Use cases have achieved wide use as specification tools for systems observable behavior, but there still remains a large gap between specifying behavior and determining the softwar...
Conservative adaptation consists in a minimal change on a source case to be consistent with the target case, given the domain knowledge. It has been formalised in a previous work t...
Manually tuning tens to hundreds of configuration parameters in a complex software system like a database or an application server is an arduous task. Recent work has looked into ...
Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is arguably the most effective energy reduction technique. The multiple-voltage DVS systems, which can operate only at pre-determined discrete voltag...
While a typical software component has a clearly specified (static) interface in terms of the methods and the input/output types they support, information about the correct sequen...
