Vérification formelleIn the context of hardware and software systems, formal verification is the act of proving or disproving the correctness of intended algorithms underlying a system with respect to a certain formal specification or property, using formal methods of mathematics. Formal verification can be helpful in proving the correctness of systems such as: cryptographic protocols, combinational circuits, digital circuits with internal memory, and software expressed as source code.
Bytecode JavaLe bytecode Java est un bytecode destiné à regrouper des instructions exécutables par une machine virtuelle Java. Par extension, il désigne un flux d'octets binaire au format d'une classe Java. Ce flux est habituellement le résultat de la compilation d'un code source, ce code source n'étant pas obligatoirement écrit en langage Java. Ce bytecode peut être exécuté sous de nombreux systèmes d'exploitation par une machine virtuelle Java.
Logical constantIn logic, a logical constant or constant symbol of a language is a symbol that has the same semantic value under every interpretation of . Two important types of logical constants are logical connectives and quantifiers. The equality predicate (usually written '=') is also treated as a logical constant in many systems of logic.
Java syntaxThe syntax of Java is the set of rules defining how a Java program is written and interpreted. The syntax is mostly derived from C and C++. Unlike in C++, in Java there are no global functions or variables, but there are data members which are also regarded as global variables. All code belongs to classes and all values are objects. The only exception is the primitive types, which are not represented by a class instance for performance reasons (though can be automatically converted to objects and vice versa via autoboxing).
Cycle de développement (logiciel)Il existe différents types de cycles de développement entrant dans la réalisation d'un logiciel. Ces cycles prennent en compte toutes les étapes de la conception d'un logiciel. Ce cycle de développement est aussi utilisé dans l'industrie aéronautique et spatiale pour définir des systèmes, ou des sous systèmes embarqués ou au sol qu'ils incluent ou pas de l'informatique. vignette|Évolution des cycles basiques vignette|Modèle en cascade Modèle en cascade Le modèle en cascade est issu du développement de logiciels.
Scrum (développement)thumb|Schéma d'évènements du framework Scrum. Scrum est un framework ou cadre de développement de produits complexes. Il est défini par ses créateurs comme un « cadre de travail holistique itératif qui se concentre sur les buts communs en livrant de manière productive et créative des produits de la plus grande valeur possible ». Scrum est considéré comme un groupe de pratiques répondant pour la plupart aux préconisations du manifeste agile. Scrum s'appuie sur le découpage d'un projet en « boîtes de temps », nommées sprints (« pointes de vitesse »).
Rational unified processThe rational unified process (RUP) is an iterative software development process framework created by the Rational Software Corporation, a division of IBM since 2003. RUP is not a single concrete prescriptive process, but rather an adaptable process framework, intended to be tailored by the development organizations and software project teams that will select the elements of the process that are appropriate for their needs. RUP is a specific implementation of the Unified Process.
Programming language specificationIn computer programming, a programming language specification (or standard or definition) is a documentation artifact that defines a programming language so that users and implementors can agree on what programs in that language mean. Specifications are typically detailed and formal, and primarily used by implementors, with users referring to them in case of ambiguity; the C++ specification is frequently cited by users, for instance, due to the complexity.
Design methodsDesign methods are procedures, techniques, aids, or tools for designing. They offer a number of different kinds of activities that a designer might use within an overall design process. Conventional procedures of design, such as drawing, can be regarded as design methods, but since the 1950s new procedures have been developed that are more usually grouped together under the name of "design methods". What design methods have in common is that they "are attempts to make public the hitherto private thinking of designers; to externalise the design process".
User experience designUser experience design (UX design, UXD, UED, or XD) is the process of defining the experience a user would go through when interacting with a company, its services, and its products. Design decisions in UX design are often driven by research, data analysis, and test results rather than aesthetic preferences and opinions. Unlike user interface design, which focuses solely on the design of a computer interface, UX design encompasses all aspects of a user's perceived experience with a product or website, such as its usability, usefulness, desirability, brand perception, and overall performance.
