• Improved detection of central apneas in premature infants.
• High AUROC values ...

Apnea of prematurity is one of the most common diagnosis in neonatal intensive care units. Apneas can be classified as central, obstructive or mixed. According to the current international standards, ...

Genetic Improvement (GI) can be used to give better quality software and to create new functionality.

We show that GI can evolve the PowerPC open source GNU C runtime library square root function into cube root, binary logarithm log2 and reciprocal ...

Digital forensics can no longer tolerate software that cannot be relied upon to perform specific functions such as file recovery. Indistinct and non-standardized results increase the risk of misinterpretation by digital forensic ...

Several models and design spaces have been defined and are regularly used to describe how modalities can be fused together in an interactive multimodal system. However, models such as CASE, the CARE properties or TYCOON have all been defined more than ...

Successful modeling tools need to effectively support individual as well as team-based work (collaboration) within colocated and virtual environments. In the past, achieving this has been challenging, since traditional modeling tools are desktop-...

Deutero learning (DL) involves the use of an organizational learning (OL) strategy for the adoption of learning behavior, or simply `learning to learn.' This article describes the application of an evolutionary prototyping form of action research in a ...

Round-trip source code engineering is often an integral part of modern CASE tools. It allows programmers to design their applications in high-level, intuitive and self-documenting way. This paper shows principles and algorithms used in new open-source ...

Meeting multiple Quality of Service (QoS) requirements is an important factor in the success of complex software systems. This paper presents an automated, model-based scheduler synthesis approach for scheduling application software tasks to meet ...

An adaptation contract describes composition constraints and adaptation requirements among several services which were not initially built to interoperate with each other. The manual writing of this specification by a designer is a difficult and error-...

The market for applications developed for mobile devices is growing as the hardware capabilities increase while costs drop. At the same time, the inability to write code once becomes a noticeable problem resulting in the time consuming task of porting ...

During the software development life cycle, testing is highly needed to assure the quality of the software process and product. For many years, researchers and practitioners came-up with a variety of software tools to automate the testing process. In ...

Traditional CASE tools are desktop-based, so they do not support online software collaboration. That is, they do not allow members of software project teams who are geographically distributed to collaborate and work together on software projects. This ...

In software engineering projects, there are two different types of modeling tools. On the one hand, there are tools to model the system under construction, i.e. tools for requirements or UML tools for design. On the other hand, there are tools to model ...

While business process definition is becoming more and more popular as an instrument for describing human activities, there is a growing need for software tools supporting business process abstractions to help users organize and monitor their desktop ...

The often changing needs of users will certainly leadto many modifications of code. Due to lack of CASE tool onLinux platform, it is difficult to maintain and modify Linuxapplication code. After analyzing current CASE tools, on basis of several ...

This paper presents a proprietary application generator based on UML specification. The tool is designed for generating the source code in various programming languages from the same specification. The main characteristics of the existent tools are ...

Functional requirements must be tested to check if the system executes as the end user expects. Validation environments must be able to test multiple kinds of applications that belong to different domains and technologies. Since this wide validation ...

The growth of mobile devices with near PC equivalent capabilities has brought with it the possibility of mobile P2P systems. However, the nature of mobile devices brings additional issues that need to be considered during the development process, and in ...

Generative Programming advocates developing a family of systems rather than a set of single systems. Feature modeling can assist in supporting the development of such software product lines through software reuse. To our knowledge, CASE-FX is the first ...

A product model is a formal and structured definition of product information. The most common procedure for defining a product data model is to first describe the business and/or engineering process in a formal process model, then to create a product ...
