The Nesting Problems are a special class of cutting and packing (C&P) problems in which a set of items with arbitrary geometry must be positioned in a surface with a non-fixed length, aiming a minimization of the require area for allocation of all given demand. It is commonly applied in industries that operate in various types of manufacturers and exporters activities (e.g., shipbuilding, clothes, and glass). In this work, we propose a parallel biased random-key genetic algorithm with multiple populations (μ-BRKGA) to the Nesting Problems using a collision-free region (CFR) concept as position method, intending at a more efficient and fastest layout compaction to get "good" solutions. The problem layout of the proposed algorithm, a solution, is represented for placement order in the surface and the corresponding orientation. As the way of to evaluate our (μ-BRKGA) algorithm, computational tests using benchmark instances were applied, discussed and compared with different existing literature methods.

At the software development cycle, it is in the requirements analysis phase that most of the problems that can compromise the delivery time and the development and maintenance costs must be identified and resolved. In general, the requirements obtained in this phase have different relationships with each other. Some of these relationships, commonly called negative interactions, make difficult or impossible the progress of some activities of the development process. The detection of interactions between requirements is an important activity that may prevent some of these problems and avoid their propagation throughout the remainder activities. Most of the existent research in this area only focuses on the requirements phase, mainly in the identification of conflict and/or inconsistency interactions. This paper presents a semi-formal event-based approach to model and identify the interactions between requirements, investigating the interactions that influence the other phases of the software development process.

The Requirement Engineering is the first and one of the most critical phases of any software development methodology. This phase is very complex because of the imprecision of the process, the communication problems and the different viewpoints of the stakeholders. Requirements defined with imprecision or ambiguity hide and/or make difficult the discovery of the different interactions that could exist between requirements. These requirements are considered interdependent, as one requirement depends on or affect others. The identification of the interactions between the requirements allows understanding and acting on the impact of these interactions in the subsequent stages of the software development process. There are several methods for requirements specification. However, most of them don't show explicitly these interactions. In this paper, we present an approach that allows the specification, identification and revealing the different interactions between requirements, using a semi-formal method based on events. The events are considered because the flows of events describe the behavior of the system, through a set of interactions between objects.
The launch of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software on the market requires careful planning, which incorporates a requirements prioritization process. Although there are numerous prioritization techniques, few sati...
