E-government and e-democracy constitute a central theme in information society policy at all levels: local, regional, national, European and even globally. To this direction, a variety of efforts have been made, and many systems have been developed. This paper proposes a methodology for designing and implementing web-based services that can support e-democracy practices. Furthermore, the paper ...

This paper presents a methodology and tool to support test selection from regression test suites based on change analysis in object-oriented designs. We assume that designs are represented using the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and we propose a formal mapping between design changes and a classification of regression test cases into three categories: Reusable, Retestable, and Obsolete. We pro...

This paper presents a UML Profile for Web applications. It is a UML extension based on the general extension mechanisms provided by the UML that defines specific stereotypes to model the navigational and presentational aspects of Web applications. This profile is part of a methodology for the analysis and design of Web applications. This methodology performs separate steps for conceptual, navig...

This paper presents a methodology and tool to support test selection from regression test suites based on change analysis in object-oriented designs. We assume that designs are represented using the Unified Modeling Language (UML) 2.0 and we propose a formal mapping between design changes and a classification of regression test cases into three categories: Reusable, Retestable, and Obsolete. We...

This paper discusses a variational methodology, which involves locally modeling of data from noisy samples, combined with global model parameter regularization. We show that this methodology encompasses many previously proposed algorithms, from the celebrated moving least squares methods to the globally optimal over-parametrization methods recently published for smoothing and optic flow estimat...

The paper is dealing with new object-oriented concept of the mechatronics modelling methodology, focusing to the early design phase. The idea is based on the artificial intelligent methods, particularly genetics algorithms. Genetic algorithms are used to calculate different solution for given problem. The engineering problem is defined by Unified Modelling Language. The aim of the developed met...

This paper presents a methodology to automate natural language requirements analysis and class model generation based on the Rational Unified Process (RUP). Use-case language schemas are proposed to reduce complexity and vagueness of natural language. Some rules are identified and used to automate class model generation from use-case specifications. A CASE tool named Use-Case driven Development...

Context-aware systems demand a customized development methodology because they have their own features such as ambiguous system scope, context modeling, and implementing context-dependent services. Furthermore, it has been known that these systems are more complex than traditional systems. In this paper, we meet this challenge by extending the unified process (UP), and add three workflows: cont...

This paper proposes an iterative methodology for real-time robust mosaic topology inference. It tackles the problem of optimal feature selection (optimal sampling) for global estimation of image transformations. This is called IGLOS: iterative global optimal sampling. IGLOS is a unified framework for robust global image registration (optimum feature selection and model computation are considere...
