When software products are assembled from pre-defined components, performance prediction should be based on the components also. This supports rapid model-building, using previous...
e instantiation is the transformation of abstract test cases cutable test scripts. Abstract test cases are either created during model based test case generation or are manually d...
Process patterns allow the modular modelling and adaptable application of software processes. Present descriptions of process patterns show defects like non-uniform and unequivoca...
This paperconsidersthe problem of representingcomplex systems that evolve stochastically over time. Dynamic Bayesian networks provide a compact representation for stochastic proce...
In this paper we describe and evaluate a Question Answering (QA) system that goes beyond answering factoid questions. Our approach to QA assumes no restrictions on the type of que...
