Many software systems’ usability suffers from their complexity, usually caused by the market-driven trend to bundle a huge amount of features, which are supposed to increase the product’s attractiveness. This attempt, however, more often than not leads to software with poor usability characteristics, therefore requiring an extensive amount of initial effort for the users to become familiar with...

One reason for the relatively small number of real-world applications of simulation in software engineering is the existing lack of guidance in creating and formulating the related models and in the isolated usage of associated techniques. In order to support both strategic and project management in software organisations, a methodology for Integrated Measurement, Modelling, and Simulation (IMM...

Research in experimental philosophy has increasingly been turning to corpus methods produce evidence for empirical claims, as they open up new possibilities testing linguistic claims or studying concepts across time and culture. The present article reviews the quasi-experimental studies that have done using textual data from corpora philosophy, with an eye modeling design enable statistical inf...

Basic physical and mechanical properties of heatcover composition material that is used for making protective screens are experimentally investigated. For this purpose on the example flowed plastic STEF executed (with use traditional charts) research at small (less than 1 m/s) high (more 3 rate-of-change ladening. At speeds ladening durability was investigated superficial deformation, tension, ...
