This paper presents a comparative study of three popular, Evolutionary Algorithms (EA); Genetic Algorithms (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Differential Evolution (DE) ...
— Managing security projects is a delicate activity due to the evolution of attacks. In this paper, we develop a new methodology for estimating security effort based on algebraic...
We introduce the concept of neutral emergence (defined by analogy to an information theoretic view of neutral evolution), and discuss how it might be used in the engineering of ro...
We introduce a new programming language called BlenX. It is strongly inspired to process calculi and it is an evolution of Betabinders. It has been specifically designed and implem...
In a component-based system components are basic computation units implementing specific business functions, and their interactions are explicitly represented by connectors. If th...
