Empirical Evidence of the Consequences of Bad Smells in Software
(2022-03-08)
A “smell” is a property of software source code that indicates a deeper problem. Smells do not necessarily affect the code at the immediate point in time but are thought to cause problems during a later phase of the ...
Employing Machine Learning Techniques in Conjunction with Linguistic Scoring Mechanism to Formalize the Uncertainty Carried by Scoring Numeric Processes Driven by Probabilistic Methods
(2020-08-18)
The aim of this research is to integrate the naturalistic mechanisms inherent to domain experts’ heuristics with machine learning capabilities as a useful framework with the capacity to support several domains of the human ...
Employing Supportive Coevolution for the Automated Design and Configuration of Evolutionary Algorithm Operators and Parameters
(2021-11-17)
Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) can be highly complex structures requiring many operators and parameters to function. Since EA performance can be highly dependent on these parameters and operators, creating automatic methods ...
Energy Aware Task Scheduling on Heterogeneous Systems
(2007-12-15)
We consider the problem of scheduling directed a-cyclic task graphs (DAG) on heterogeneous distributed processor systems with the twin objectives of minimizing finish time and energy consumption. Previous scheduling ...
