Software systems are growing quickly in needs of functionality, complexity, size and structure. Therefore, it becomes necessary to advance the ways where the software suffers changes, so it can be modified more easily to accommodate these needs. However, anticipating to the changes is not an easy task, once there are a lot of reasons why systems change. The Laws of Software Evolution describe how a system behaves throughout their successive versions regarding its decaying. Most of the experimental studies supporting these Laws are concerned with legacy systems' source code. However, we believe the Laws can also be observed and applied when dealing with other software development process phases, including evolutive maintenance. Therefore, we present a set of hypotheses to experimentally verify whether the Laws of Software Evolution can also be observed in the object-oriented software. A case study demonstrating the framework's use is also described.

Three abstract optimization problems are presented along with doubly iterative algorithms for their numerical solution. These algorithms are generalizations of particular algorithms described by Barr and Gilbert [19], [21] and Fujisawa and Yasuda [22]. The supporting theory is fully developed along with proofs of convergence. Practical aspects of computations are considered and procedures which insure rapid convergence are discussed. Two applications to discrete-time optimal control problems are described.

Precision farming is an optimized management farming scheme that seeks to link the real-time needs of crops with the nutrients to be administered. Sensing platforms that can monitor the physiological status of crops in situ are key to enabling timely and localized interventions. However, the underdevelopment of plant sensing strategies limits the potential of precision farming. In this Review, we discuss the challenges and advancements in phyto-monitoring, focusing on strategies that are applicable to a wide range of plant species and suitable for field deployment. We explore species-agnostic sensors, including optical and electrochemical sensors, whose operation is based on principles that are widely applicable to all plant species. These platforms enable real-time monitoring of the physiological state of crops by assessing key biomarkers, such as plant hormones, and metabolites such as salicylic acid and reactive oxygen species. Evaluating these systems, we conclude that an integrative sensing approach is necessary to compensate for the limitations of the individual methods and can provide a holistic view of crop health. Cost-effective species-agnostic sensors are thus needed to provide information that can be used to minimize the resource footprint of farming and meet the growing global demand.
