Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparing Approaches for Quality Evaluation of Software Engineering Experiments: An Empirical Study on Software Product Line ExperimentsViviane R. Furtado, Henrique Vignando, Victor França, Edson OliveiraJrThe Software Engineering (SE) research area must provide results of a certain quality for the sake of value. High quality research results may ensure experience and knowledge, which are essential for the technology to be transferred to the industry. One of the means to obtain such quality results is experimentation. Experimentation is a scientific method that aims to provide evidence … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 10 · 25 Apr 2019 · 7,747 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of An Acoustic Temperature Transducer and its Application for Heater Temperature MeasurementMohammad A.K. Alia, Tariq Al MograbiRecent developments in temperature measurement have encouraged researchers to develop low-cost, simple structure, computerized generic transducers for environmental monitoring and industrial process control. The research presents a computerized technique which allows to measure temperature according to the variation of acoustic velocity (frequency) in a closed waveguide. Signal conditioning and processing was carried out using labVIEW (G Language) VIs. In order … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,817 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordComparing SMarty and PLUS for Variability Identification and Representation at Product-Line UML Class Level: A Controlled Quasi-ExperimentAnderson S. Marcolino, Edson OliveiraJrAlthough variability management is one of the main activities of software product lines, current literature provides almost no empirical evaluations on variability management approaches based on UML. This paper aims at experimentally comparing two approaches and picks SMarty and PLUS as representative examples. Such comparison takes into account their effectiveness of expressing correctly and incorrectly variabilities in UML class diagrams. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 9 Nov 2017 · 7,455 accessesView PDF Cite
