Application of Protein-Protein Interaction Network Analysis in Order to Identify Cervical Cancer miRNA and mRNA Biomarkers

Cervical cancer (CC) is one of the world’s most common and severe cancers. This cancer includes two histological types: squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma (ADC). The current study aims at identifying novel potential candidate ...

EdgeAIGC: Model caching and resource allocation for edge artificial intelligence generated content

With the rapid development of generative artificial intelligence technology, the traditional cloud-based centralized model training and inference face significant limitations due to high transmission latency and costs, which restrict user-s...

Layout and Assembly Selection Algorithm for Standard Ring+Turning Ring Shield Tunnel Segments

Objective To address the challenges associated with the manual layout and point selection of S+T (standard rings+turning rings (double-sided wedges)) in shield tunnel segments, including high subjectivity, complex calculations, and heavy re...

A framework for gamification in software engineering

Software Engineering Foundations

A groundbreaking book in this field, Software Engineering Foundations: A Software Science Perspective integrates the latest research, methodologies, and their applications into a unified theoretical framework. Based on the author's 30 years...

Software Engineering: Principles and Practice

Software Engineering: Principles and Practice challenges the reader to appreciate the issues, design trade-offs and teamwork required for successful software development. This new edition has been brought fully up to date, with complete cov...

Metamodelling for software engineering

This book focuses on metamodelling as a discipline, exploring its foundations, techniques and results. It presents a comprehensive metamodel that covers process, product and quality issues under a common framework. Issues covered include: *...

Challenges in automotive software engineering

The amount of software in cars grows exponentially. Driving forces of this development are cheaper and more powerful hardware and the demand for innovations by new functions. The rapid increase of software and software based functionality b...

Value-based software engineering

Much of current software engineering practice and research is done in a value-neutral setting, in which every requirement, use case, object, and defect is treated as equally important; methods are presented and practiced as largely logical ...

Systematic Mapping Studies in Software Engineering

BACKGROUND: A software engineering systematic map is a defined method to build a classification scheme and structure a software engineering field of interest. The analysis of results focuses on frequencies of publications for categories wit...

Search-based software engineering

In the past five years there has been a dramatic increase in work on Search-Based Software Engineering (SBSE), an approach to Software Engineering (SE) in which Search-Based Optimization (SBO) algorithms are used to address problems in SE. ...

Default Detection Rate-Dependent Software Reliability Model with Imperfect Debugging

From the perspective of FDR (fault detection rate), which is an indispensable component in reliability modeling, this paper proposes two kinds of reliability models under imperfect debugging. This model is a relatively flexible and unified ...

Spreading Social Influence with both Positive and Negative Opinions in Online Networks

Social networks are important media for spreading information, ideas, and influence among individuals. Most existing research focuses on understanding the characteristics of social networks, investigating how information is spread through t...

Holistic Parameter Optimization for Software Defect Prediction

A software defect prediction (SDP) model identifies the defect-prone modules. Setting appropriate parameters in an SDP model is critical because it affects the model performance. In a recent study, parameters were automatically explored usi...

Logics of Statements in Context-Category Independent Basics

Based on a formalization of open formulas as statements in context, the paper presents a freshly new and abstract view of logics and specification formalisms. Generalizing concepts like sets of generators in Group Theory, underlying graph o...

Application of Robust Estimation for Time Synchronization and Retaining in Local Area Network

In view of the defect existed in the time synchronization of Local Area Network(LAN) using hardware and software methods,this paper introduces the principle of time synchronization in LAN and the method of robust estimation.The model of tim...

Vlad - Virtual Reality Application for Treatment of Psychosomatic Conditions: A report at final stage of software validation process

The present work aims to demonstrate that Virtual Reality (VR) can investigate several pathologies, in this case the treatment of all phenomena which interrupt the relationship between cognition and representation, such as defences in psych...

A QoS Routing Algorithm Based on Software-Defined Vehiclar Ad-Hoc Network

A Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network(VANET) is a Mobile Ad-Hoc Network(MANET) composed of mobile vehicular nodes.It does not rely on infrastructure to either establish a communication link orrealize communication. Owingto the high mobility of vehicle...

An Energy Efficient Distance-Aware Routing Algorithm with Multiple Mobile Sinks for Wireless Sensor Networks

Traffic patterns in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) usually follow a many-to-one model. Sensor nodes close to static sinks will deplete their limited energy more rapidly than other sensors, since they will have more data to forward during m...
