"... Abstract A new software suite, called Crystallography & NMR System (CNS), has been developed for macromolecular structure determination by X-ray crystallography or solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In contrast to existing structure determination programs the architecture o ..."

A Critique of Software Defect Prediction Models

by Norman E. Fenton, Martin Neil - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING , 1999
"... Many organizations want to predict the number of defects (faults) in software systems, before they are deployed, to gauge the likely delivered quality and maintenance effort. To help in this numerous software metrics and statistical models have been developed, with a correspondingly large literatur ..."

module size, is used to show the considerable problems inherent in current defect prediction approaches. Careful and considered analysis of past and new results shows that the conjecture lacks support and that some models are misleading. We recommend holistic models for software defect prediction, using

Software rejuvenation: Analysis, module and applications

by Yennun Huang, Chandra Kintala, Nick Kolettis, N. Dudley Fulton - IN PROCEEDINGS OF IEEE INTL. SYMPOSIUM ON FAULT TOLERANT COMPUTING, FTCS 25 , 1995
"... Software rejuvenation is the concept of gracefully terminating an application and immediately restarting it at a clean internal state. In a client-server type of application where the server is intended to run perpetually for providing a service to its clients, rejuvenating the server process period ..."

Protecting software code by guards

by Hoi Chang, Mikhail J. Atallah - Security and Privacy in Digital Rights Management,LNC S
"... Abstract. Protection of software code against illegitimate modifications by its users is a pressing issue to many software developers. Many software-based mechanisms for protecting program code are too weak (e.g., they have single points of failure) or too expensive to apply (e.g., they incur heavy ..."

A dynamic operating system for sensor nodes

by Chih-chieh Han, Ram Kumar, Roy Shea, Eddie Kohler, Mani Srivastava - in MobiSys , 2005
"... Sensor network nodes exhibit characteristics of both embedded systems and general-purpose systems. As an embedded system, a sensor node must use little energy and be robust to environmental conditions. As a general-purpose system, a node should provide common services that make it easy to write appl ..."

. Modules are not processes: they are scheduled cooperatively and there is no memory protection. Nevertheless, the system protects against common module bugs using techniques such as typed entry points, watchdog timers, and primitive resource garbage collection. Individual modules can be added and removed

Memoir: Practical State Continuity for Protected Modules

by Bryan Parno, Jacob R. Lorch, John R. Douceur, James Mickens, Jonathan M. Mccune
"... Abstract—To protect computation, a security architecture must safeguard not only the software that performs it but also the state on which the software operates. This requires more than just preserving state confidentiality and integrity, since, e.g., software may err if its state is rolled back to ..."

to a correct but stale version. For this reason, we present Memoir, the first system that fully ensures the continuity of a protected software module’s state. In other words, it ensures that a module’s state remains persistently and completely inviolate. A key contribution of Memoir is a technique

Design of Dynamically Reconfigurable Real-Time Software using Port-Based Objects

by David B. Stewart, Richard A. Volpe, Pradeep K. Khosla , 1993
"... a "one-of-a-kind" process, where most software is developed from scratch, even though much of the code is similar to code written for other applications. The cost of these systems can be drastically reduced and the capability of these systems improved by providing a suitable software fram ..."
