Complexity Theory in Axiomatic Design
During the last couple of decades, the term complexity has been commonly found in use in many fields of science, sometimes as a measurable quantity with a rigorous but narrow definition and other times as merely an ad hoc label. With an emphasis on pragmatic engineering applications, this thesis investigates the complexity concept defined in axiomatic design theory to avoid vague use of the ter...
متن کاملThe Complexity in Sociological Theory: an Axiomatic Description
This article puts forth an axiomatic description of the complexity of an object of sociological investigation. The proposed axioms allow us to determine complexity within the framework of mathematical sociology such as the variational principle, which is formed relative to the state of the object of sociological investigation. On the basis of this principle we can conclude the equation of state...
متن کاملA measure of software complexity
In recounting the e6pietls-reas-ens---ereK-£-HSC-S f-Gfour tr-a-ditional problems in developing and maintaining computer software, many authorities have mentioned complexity (e.g., References 2, 8, 15). The complexity pointed to sometimes is the inherent complexity of the jobs the computer is to do; sometimes it is the complexity of the systems or programs that direct the computer to do the job...
متن کاملAn Axiomatic Theory of StateCharts
Executive Summary Statecharts provide for the detailed graphical description of real-time computing systems. Extended Real Time Logic (ERTL) provides for the axiomatic description of real-time computing systems. The StateMate tool provides powerful facilities for the construction and validation of Statecharts, using a conceptually simple graphical user interface. In this paper we develop a mapp...
متن کاملAn Axiomatic Theory of Fairness
The tradeoff between fairness and throughput has been widely observed in network analysis and protocol design. Despite many existing fairness metrics (from simple ones like Jain’s index to more complex ones like α-fair utility), the meaning of fairness is largely based on problemoriented interpretations and judgments, with no well-established framework. To tackle this challenging problem, we pr...
