Temporal testers can be viewed as (non-deterministic) transducers that, at any point, output a boolean value which is 1 iff the corresponding temporal formula holds starting at the current position....
متن کاملOn the Relative Merits of Software Reuse
Using process simulation and AI search methods, we compare software reuse against other possible changes to a project. such as reducing functionality or improving the skills of the programmer population. In one case, two generations of reuse were as good or better than any other project change (but a third and fourth generation of reuse was not useful). In another case, applying reuse to a proj...
