As software evolves, analysis and design models should be modified, correspondingly. In this scenario, one of the main problems is to detect which elements should be changed due to a given change. This paper presents an approach that applies data mining over a versioned UML repository in order to detect change patterns among model elements at different abstraction levels. These patterns are presented to the software engineer together with contextual information obtained from a change control system, so he can decide the software evolution task at hand.

Broadband wireless access (BWA) systems offer a solution for broadband access and high data rate transmission of multimedia services with distinct quality-of-service (QoS) requirements through a wireless medium, IEEE 802.16 standard specifies the PHY and MAC layers for BWA systems. However, in spite of including the possibility for QoS support, the standard does not define how to schedule different types of traffic. This article propose a new MAC protocol for BWA systems that incorporates a traffic scheduling mechanism based on messages and/or stations priorities. An analytical model to evaluate the performance of the proposed protocol is also developed and results obtained for the messages waiting times of different traffic classes are presented.
In recent years, there has been growing interest in Location Based Service (LBS). However, the existing LBS has some limitations in the management of dynamic location-dependent contents and interoperability between th...

With the increase in adoption of remote work groups and teams working in non-collocated environments, several opportunities for interaction have been lost. Contact with colleagues and discovery of opportunities, previously easy due to physical proximity, is made harder with distance. In this paper, we describe an agent-based framework to assist users in finding opportunities for interaction that may have been overlooked.
