Tropos: An Agent-Oriented Software Development Methodology
, 2003
"... Our goal in this paper is to introduce and motivate a methodology, called Tropos, for building agent oriented software systems. Tropos is based on two key ideas. First, the notion of agent and all related mentalistic notions (for instance goals and plans) are used in all phases of software develop ..."

Software Transactional Memory
, 1995
"... As we learn from the literature, flexibility in choosing synchronization operations greatly simplifies the task of designing highly concurrent programs. Unfortunately, existing hardware is inflexible and is at best on the level of a Load Linked/Store Conditional operation on a single word. Building ..."

on the hardware based transactional synchronization methodology of Herlihy and Moss, we offer software transactional memory (STM), a novel software method for supporting flexible transactional programming of synchronization operations. STM is non-blocking, and can be implemented on existing machines using only a
Agent-Oriented Software Methodology*
"... Abstract: In this paper, a methodology for agent-oriented software analysis and design is proposed, which starts from a system’s organizational structure and its work mode. The main tasks of analysis are to build the models for a system’s organization structure and its work mode.to capture how roles ..."

Introducing Refactoring to Heavyweight Software Methodologies
"... Refactoring is the process of changing a software system aiming at organizing the design of the source code, making the system easier to change and less error-prone, while preserving observable behavior. This concept has become popular in agile software methodologies, such as Extreme Programming (XP ..."

Applying design by contract
- IEEE Computer
, 1992
"... Reliability is even more important in object-oriented programming than elsewhere. This article shows how to reduce bugs by building software components on the basis of carefully designed contracts. 40 s object-oriented techniques steadily gain ground in the world of software development. users and p ..."

and prospective users of these techniques are clam-oring more and more loudly for a “methodology ” of object-oriented software construction- or at least for some methodological guidelines. This article presents such guidelines, whose main goal is to help improve the reliability
N Degrees of Separation: Multi-Dimensional Separation of Concerns
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING
, 1999
"... Done well, separation of concerns can provide many software engineering benefits, including reduced complexity, improved reusability, and simpler evolution. The choice of boundaries for separate concerns depends on both requirements on the system and on the kind(s) of decompositionand composition a ..."

Model-Based Clustering, Discriminant Analysis, and Density Estimation
- JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN STATISTICAL ASSOCIATION
, 2000
"... Cluster analysis is the automated search for groups of related observations in a data set. Most clustering done in practice is based largely on heuristic but intuitively reasonable procedures and most clustering methods available in commercial software are also of this type. However, there is little ..."

An Overview of Workflow Management: From Process Modeling to Workflow Automation Infrastructure
- DISTRIBUTED AND PARALLEL DATABASES

Workflow technology facilitates these by providing methodologies and software to support (i) business process modeling to capture business processes as workflow specifications, (ii) business process reengineering to optimize specified processes, and (iii
Ontologies: Principles, methods and applications
