A visual language-based system for extraction-transformation-loading development
Data warehouse loading and refreshment is typically performed by means of complex software processes called extraction-transformation-loading ETL. In this paper, we propose a system based on a suite of visual languages for mastering several aspects of ...
Resource partitioning for Integrated Modular Avionics: comparative study of implementation alternatives
Most current generation avionics systems are based on a federated architecture, where an electronic device runs a single software module or application that collaborates with other devices through a network. This architecture makes the software ...
Drawing non-layered tidy trees in linear time
The well-known Reingold-Tilford algorithm produces tidy-layered drawings of trees: drawings where all nodes at the same depth are vertically aligned. However, when nodes have varying heights, layered drawing may use more vertical space than necessary. A ...
Making context-sensitive inclusion-based pointer analysis practical for compilers using parameterised summarisation
Because of its high precision as a flow-insensitive pointer analysis, Andersen's analysis has been deployed in some modern optimising compilers. To obtain improved precision, we describe how to add context sensitivity on top of Andersen's analysis. The ...
The use of mTags for mandatory security: a case study
mTags is an efficient mechanism that augments inter-thread messages with lightweight metadata. We introduce and discuss a case study that we have conducted in the use of mTags for realizing a kind of mandatory security. Although mTags can be implemented ...
Identifying composite crosscutting concerns through semi-supervised learning
Aspect mining improves the modularity of legacy software systems through identifying their underlying crosscutting concerns CCs. However, a realistic CC is a composite one that consists of CC seeds and relative program elements, which makes it a great ...
