Dynamic adaptation may be used to prevent software downtime while new requirements and responses to environmental conditions are incorporated into the system. Previously, we studi...
The Unified Modeling Language (UML) currently proposes a mechanism to model recurrent design structures: the parameterized collaborations. The main goal of this mechanism is to mo...
This paper describes two design patterns that are powerful tools to help teach how semaphores are used to solve synchronization problems. The patterns are general enough to be use...
Many reverse-engineering tools have been developed to detract representations from source code. Yet, most of these tools completely ignore recovery of the all-important rationale ...
The development of design patterns in object-oriented programming aims at capturing good software design in a re-usable generic form. However, design patterns are not expressible ...
