The world of software analysis, design and development has dramatically changed, owing to the availability of novel patterns and architectures derived from the Internet experience. In particular, the Jazz framework joined to the Eclipse Integrated Development Environment enables programmers working in a collaborative environment, by means of cooperation strategies. This gave birth to the idea of launching an experimental project for the teaching of softwareengineering disciplines in a collaborative environment. To this aim, students from different Universities are encouraged to conduct software development projects together, exploring new opportunities for intra-university collaboration, and promoting the sharing of knowledge and expertise gained during the projects. This paper reports on the state of the art of the OTRE project. In more details, OTRE stands for On The Road to Eclipse, and its ambition is developing a full featured software environment for managing the annual conference of the Italian Eclipse Community. The vision, management, achievements and future development of the project will be addressed in this work.

Population-based incremental learning (PBIL) has been recently applied to a range of optimization problems in controller designs with promising results. It combines aspects of genetic algorithm with competitive learning. The learning rate in the standard PBIL is generally fixed which makes it difficult for the algorithm to explore the search space effectively. In this paper, the standard PBIL is improved by using a combination of adaptive and fixed learning rate that varies according to the generation. The adaptive-fixed (AF) algorithm can adjust the learning rate automatically according to the degree of evolution of the search. The objective of the power system stabilizer (PSS) design is to achieve adequate stability over a wide range of power system operating conditions. The proposed controller is compared with conventional PBIL with fixed learning rate (PBIL) and tested under various operating conditions. Simulation results show that the AFPBIL based PSS provides a more efficient search capability and gives a better damping and adequate dynamic performance of the system than the conventional PBIL based PSS.
Existing congestion control mechanisms in interconnects can be divided into two general approaches. One is to throttle traffic injection at the sources that contribute to congestion, and the other is to isolate the co...
