Software-defined networking (SDN) has emerged as a solution to the cumbersome structures of classical computer networks. It separates control and data planes give independence devices with respect either traffic routing or network management. The two isolated communicate each other via help software modules, which are located in an SDN controller, such Floodlight, NOX, Ryu. In this study, Flood...

The growth of end-user computing and the trend toward the use of packaged software have focused greater attention on issues related to user support. A varied user population is requiring more tailored support, yet vendor-supplied software with a generic interface is increasingly being used. Four case studies illustrate ways in which organizational forms of support can enhance or overcome the li...

One of the main tasks of modern application integration projects is to allow one business unit (requestor) to use services offered by another business unit (provider). When software systems of business partners are composed, an import interface of the requestor system is connected to an export interface of the provider system. Here, the import interface specification containing the requestor’s ...

1. Introduction Software Engineering has provided the HCI community with tools and techniques for the software design and implementation of interactive systems. Although UIMS's, user interface toolkits, and architectural models improve usability in their own way, they do not explicitly address evaluation. On the other hand, HCI tools, methods, and notations are available but not incorporated in...

In recent years, to accompany the growing demand for graphical user interfaces to software applications, software providers have flooded the market with a proliferation of tools to assist the software engineer in production of such interfaces. These development tools range from libraries of pre-provided routines in a given language to large scale software development environments, which support...

We describe a software system which enables computergenerated soundscapes to be synthesised, spatialised and edited using a gestural interface. Iterative design and testing of the software interface has taken place in a walk-in, immersive, virtual-reality theatre. Sound spatialisation has been implemented for an 8-speaker array using a Vector Base Amplitude Planning algorithm. The software has ...

Software development has rapidly moved toward collaborative development models where multiple partners collaborate in creating and evolving software intensive systems or components of sophisticated ubiquitous socio-technical-ecosystems. In this paper we extend the concept of software interface to a flexible high-level interface as means for accommodating change and localizing, controlling and m...

note~ for Max consists of four objects for the Software Max/MSP which allow sequencing in floating point resolution and provide a Graphical User Interface and a Scripting Interface for generating events within a timeline. Due to the complete integration into Max/MSP it is possible to control almost every type of client like another software, audio and video or extern hardware by note~ or contro...

The specifier of a user-interface describes userperceivuble functions and information organisation in an implementation independent way. The designer is concerned with both the presentation and software structure of the user-interface. The path from specification to software design can be assisted by design patterns. In this paper we examine techniquesfor specification and the design of both th...
