The Rational Unified Process (RUP) as well as the related work embrace the importance of collaborative working teams during software development; but, user-interface designers and system analysts work in parallel or in ...

Git based social coding platforms (e.g.; GitHub, BitBucket) have been broadly adopted by many open source projects, and have became an important source of technical and social information about software development. That ...

In this paper, we propose the use of simple KML files to increase student engagement when learning file I/O. We also report on our trial study where we had one group of students learn I/O functions using conventional ...

A new way to implement nonlinear models for microwave transistors is shown. It allows conventional drain current functions and conventional equivalent circuits to enhance their capabilities in order to predict the frequency ...

Over the last few years, information technologies have promoted improvements in an unrivaled number of elds, increasing the precision of tasks, simplifying processes and even transforming work practices. In the case of ...

Knowledge transfer is a key aspect of securing the continuous improvement of learning, being the reuse and recombination of knowledge a difficult task. Hence, this process can be enriched by approaches such as graph theory, ...

Citizens can be considered as an important source of knowledge for innovating in open contexts, collaborating with initiatives for developing solutions to urban issues, in order to get improvements addressed to a collective ...

Over the years, the scientific interest towards 3D models analysis has become more popular. Problems such as classification, retrieval and matching are studied with the idea to offer robust solutions. This paper introduces ...

Agile approaches consider the software architecture as an emergent feature that can have an intended structure but could be not documented. To controlling the architectural erosion, an architectural conformance analysis ...
