1SAMAT- A Tool for Software Architecture Modeling and Analysis
"... Abstract—A software architecture specification plays a critical role in software development process. SAM is a general frame-work for developing and analyzing software architecture speci-fications. SAM supports the scalability of architectural descrip-tions through hierarchical decomposition and the ..."

and the dependability analysis of architectural descriptions using a dual formalism based on Petri nets and temporal logic. In this paper, we present SAMAT (Software Architecture Modeling and Analysis Tool), a tool to support the hierarchical modeling and analyzing of software architecture specifications in SAM. SAMAT
Pin: building customized program analysis tools with dynamic instrumentation
- IN PLDI ’05: PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2005 ACM SIGPLAN CONFERENCE ON PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION
, 2005
"... Robust and powerful software instrumentation tools are essential for program analysis tasks such as profiling, performance evaluation, and bug detection. To meet this need, we have developed a new instrumentation system called Pin. Our goals are to provide easy-to-use, portable, transparent, and eff ..."

ANALYSIS OF WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS FOR HABITAT MONITORING
, 2004
"... We provide an in-depth study of applying wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to real-world habitat monitoring. A set of system design requirements were developed that cover the hardware design of the nodes, the sensor network software, protective enclosures, and system architecture to meet the require ..."

Bandera: Extracting Finite-state Models from Java Source Code
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 22ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING
, 2000
"... Finite-state verification techniques, such as model checking, have shown promise as a cost-effective means for finding defects in hardware designs. To date, the application of these techniques to software has been hindered by several obstacles. Chief among these is the problem of constructing a fini ..."

Power Analysis of Embedded Software: A First Step towards Software Power Minimization
, 1994
"... Embedded computer systems are characterized by the presence ofadedicated processor and the software that runs on it. Power constraints are increasingly becoming the critical component of the design speci cation of these systems. At present, however, power analysis tools can only be applied at the lo ..."

Automatically validating temporal safety properties of interfaces
, 2001
"... We present a process for validating temporal safety properties of software that uses a well-defined interface. The process requires only that the user state the property of interest. It then automatically creates abstractions of C code using iterative refinement, based on the given property. The pro ..."

Toward reference models for requirements traceability
- IEEE Trans. Softw. Eng. 2001
"... Requirements traceability is intended to ensure continued alignment between stakeholder requirements and system evolution. To be useful, traces must be organized according to some modeling framework. Indeed, several such frameworks have been proposed, mostly based on theoretical considerations or an ..."

Focus groups and interviews conducted in 26 major software development organizations demonstrate a wide range of traceability practices with distinct low-end and high-end users of traceability. From these observations
