The Web Service Modeling Framework WSMF

by D. Fensel, C. Bussler, Y. Ding, B. Omelayenko - ELECTRONIC COMMERCE RESEARCH AND APPLICATIONS , 2001
"... Web Services will transform the web from a collection of information into a distributed device of computation. In order to employ their full potential, appropriate description means for web services need to be developed. For this purpose we define a fullfledged Web Service Modeling Framework (WSMF ..."

WinBUGS -- a Bayesian modelling framework: concepts, structure, and extensibility

by David J. Lunn, Andrew Thomas, Nicky Best, David Spiegelhalter - STATISTICS AND COMPUTING , 2000
"... WinBUGS is a fully extensible modular framework for constructing and analysing Bayesian full probability models. Models may be specified either textually via the BUGS language or pictorially using a graphical interface called DoodleBUGS. WinBUGS processes the model specification and constructs an ob ..."

Centering: A Framework for Modeling the Local Coherence Of Discourse

by Barbara J. Grosz, Scott Weinstein, Aravind K. Joshi - Computational Linguistics , 1995
"... This paper concerns relationships among focus of attention, choice of referring expression, and perceived coherence of utterances within a discourse segment. It presents a framework and initial theory of centering intended to model the local component of attentional state. The paper examines intera ..."

A Framework for Dynamic Graph Drawing

by Robert F. Cohen, G. Di Battista, R. Tamassia, Ioannis G. Tollis - CONGRESSUS NUMERANTIUM , 1992
"... Drawing graphs is an important problem that combines flavors of computational geometry and graph theory. Applications can be found in a variety of areas including circuit layout, network management, software engineering, and graphics. The main contributions of this paper can be summarized as follows ..."
Abstract - Cited by 628 (44 self) - Add to MetaCart
as follows: ffl We devise a model for dynamic graph algorithms, based on performing queries and updates on an implicit representation of the drawing, and we show its applications. ffl We present several efficient dynamic drawing algorithms for trees, series-parallel digraphs, planar st-digraphs, and planar

Refactoring Object-Oriented Frameworks

by William F. Opdyke , 1992
"... This thesis defines a set of program restructuring operations (refactorings) that support the design, evolution and reuse of object-oriented application frameworks. The focus of the thesis is on automating the refactorings in a way that preserves the behavior of a program. The refactorings are defin ..."

Ptolemy: A Framework for Simulating and Prototyping Heterogeneous Systems

by Joseph Buck, Soonhoi Ha, Edward A. Lee, David G. Messerschmitt , 1992
"... Ptolemy is an environment for simulation and prototyping of heterogeneous systems. It uses modern object-oriented software technology (C++) to model each subsystem in a natural and efficient manner, and to integrate these subsystems into a whole. Ptolemy encompasses practically all aspects of design ..."

PVM: A Framework for Parallel Distributed Computing

by V. S. Sunderam - Concurrency: Practice and Experience , 1990
"... The PVM system is a programming environment for the development and execution of large concurrent or parallel applications that consist of many interacting, but relatively independent, components. It is intended to operate on a collection of heterogeneous computing elements interconnected by one or ..."

of various types of algorithms (and their interactions), while the underlying infrastructure permits the execution of applications on a virtual computing environment that supports multiple parallel computation models. PVM contains facilities for concurrent, sequential, or conditional execution of application

A Reliable Multicast Framework for Light-weight Sessions and Application Level Framing

A classification and comparison framework for software architecture description languages

by Nenad Medvidovic, Richard N. Taylor - IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering , 2000
"... Software architectures shift the focus of developers from lines-of-code to coarser-grained architectural elements and their overall interconnection structure. Architecture description languages (ADLs) have been proposed as modeling notations to support architecture-based development. There is, howev ..."

other modeling notations. The framework is used to classify and compare several existing ADLs, enabling us in the process to identify key properties of ADLs. The comparison highlights areas where existing ADLs provide extensive support and those in which they are deficient, suggesting a research agenda
