Abstract In Software Defined Networking, applications often need to communicate with network controllers query or modify the current state of network. However, there is currently no standard northbound interface that allows this communication occur. Instead, each Networking implementation defines its own interface, meaning typically be modified allow them work different controllers. paper we pr...

Software modules are presented that implement the indexing of scientific articles, subject-oriented search on them, a user interface, as well software interface for third-party consumers. A detailed description process setting up full-text to level is given.

AskJef is a prototype AI system that helps software engineers in designing human-machine interfaces. It provides a memory of interface design examples, primitive domain objects, and design principles, guidelines, errors and stories. The design examples are represented graphically and decomposed temporally. The different types of knowledge are cross-indexed to enable the designer to navigate thr...

This paper describes the vision of Concern-Driven Development (CDD), a novel software development paradigm that extends model-driven engineering with best practices from reuse, advanced modularization techniques, goal modelling, and software product line research. CDD advocates the use of a three-part interface to describe units of reuse, i.e., concerns. The variation interface describes requir...

This deliverable reports on the ongoing activities in Workpackage 7, the specification and design of a generic proprioceptive sensor-actuator interface. The design of this API is intended to be independent of a specific hardware platform and be applicable to compliant robots. To approach this goal, this deliverable reports on an extensive analysis, documentation and monitoring of frameworks, li...

The multimedia capabilities in battery powered mobile communication devices should be provided at high energy efficiency. Consequently, the hardware is usually implemented using low-power technology and the hardware architectures are optimized for embedded computing. Software architectures, on the other hand, are not embedded system specific, but closely resemble each other for any computing de...

The rate of emerging technological innovations has exceeded the rate at which individuals can assimilate new technologies into their lives. Yet, businesses continue a breakneck pace for the development of new technologies resulting in the creation of products based on a particular type of technology, i.e., technocentric product development, rather than on its utility and usability, i.e., user c...

This paper deals with the adaptability in the context of service oriented systems. Static adaptability means simply the modification of the system constituents in response to new needs or situations. Whereas dynamic adaptability requires that modifications must be done at run-time without stopping the system and without affecting its consistency and integrity which is a very complicated task. A...

A User Interface Description Language (UIDL) is a formal language used in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) in order to describe a particular user interface independently of any implementation. Considerable research effort has been devoted to defining various meta-models in order to define rigorously the semantics of a UIDL. These meta-models adhere to the principle of separation of concerns. An...
