Learning from AI : new trends in database technology
Recently some researchers in the areas of database data modelling and knowledge representations in artificial intelligence have recognized that they share many common goals. In this survey paper we show the relationship between database and artificial intelligence research. We show that there has been a tendency for data models to incorporate more modelling techniques developed for knowledge representations in artificial intelligence as the desire to incorporate more application oriented semantics, user friendliness, and flexibility has increased. Increasing the semantics of the representation is the key to capturing the "reality" of the database environment, increasing user friendliness, and facilitating the support of multiple, possibly conflicting, user views of the information contained in a database
Analysis of Software Binaries for Reengineering-Driven Product Line Architecture\^aAn Industrial Case Study
This paper describes a method for the recovering of software architectures
from a set of similar (but unrelated) software products in binary form. One
intention is to drive refactoring into software product lines and combine
architecture recovery with run time binary analysis and existing clustering
methods. Using our runtime binary analysis, we create graphs that capture the
dependencies between different software parts. These are clustered into smaller
component graphs, that group software parts with high interactions into larger
entities. The component graphs serve as a basis for further software product
line work. In this paper, we concentrate on the analysis part of the method and
the graph clustering. We apply the graph clustering method to a real
application in the context of automation / robot configuration software tools.Comment: In Proceedings FMSPLE 2015, arXiv:1504.0301
Early aspects: aspect-oriented requirements engineering and architecture design
This paper reports on the third Early Aspects: Aspect-Oriented Requirements Engineering and Architecture Design Workshop, which has been held in Lancaster, UK, on March 21, 2004. The workshop included a presentation session and working sessions in which the particular topics on early aspects were discussed. The primary goal of the workshop was to focus on challenges to defining methodical software development processes for aspects from early on in the software life cycle and explore the potential of proposed methods and techniques to scale up to industrial applications
A New Life for SQL SELECT Statement
An important percent from information systems use databases and in the majority of cases for developing such systems are used object oriented programming languages. From this point of view a key aspect is represented by the database querying features. The authors has observed a major gap between querying features of persistence mechanisms and the requirements for developing true object oriented software applications. Consequently, authors propose a new syntax for SQL SELECT statement, syntax that will allow to client applications to retrieve objects graphs.object-oriented database, query, objects graph, SQL, syntax.
