History-based Approach for Detecting Modularity Defects in Aspect Oriented Software
The evolution of Aspect oriented (AO) software would degrade and modify its structure and its modularity. In this scenario, one of the main problems is to evaluate the modularity of the system, is the evolved AO software still has a good modularity or not? Unfortunately, this research area is not explored yet. This paper presents a history-based approach that detects modularity defects in evolv...
متن کاملA cohesion measure for C in the context of an AOP paradigm
Cohesion measures the relative functional strength of a module and impacts the internal attribute of a function such as modularity. Modularity has become an accepted approach in every engineering discipline. The concept of modular design has considerably reduced the complexity of software design. It represents the strength of bond between the internal elements of the modules. To achieve effecti...
متن کاملModular assembled space telescope
We present a new approach to building a modular segmented space telescope that greatly leverages the heritage of the Hubble Space Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope. The modular design in which mirror segments are assembled into identical panels allows for economies of scale and for efficient space assembly that make a 20-m aperture approach cost effective. This assembly approach can ...
متن کاملExploiting data flow ports for coordination of concurrent components
Software engineering and best practices in robotics promote modularity and composability in the attempt to reduce development time and improve maintainability of software. This, however, leads to an increased complexity of the system and in the effort required to properly coordinate the interaction between components. This short article proposes a mechanism for coordination of components in dis...
متن کاملA formal validation approach for holonic control system specifications
The holonic manufacturing paradigm allows a new approach to the emergent requirements faced by the manufacturing world, through the concepts of modularity, decentralisation, autonomy, re-use of control software components. The formal modelling and validation of the structural and behavioural specifications of holonic control systems assumes a critical role. This paper discusses the formal valid...
