in diffe ...
Mountain search and rescue in the Alps of Austria and Switzerland is a prominent and challenging example of emergency response tasks. Significant numbers of search and rescue operations are carried out every year. In Switzerland, the "Alpine Rettung" in 20 ...
As a consequence of the co-evolution of business and information technology (IT), the responsibilities of software engineers are expanding. They are becoming much more involved in business-related issues. When defining computing curriculums, this trend nee ...
A review on the methods of characterization of multicomponent microcapsules. Requirements to measure the ingress and egress of small and macromols. through the membrane are discussed, along with the relevant theory. The relevant factors to consider in micr ...
Modeling complex systems can not be done without considering a system from multiple views. Using multiple views improves model understandability. However the analysis of models that integrate multiple views is difficult. In many cases a model can be evalua ...
The functional complexity of hardware and software systems is growing exponentially. This demands an integration of system validation in the design phase to guarantee that a concrete implementation conforms to the modeled requirements. System validation pr ...
This paper introduces four sociological concepts which we argue are important for the creation of autonomous social agents capable of behaving and interacting realistically with each other as virtual humans. A list of functional requirements based on these ...
In support of flexible composition, components need to be adaptable and they need to have first-class plugs. Abstract state machines and object-oriented programming each satisfy one of these requirements very well but satisfy the other only incompletely. T ...
