چکیده

In this paper, we analyze software that we inherited from another party. We analyze its architecture and use common design principles to identify critical changes in order to improve its flexibility with respect to a set of planned extensions. We describe flexibility issues that we encountered and how they were addressed by a redesign and re-implementation. The study shows that basic and well-established design concepts can be used to guide the design and redesign of software.

Maintainability measure based on operating environment, a case study: Sungun copper mine

The life cycle cost of a system is influenced by its maintainability. Maintainability is a design parameter, whose operational conditions can affect it significantly. Hence, the effects of these operational conditions should be quantified early in the design phase. The proportional repair model (PRM), which is developed based on the proportional hazard model (PHM), can be used to analyze mainta...

RAM analysis of earth pressure balance tunnel boring machines: A case study

Earth pressure balance tunnel boring machines (EPB-TBMs) are favorably applied in urban tunneling projects. Despite their numerous advantages, considerable delays and high maintenance cost are the main disadvantages these machines suffer from. Reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) analysis is a practical technique that uses failure and repair dataset obtained over a reasonable ti...

Shift of “Certainty” in Pre- and Post-Citation Arguments: The Case of Textbooks in Applied Linguistics

Writing academic texts by novice researchers requires a framework and support by learning how to cite the works of others. However, compared to the studies on other academic writings, studying citations by considering certainty markers has received little attention. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the shifts of certainty markers (hedges and boosters) in pre- and post-citation ...
