This paper addresses networking and traffic control problems in network systems along with the potential for introducing soft-computing applications at supervisory control level. The incentive Stackelberg strategy control concept was introduced to the networking model that comprises subsidiary systems of users and of network. A linear strategy is proposed for the elastic traffic problem, and results are demonstrated and illustrated via Kelly's (1997) example. The presented method is extended to the non-elastic traffic problem and results are also illustrated via a slightly modified Kelly example. Ways of employing combined analytical and soft-computing approaches and techniques in a hybrid framework have been investigated. A fuzzy-Petri-net supervisor is proposed to implement the strategic decision and control layer. Insofar obtained results are rather encouraging, and this research continues further towards possible implementation as well as some open theoretical issues.

Object technology is an approach that is increasingly being adopted for the development of quality software and software-intensive systems. Recent experience has demonstrated that it provides a sophisticated environment to support high quality softwareengineering practice. However, the use of object technology should not be restricted to languages but should encompass analysis, design, V&V and many such aspects belonging to the methodological dimension of the development life-cycle. Furthermore, it should also cover other issues belonging to the technological and contextual aspects.

One of the most important methods in communication system design, especially in protocol design, is the composition method. We propose a method for simultaneously composing service specifications and protocol specifications based on the LOTOS language. In this method, an asynchronous communication model is adopted which is more realistic in actual communication networks. We use the concept of the weak bisimulation equivalence to represent the correctness of composition. A software support system based on the proposed composition method is also described.

We present a method of test generation for acyclic sequential circuits with hold registers. A complete (100% fault efficiency) test sequence for an acyclic sequential circuit can be obtained by applying a combinational test generator to all the maximal time-expansion models (TEMs) of the circuit. We propose a class of acyclic sequential circuits for which the number of maximal TEMs is one, i.e, the maximum TEM exists. For a circuit in the class, test generation can be performed by using only the maximum TEM. The proposed class of sequential circuits with the maximum TEM properly includes several known classes of acyclic sequential circuits such as balanced structures and acyclic sequential circuits without hold registers for which test generation can be also performed by using a combinational test generator. Therefore, in general, the hardware overhead for partial scan based on the proposed structure is smaller than that based on balanced or acyclic sequential structure without hold registers.

As the increasing popularity and complexity of Web applications and the emergence of new Web application architecture, the design, development and maintenance of large, complex Web applications is becoming complex and difficult. One way to manage the complexity is to abstract and model them. The authors propose a method of modeling Web application architecture with UML, in which the design of the Web application is described from different viewpoints and levels of abstraction by three models: business model, navigation model and implementation model. It is aimed at facilitating the design, implementation and maintenance of large, complex Web applications and the reuse of previously gathered design experience.

Two objects o1 , o2 of an information system are said to be complementary with respectto attribute a if a( o1) = -a( 02 ), where a( o) is the set of values of attribute a assigned too. They are said to be complementary with respect to a set of attributes A if they are complementary with respect to each attribute a E A. A multi-modallogicallanguage for reasoning about complementarity relations is presented, with modalities [A] and (A) parameterised by subsets of a given set ATTR of attributes. Two complete deduction system for the language are presented: a Rasiowa-Sikorski style system using signed formulae, and an equivalent sequent calculus system in Gentzen style complete for theories.
To simplify the task of constructing wrapper/monitor for the information sources in data warehouse systems, we provide a modularized design method to reuse the code. By substituting some parts of wrapper modules, we c...

This paper describes a specification-based regression testing technique that can be applied for revalidating concurrent programs after specification changes. This kind of regression testing technique requires sequencing constraints which specify the precedence relations among synchronization events. In our method, the sequencing constraints are extracted automatically from Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) that are considered to be partial and nondeterministic specifications. We show how to identify the sequencing constraints affected by the modifications of a specification rather than creating new sequencing constraints from scratch to reduce the cost of regression testing. We also describe how to determine whether the affected sequencing constraints are satisfied by the program being tested.
