Computing Platforms
Modelling plays a central role in systems engineering. The use of models can profitably replace experimentation on actual systems with incomparable... -
Abstract Machines of Systems Biology
Living cells are extremely well-organized autonomous systems, consisting of discrete interacting components. Key to understanding and modeling their... -
Fault Prediction Modeling for Software Quality Estimation: Comparing Commonly Used Techniques
High-assurance and complex mission-critical software systems are heavily dependent on reliability of their underlying software applications. An early...

Application of neural networks for automated X-ray image inspection in electronics manufacturing
Artificial neural networks have proven to be valuable tools in industrial problems, e.g. for image processing, and classification in visual... -
Real-Time and Safety-Critical Systems
A system is one in which the timing of the output is significant [195]. Such a system accepts inputs from the ‘real world’ and must respond with... -
Complexity and Adaptation in Community Information Systems: Implications for Design
Recently we have developed a framework for analyzing systems that are complex and adaptive. These properties are characteristic of community... -
How business relationship modelling supports quality assurance of business objects
Many claims have been made for the benefits of software reuse, in terms of enhanced quality as well as productivity. Widely reused objects are... -
