Managing Information Quality in e-Science: A Case Study in Proteomics
We describe a new approach to managing information quality (IQ) in an e-Science context, by allowing scientists to define...
Tool Support and Specification Quality: Experimental Validation of an RE-Tool Evaluation Framework
Automated support for the requirements engineering (RE) process is a recognised research area. However, the practice still relies on...
Improving Object-Oriented Micro Architectural Design Through Knowledge Systematization
Designers have accumulated much knowledge referring to OO systems design and construction, but this large body of knowledge is...
DDEMAS: A Domain Design Technique for Multi-agent Domain Engineering
Multi-agent Domain Engineering is a process for the construction of domain-specific agent-oriented reusable software artifacts, like domain models representing...
3D Scene Modeling for Activity Detection
Current computer vision algorithms can process video sequences and perform key low-level functions, such as motion detection, motion tracking,...
An Agent-Oriented Meta-model for Enterprise Modelling
This paper proposes an agent-oriented meta-model that provides rigorous concepts for conducting enterprise modelling. The aim is to allow...
SAMATS – Edge Highlighting and Intersection Rating Explained
The creation of detailed 3D buildings models, and to a greater extent the creation of entire city models, has...
An Approach to Broaden the Semantic Coverage of ACL Speech Acts
Current speech-act based ACLs specify domain-independent information about communication and relegate domain-dependent information to an unspecified content language. This...
Normative Pragmatics for Agent Communication Languages
The ability to communicate is one of the crucial properties of agents. In this paper a normative approach to...
Experimental Comparison of Rational Choice Theory, Norm and Rights Based Multi Agent Systems
As utility calculus cannot account for an important part of agents’ behaviour in Multi-Agent Systems, researchers have progressively adopted...
