Cognitive Informatics is a new research area that combines concepts from cognitive sciences and informatics. Particularly, classification according to cognitive styles or learning styles is a common practise in education...

Framework comprehension is a very limiting factor to take full advantage of the benefits that frameworks offer to increase quality and productivity in software development. In this paper, a reverse engineering approach t...

This paper shows the evolution of a software engineering environment (SEE) called PROSOFT to support the formal development of groupware applications. This environment, which is centered in the data-driven approach for s...

Robots have become usual collaborators in our daily life. While robotic systems grow to be more and more complex, the need to engineering their software development process grows as well. Traditional approaches that are ...

Mature Web Engineering (WE) approaches provide good resources for developing Web 2.0 applications. The state-of-the-art shows that many of these approaches have evolved for providing support to different issues during th...

This paper provides an overview of Multi-Protocol Label Switching Technology (MPLS). Distinctive issues are presented as well as Quality of Service (QoS). Traffic Engineering (TE) features are discussed. It also describe...

Ontologies can be used in Domain Oriented Software Engineering Environments (DOSEEs) to organize and describe knowledge and to support management, acquisition and sharing of knowledge regarding some domain. However, onto...

This paper describes two experiences in teaching a formal approach to software engineering at undergraduate level supported by Camila a functional programming based tool Carried on in di erent institutions each of th...

The Standardization of a development process for systems of medium complexity, entirely supported by an integrated development environment, could mean a double contribution to the industry of systems development. On the ...

This paper presents a new traffic engineering multitreemultiobjective multicast routing algorithm (M-MMA) that solves for the first time the GMM model for Dynamic Multicast Groups. Multitree traffic engineering uses seve...

A few years ago, it seemed inconceivable to think about cars able to detect open doors automatically, with a device for speech recognition; besides, it was almost unbelievable to imagine houses that close their windows i...

This paper presents semiotic engineering – a semiotic theory of HCI. The theory has the advantage to integrate back end and front end design and development perspectives into a single metacommunication process that aff...

Previous work in software product lines showed an increment of up to 10 times in productivity and product quality [SEI Prod_Line]; because of this, the software product line approach is critical for the success of a deve...

As the inherent complexity of hypermedia applications grows, the need for high-level design models and methods be omes imperative. There are several software engineering methods specially tailored for the domain of hyper...

Los repositorios institucionales son depósitos de archivos digitales de diferentes tipologías para accederlos, difundirlos y preservarlos. Este artículo tiene como propósito explicar la importancia de los repositorio...

La comunidad informática propició el advenimiento de la Ingeniería de Software luego de años de fracasos, y aún a pesar de los progresos, le falta tiempo -quizás décadas- para convertirse en una disciplina de inge...

During recent years, new software engineering paradigms like component-based software engineering and COTS-based development have emerged. Both paradigms are concerned with reuse and customisation of existing components....

Software tools processing partially common set of data should share an understanding of what these data mean. Since ontologies have been used to express formally a shared understanding of information, we argue that they ...

This paper describes two traffic engineering techniques for implementing proportional differentiated services based on Multiprotocol Label Switching constraint based routing. Both use a dynamic bandwidth allocation schem...

Component-based Development is a challenging paradigm, though Pervasive Computing Environments, as a special case of such systems, carry even more complications. Applications must be kept available for users anytime, an...

Inicialmente un grupo de desarrolladores de software enfrentaron el problema de disponer de una capa de software capaz de permitir el desarrollo ágil de aplicaciones Web, básicamente utilizando a PHP como lenguaje de t...
