Process mapping (or process placement) is a useful algorithmic technique to optimize the way applications are launched and executed onto parallel machine. By taking into account topology of machine affinity between processes, helps reducing communication time whole application. Here, we present TopoMatch, generic versatile library algorithm address placement problem. We describe its features ch...

Recently, many organizations are investing a great amount to revamp their business policies in order to comply with the new regulations related to Sarbanes-Oxley. For organizations with large-scale business processes, maintaining those processes to meet the changing policies is a non-trivial problem. In this paper, we present an innovative process mapping methodology named Policy-Driven Process...

Software process assessments have been used to verify the conformance with quality reference models or standards, usually in a context of software process improvement programs. Most of these assessments are concerned with just one specific model or standard. However, organizations could be interested in more than one model, being necessary to offer an integrated assessment that allows evaluate ...

In this work we use the Noor iteration process for total asymptotically nonexpansive mapping to establish the strong and $Delta$-convergence theorems in the framework of CAT(0) spaces. By doing this, some of the results existing in the current literature  generalize, unify and extend.
