The purpose of this study was to investigate the structural pattern of the effect of corporate governance mechanisms (internal organization) on audit quality considering the role of the intermediary variable of behavioural components of auditors. The statistical population of this research is independent auditors and auditors working in audit firms. A sample of 395 people was selected by simple...

This work concerns a study of the use of adaptive computational approaches as a mechanism for individual agent based modeling of adaptation in ecological systems, particularly in situations which are unsuited to conventional analytical techniques (ie. using continuous mathematics). In this context we define the term Computational Ecology to mean the software simulation or model (derived from so...

An attractive and challenging way of constructing complex computing systems is their automated synthesis from a range of behavioural specifications. In this paper, we explore one particular instance of this approach which aims at constructing a GALS (globally asynchronous locally synchronous) system from its behavioural specification given in terms of a suitable transition system. More precisel...
