  • Tabular expression-based testing strategies: a comparison
    Feng, Xin; Parnas, David Lorge (IEEE Computer Society, 2007)
    Tabular expressions were proposed as a documentation tool that can be used to document software precisely and unambiguously. This paper explores the applications of four testing strategies in tabular expression-based ...
  • Tailored adsorption of enzymes onto mesoporous silicates
    Gaffney, Darragh (University of Limerick, 2010)
    The objective of this research is to synthesise mesoporous silicates, incorporate metal complexes on to the surface of the silicates post synthesis and utilise these materials for the immobilisation of histidine-tagged ...
  • Tailored adsorption of enzymes onto mesoporous silicates.
    O'Neill, Sarah (University of Limerick, 2011)
    Enzymes often display high regio- and chemoselectivity and therefore are of great interest for industrial processes. However, in these processes, they can show low stability and are not reusable. Immobilisation can ...
  • Tailoring extreme programming for legacy systems: lessons learned
    McAnallen, Martin; Coleman, Gerry (EuroSPI, 2005)
    Updating and maintaining legacy systems creates significant challenges for software developers. Modifying legacy applications can be a time-consuming process which is fraught with architectural and code minefields. In many ...
  • Tailoring software process capability/maturity models for telemedicine systems
    Gresse von Wangenheim, Christiane; von Wangenheim, Aldo; Hauck, Jean Carlo R.; Mc Caffery, Fergal; Buglione, Luigi (2012)
    Developing high-quality asynchronous store-and-forward telemedicine systems (ASFTSs) remains a challenge. However, there is no accepted understanding as to what are the important quality characteristics for this type of ...
  • Taming EMF and GMF using model transformation
    Kolovos, Dimitrios S.; Rose, Louis M.; Abid, Saad bin; Paige, Richard F.; Polack, Fiona A.C.; Botterweck, Goetz (Springer-Verlag, 2010)
    EMF and GMF are powerful frameworks for implementing tool support for modelling languages in Eclipse. However, with power comes complexity; implementing a graphical editor for a modelling language using EMF and GMF requires ...
  • Taxonomy-driven adaptation of multi-layer applications using templates
    Popescu, Razvan; Staikopoulos, Athanasios; Liu, Peng; Brogi, Antonio; Clarke, Siobhán (IEEE Computer Society, 2010)
    Current adaptation approaches mainly work in isolation and cannot be easily integrated to tackle complex adaptation scenarios. The few existing cross-layer adaptation techniques are somewhat inflexible because the adaptation ...
  • Teaching three quality assurance techniques in tandem – lessons learned
    Kutay, Cat; Ali Babar, Muhammad (IEEE Computer Society, 2005)
    This paper presents our experiences gained in teaching software quality to undergraduate computer science and engineering students at The University of New South Wales. We argue that increasing demand of high quality ...
  • Template-based adaptation of semantic web services with model-driven engineering
    Cliffe, Owen; Padget, Julian; Clarke, Siobhán; Popescu, Razvan; Staikopoulos, Athanasios (IEEE Computer Society, 2010)
    Service-oriented enterprise systems, which tend to be heterogeneous, loosely coupled, long-lived, and continuously running, have to cope with frequent changes to their requirements and the environment. In order to address ...
  • A template-driven approach for maintainable service-oriented information systems integration
    Pahl, Claus; Zhu, Yaoling; Gacitua-Decar, Veronica (World Scientific Publishing Company, 2009)
    Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is currently the predominant software integration framework. Web services provide the predominant platform for SOA. SOA as an integration architecture solution supports a range of ...
  • Ten strategies for successful distributed development
    Lings, Brian; Lundell, Bjorn; Agerfalk, Par J.; Fitzgerald, Brian (2006)
    This paper presents an overview of the field of distributed development of software systems and applications (DD). Based on an analysis of the published literature, including its use in different industrial contexts, we ...
  • Testing FPGA based digital system using XILINX ChipScopeTM logic analyzer
    Arshak, Khalil; Jafer, Essa; Ibala, Christian Serge (IEEE Computer Society, 2006)
    This paper presents the use of Xilinx ChipScope Pro integrated logic analyzer for Field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) as a board- and system-level diagnostic tool. FPGA designs have become increasingly dense and complex. ...
  • TG-Pro: a SAT-based ATPG system, system description
    Chen, Huan; Marques-Silva, Joao (IOS Press, 2012)
    Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG) is arguably one of the practical applications that motivated the development of modern Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) solvers in the mid 90s. Despite the interest of using SAT in ...
  • Theoretical calculations of the carrier induced refractive index change in tensile-strained InGaAsP for use in 1550 nm semiconductor optical amplifiers
    Connelly, Michael J. (American Institute of Physics, 2008)
    Nonlinear polarization rotation (NPR) in semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) has applications in all-optical signal processing. Modeling NPR in a SOA requires knowledge of the carrier density induced refractive index ...
  • Thermally induced flows and ventilation within an aircraft wing leading edge compartment
    Moore, Daithí (University of Limerick, 2012)
    Modern day airliners are subjected to a wide range of environmental conditions when operational across the globe. In order to ensure reliable aircraft performance and avoid thermal failure of heat sensitive components, ...
  • Thick-film permanent magnets by membrane electrodeposition
    Rhen, Fernando M.F.; Backen, E.; Coey, John Michael David (American Institute of Physics, 2005)
    Thick films of nearly equiatomic Co–Pt produced by electrodeposition into nanoporous membranes exhibit an isotropic magnetic phase with square hysteresis loops (Mr/Ms=0.95) and coercivity of up to 1.3 T. The initial ...
  • THORR: a focus + context method for visualising large software systems
    McCarthy, Eoin; Exton, Chris (Association for Computing Machinery, 2004)
    Many attempts have been made to construct tools that aid a programmers understand- ing of source code and system structure. Syntactic highlighting and tabbed interfaces can only be useful to a degree; greater steps need ...
  • Thrashing, tolerating and compromising in software development
    Lopez, Tamara; Petre, Marian; Nuseibeh, Bashar (Psychology of Programming Interest Group (PPIG), 2012)
    Software engineering research into error commonly examines how developers pass judgement: to isolate faults, establish their causes and remove them. By contrast this research examines how developers experience and learn ...
  • Time-bounded adaptation for automotive system software
    Fritsch, Serena; Senart, Aline; Schmidt, Douglas C.; Clarke, Siobhán (IEEE Computer Society, 2008)
