The future of model checking lies in parallel and distributed computing, but parallel graph search algorithms tailored to directed model checking remains an underdeveloped area of research. In this work, we examine the application of parallel Monte ...

Semantic Web enabled applications are becoming popular due to the presence of their machine comprehensible description, which makes them easily sharable across machines. If such applications are deployed as services to the user through the Cloud, they ...

Component Based Software Engineering (CBSE) constructs a quality software system by reusing existing components. For the construction of high-quality software system, reusability plays an important role. Software component should be designed and ...

Software Engineering (SE) is a new field compared to other sciences. The term Software Engineering first appeared in late 1950s. SE from its beginning has been continuously in the process of evolution. New approaches, methods, tools and techniques are ...

Software testing is an important and expensive phase of the software development life cycle. Over the past few decades, there has been an ongoing research to automate the process of software testing but the attempts have been constrained by the size and ...

Despite insistent and breathtaking advances in computing, we continue to be humbled by the variety and adaptability of the natural world around us. Bio-inspired optimization is a term that covers a wide variety of computational approaches that are based ...

Robot soccer is a multidisciplinary research field of growing academic interest. Scientific competitions worldwide have driven major technological advances in the field, since research institutes and universities often enroll their robotic teams and ...

Service orientation promotes an agile development paradigm for rapid application development and presents evolutionary challenges to adapt to frequent environmental changes. To maintain effective service-based application operations, this research ...

Reputation systems aim to reduce the risk of loss due to untrustworthy participants by providing a mechanism for establishing trustworthiness between mutually unknown online entities in an information asymmetric e-market. These systems encourage honest ...
