  • Architectural views through collapsing strategies
    Stoermer, Cristoph; O'Brien, Liam; Verhoef, Chris (IEEE Computer Society, 2004)
    Architectural views help to better understand and analyze software from particular stakeholder perspectives. Views are abstractions that are generated in an architecture reconstruction effort with collapsing strategies. ...
  • Architecture knowledge management
    Chen, Lianping (2008)
  • Architecture knowledge management: challenges, approaches, and tools
    Ali Babar, Muhammad; Gorton, Ian (IEEE Computer Society, 2007)
    Capturing the technical knowledge, contextual information, and rationale surrounding the design decisions underpinning system architectures can greatly improve the software development process. If not managed, this critical ...
  • Architecure is a social art form
    Cahill, Jeremiah (School of Architecture, University of Limerick, 2011)
    The spatial perspective of human society has become widely recognized as an influential force in shaping human behaviour and societal development. The design of our everyday spaces, which we interact directly and indirectly, ...
  • An artifact-centric framework for software development skills
    Downey, Jack; Power, Norah (Association for Computing Machinery, 2007)
    While the specific knowledge, skills and abilities needed to develop software can be determined, it is much more difficult to decide what skill set is required for any given software development role. This paper suggests ...
  • Artificial evolution approaches to address the data challenges
    Ryan, Conor; Larkin, Fiacc (University of Limerick, Department of Computer Science & Information Systems, 2010)
    This thesis is concerned with leveraging the power of evolutionary computation to find structure or models within complex datasets. We opt for a data-centric approach to this issue, paying particular (but not exclusive) ...
  • The art of juncture – transformations of Irish traditional music
    Keegan, Niall (University of Limerick, 2012)
    This thesis examines 'transformations' of Irish traditional music represented in speech, notation and writing in historical and contemporary contexts. Instances of these three modes of transformation are examined, and ...
  • Ask your Grocer for Shaws Limerick Bacon and Hams
    Unknown author (Glucksman Library, University of Limerick, )
  • Aspectboxes-controlling the visibility of aspects
    Bergel, Alexandre; Hirschfield, Robert; Clarke, Siobhán; Costanza, Pascal (Springer-Verlang, 2006)
    Aspect composition is still a hot research topic where there is no consensus on how to express where and when aspects have to be composed into a base system. In this paper we present a modular construct for aspects, called ...
  • An aspect-oriented, model-driven approach to functional hardware verification
    Linehan, Eamonn; Clarke, Siobhán (Elsevier, 2011)
    The cost of correcting errors in the design of an embedded system's hardware components can be higher than for its software components, making it important to test as early as possible. Testing hardware components before ...
  • Aspect-Oriented model-driven development for mobile context-aware computing
    Carton, Andrew; Clarke, Siobhán; Senart, Aline; Cahill, Vinny (IEEE Computer Society, 2007)
    The development of applications for pervasive computing presents a number of challenges to the software engineer. In particular, application adaptation based on context such as environmental factors, device limitations ...
  • Aspectual separation of feature dependencies for flexible feature composition
    Lee, Kwanwoo; Botterweck, Goetz; Thiel, Steffen (IEEE Computer Society, 2009)
    Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) provides effective mechanisms for improving the modularity of feature implementations. However, as features in general are not independent of each other, changes in the implementation of ...
  • Assertion-based loop invariant generation
    Janota, Mikolas (2007)
    Many automated techniques for invariant generation are based on the idea that the invariant should show that something “bad” will not happen in the analyzed program. In this article we present an algorithm for loop invariant ...
  • Assessing against IEC 80001-1
    MacMahon, Silvana Togneri; Mc Caffery, Fergal; Eagles, Sherman; Keenan, Frank; Lepmets, Marion; Renault, Alain (2013)
    Medical devices are designed and produced subject to various standards. These standards are recognized by the regulatory authorities within the region in which they are going to be marketed. Traditionally medical devices ...
  • Assessing student midwives’ clinical skills using OSCEs in an academic setting.
    Noonan, Maria; Barry, Maebh; Bradshaw, Carmel (Elsevier, 2009)
    Recent changes to midwifery education in Ireland have included the establishment of a four year BSc Midwifery (BScM) programme in September 2006 and a shortened 18 month post registration Higher Diploma in Midwifery (HDM) ...
  • Assessing the role of open source software in the European secondary software sector: a voice from industry
    Agerfalk, Par J.; Deverell, Andrea; Fitzgerald, Brian; Morgan, Lorraine (2005)
    This paper addresses the open source software (OSS) phenomenon from an industry perspective and reveals a number of complexities surrounding the role of OSS in the secondary software sector. It presents the research ...
  • Assessing the social value of community based adult education
    Power, Martin J.; Neville, Patricia; O'Dwyer, Maria (LCEN, LCAES, PAUL Partnership & Limerick Regeneration Agencies, 2012)
    This research undertook a qualitative study of the social value of community-based adult education in Limerick City. In particular, the research sought to explore the social outcomes of learning for individuals, their ...
  • Assessment of a framework for comparing software architecture analysis methods
    Ali Babar, Muhammad; Kitchenham, Barbara (2007)
    We have developed a framework, FOCSAAM, for comparing software architecture analysis methods. FOCSAAM can help architects and managers to choose a specific method to support architecture analysis process. We have been ...
  • Assessment of a framework for designing and evaluating security sensitive architecture
    Ali Babar, Muhammad (2008)
    Background: We have developed an Architectural Level Security Analysis Framework (ALSAF), which can be used to consider and address security related issues at software architecture level. Goal: Our goal was to empirically ...
  • Assimilation of agile practices in use
    Wang, Xiaofeng; Conboy, Kieran; Pikkarainen, Minna (John Wiley & Sons, 2012)
    Agile method use in information systems development (ISD) has grown dramatically in recent years. The emergence of these alternative approaches was very much industry-led at the outset, and while agile method research is ...
