A case study on the simulation of a local area network (LAN) that has been used at Vrije Universiteit Brissel (VUB) and the University of Bern to illustrate evolution of object-oriented programs, is reported. The study is intended to illustrate modeling support for software evolution. The case consists of an initial version of the simulation program and a series of changes in the specification that require it to evolve. The evolution of the program corresponds to a series of four consecutive requirements at the level of the LAN, which must be incorporated into the simulation program.

Domain experts think and reason at a high level of abstraction when they solve problems in their domain of expertise. We present the design and motivation behind a domain specific language, called phi LOG, to enable biologists to program solutions to phylogenetic inference problems at a very high level of abstraction. The implementation infrastructure (interpreter, compiler, debugger) for the DSL is automatically obtained through a software engineering framework based on Denotational Semantics and Logic programming.
In the advent of ambient intelligence, introducing ubiquitous mobile systems and services in general and mobile code in particular, network latency becomes a critical factor, especially in wireless, low-bandwidth envi...

Autonomic computing - self-configuring, self-healing, self-optimizing applications, systems and networks - is widely believed to be a promising solution to ever-increasing system complexity and the spiraling costs of human system management as systems scale to global proportions. Most results to date, however, suggest ways to architect new software constructed from the ground up as autonomic systems, whereas in the real world organizations continue to use stovepipe legacy systems and/or build ''systems of systems'' that draw from a gamut of new and legacy components involving disparate technologies from numerous vendors. Our goal is to retrofit autonomic computing onto such systems, externally, without any need to understand or modify the code, and in many cases even when it is impossible to recompile. We present a meta-architecture implemented as active middleware infrastructure to explicitly add autonomic services via an attached feedback loop that provides continual monitoring and, as needed, reconfiguration and/or repair. Our lightweight design and separation of concerns enables easy adoption of individual components, as well as the full infrastructure, for use with a large variety of legacy, new systems, and systems of systems. We summarize several experiments spanning multiple domains.

The purpose of Generic Evolutionary Algorithms programming Library (GEA1) system is to provide researchers with an easy-to-use, widely applicable and extendable programming library which solves real-world optimization problems by means of evolutionary algorithms. It contains algorithms for various evolutionary methods, implemented genetic operators for the most common representation forms for individuals, various selection methods, and examples on how to use and expand the library. All these functions assure that GEA can be effectively applied on many problems. GraphGEA is a graphical user interface to GEA written with the GTK API. The numerous parameters of the evolutionary algorithm can be set in appropriate dialog boxes. The program also checks the correctness of the parameters and saving/restoring of parameter sets is also possible. The selected evolutionary algorithm can be executed interactively on the specified optimization problem through the graphical user interface of GraphGEA, and the results and behavior of the EA can be observed on several selected graphs and drawings. While the main purpose of GEA is solving optimization problems, that of GraphGEA is education and analysis. It can be of great help for students understanding the characteristics of evolutionary algorithms and researchers of the area can use it to analyze an EA's behavior on particular problems.

City University of Hong Kong Hong Kongn automatic visible spectrometer based on a non-collinear acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) is constructed for high-speed spectrometry. Its spectral filtering characteristics such as relationships between the radio-frequency (RF) driving frequency and the output central wavelength the output bandwidth and the central wavelength its typical spectral point spread function (PSF) and so on are studied systematically. The preliminary measurement results of AOTF spectrometer show that it is a solid-state high-speed easily controllable by computer-programming rugged and compact spectroscopic device in comparison with a conventional grating spectrometer and has the potential for widespread spectrometric applications.
