Declarative layout constraints for testing web applications

Declarative Policies for Describing Web Service Capabilities and Constraints

Though the description of capabilities and constraints for web services is an important problem, we believe that is it part of a much larger problem : controlling the behavior of autonomous entities in open, dynamic environments. This problem deals with not only with the specification of attributes (i.e. privacy restrictions, access control rules, communication requirements) that will enable in...

Migrating Web Applications through Declarative Models

A Declarative Formalism for Specifying Graphical Layout

This paper describes a new approach to specifying graphical layouts of arbitrary objects, which is based on a TEXlike notation. Our simplest scheme offers specifications similar to TEX’s box-and-glue metaphor. Size and position of boxes and glue can be specified by constraints. Advantages of this TEX-like formalism are its expressiveness, user-predictable layouts, and efficient implementation s...

Design and Evaluation of a Method for Partitioning and Offloading Web-based Applications in Mobile Systems with Bandwidth Constraints

Computation offloading is known to be among the effective solutions of running heavy applications on smart mobile devices. However, irregular changes of a mobile data rate have direct impacts on code partitioning when offloading is in progress. It is believed that once a rate-adaptive partitioning performed, the replication of such substantial processes due to bandwidth fluctuation can be avoid...

Mobile Constraints for Semantic Web Applications

We present a framework for semantic web applications based on constraint interchange and processing. At the core of the framework is a well-established semantic data model (P jFDM) with an associated expressive constraint language (Colan). To allow data instances to be transported across a network, we map our data model to the RDF Schema specification. To allow constraints to be transported, we...
