Quality models for software architecture are taxonomies of quality attributes, commonly used to specify and evaluate nonfunctionalrequirements. Most quality models offer a two-level approach, distinguishing externally ob...

In this paper, we present a UML profile and a group of UML patterns for documenting the component-andconnector views of software architectures [8]. They facilitate the creation of the component and connector viewtype in...

In 21st century, convergences of technologies and services in heterogeneous environment have contributed multi-traffic. This scenario will affect computer network on learning system in higher educational Institutes. Impl...

Asymmetric or heterogeneous multi-core (AMC) architectures have definite performance, performance per watt and fault tolerance advantages for a wide range of workloads. We propose a 16 core AMC architecture mixing simple...

Object-oriented software development has proven effective for systems development, but the creation of reusable and changeable software architectures is still a challenging task. Design patterns capture the expertise for...

Digital repositories acting as resource aggregators typically face different challenges, roughly classified in three main categories: extraction, improvement and storage. The first category comprises issues related to de...

Mobile agent systems have received important attention in the last years as a new programming paradigm for widely distributed and heterogeneous systems. In this article, a multi-paradigm approach for the development of i...

Modern computers present a big gap between peak performance and sustained performance. There are many reasons for this situation, but mainly involving an inefficient usage of computational resources. Nowadays the memory ...

Any system interacting with a data base requires modules capable of operating data stored in it. Its development times generally vary between 50 to 60 % of the time used for the application life cycle. The present paper ...

Software agents are programs that can observe their environment and act in an attempt to reach their design goals. In most cases the selection of particular agent architecture determines the behaviour in response to the ...
