STATICMOCK : A Mock Object Framework for Compiled Languages ijseajournal
Mock object frameworks are very useful for creating unit tests. However, purely compiled languages lack robust frameworks for mock objects. The frameworks that do exist rely on inheritance, compiler directives, or linker manipulation. Such techniques limit the applicability of the existing frameworks, especially when
dealing with legacy code.
We present a tool, StaticMock, for creating mock objects in compiled languages. This tool uses source-tosource
compilation together with Aspect Oriented Programming to deliver a unique solution that does not rely on the previous, commonly used techniques. We evaluate the compile-time and run-time overhead incurred by this tool, and we demonstrate the effectiveness of the tool by showing that it can be applied to
new and existing code
ReadyTalk wanted an automated testing solution that could be easily used by their Agile team. They implemented Silk4J, which provided lightweight and easy-to-use test automation. Silk4J allowed for early detection of defects, freeing up team members for innovation. It has helped ReadyTalk launch new features confidently and efficiently while continuing to improve reliability through more frequent testing.

This document discusses design techniques and coding standards for J2EE projects. It emphasizes the importance of object-oriented design, coding conventions, and leveraging existing solutions. Good code is extensible, readable, well-documented, testable, debuggable, reusable, and contains no duplication. The document recommends programming to interfaces instead of implementations to promote loose coupling. It also suggests favoring object composition over concrete inheritance for increased flexibility.
This document discusses the MISRA C coding standard and whether it is a "cure or curse" for programming in C. It provides an overview of the history and evolution of MISRA C since its inception in 1996. A key point made is that MISRA C aims to restrict dangerous and error-prone aspects of the C language, but it can be misused if only the headline rules are followed without reading the full standard and explanations. Static analysis is recommended to properly enforce MISRA C rules. While deviations from the standard will be needed for every project, following MISRA C principles can save significant time by reducing defects if implemented correctly.

GENERATING SOFTWARE PRODUCT LINE MODEL BY RESOLVING CODE SMELLS IN THE PRODUC...ijseajournal
The document discusses an approach for building a software product line (SPL) model by resolving code smells in the source code of existing products. It proposes using reverse engineering to analyze the source code of product variants to detect and refactor code smells. This improves the quality of the source code, allowing features to then be identified and used to generate an SPL model with common core and customizable assets. The goal is to reduce code smells when constructing an SPL using an existing set of products via the bottom-up strategy.

The team aims to inform clinical practice by evaluating how principles of implicit learning from sports can be applied to speech rehabilitation. Two studies found that analogy instructions were more effective than explicit instructions for teaching speech motor skills, and were still effective under stress. Future work includes more studies, developing international collaborations, and applying findings to clinical populations.
EAA2013 Archaeological Recording Methods - How Many Archaeologists does it t...Keith.May
This document discusses different archaeological recording methodologies and their implications for linked open data. It provides examples of recording systems from the UK, Germany, Italy, Turkey and Israel. While the systems vary in their specific terminology, they generally conceptualize common relationships like stratigraphic units, finds, and phases. The document argues these commonalities allow data from different systems to be semantically linked to enable cross-searching for broader research insights. However, challenges remain around developing shared technologies and willingness to openly share archaeological data.
The document reminds the reader to enable sounds on their mouse before proceeding, and states that a true friend is always there when needed. It then discusses receiving nostalgic emails with photos and music, but this message is intended to be different. It wishes the reader a fantastic day.

This paper is based upon practical experiences of Conceptual modelling, using CIDOC CRM, of the single context recording system at English Heritage and mapping it to other 'single context' based systems. It also presents recent work on identifying conceptual commonalities that may exist in different archaeological recording methodologies, whether 'single context recording' or otherwise, along with practical challenges based on experiences of trying to integrate, or simply search across, data from different archaeological recording systems. In addition it introduces the work to date on developing http://www.heritagedata.org/ and suggests opportunities for sharing and aligning further archaeological vocabularies using SKOS and Linked Open Data technologies.
Microsoft Office SpellCheck as an Assistive Technologygueste114ea82
Microsoft Office Spelling/Grammar Check is a feature that automatically checks spelling and grammar in Microsoft Office documents. It uses red and green underlines to indicate potential spelling and grammar errors. While it provides alternatives for incorrect words, it does not always choose the right correction, so users still need knowledge of spelling and grammar. The presentation concludes that technology cannot replace qualified teachers.

The document discusses the ONE (Open Negotiation Environment) project, which aims to create an MDA-based environment for modeling and executing business negotiations. The key aspects are:
1) The project defines a domain-specific language (DSL) for modeling negotiations using a metamodel. This DSL captures domain concepts like offers, agreements, and actions.
2) Models created with the DSL are stored in XMI files and can then be executed by a negotiation engine to run actual negotiations.
3) The DSL and tools were created using an MDA approach with transformations between metamodels, models, and runtime representations.
The document discusses MHEG (Multimedia and Hypermedia Experts Group), an ISO standard for defining multimedia presentations that can run across different hardware platforms. It describes the evolution of MHEG standards over time from MHEG-1 to MHEG-7, with each version adding new capabilities like interactivity (MHEG-3) or support for client-server applications (MHEG-5).

Why .Net is Popular Trend Among Developers?charlesjury
In the field of computer technologies, end user is not much concerned with the usage of technology. He does not have anything to do with the words like programming languages, frameworks and platforms. What he is concerned with is the premium user experience. Technology providers keep striving for providing better technologies and application developers keep their all efforts to leverage the advantage of the latest technologies. The ultimate target is the best user experience.
The document describes an MDA-based environment called ONE for modeling and executing business negotiations. It uses an MDA approach with models defined at different abstraction levels (M3-M0). A domain-specific language was defined and used to generate a modeling editor, allowing users to create negotiation models. These models are then executed in a runtime environment. The runtime has a peer-to-peer architecture and is scalable to support growing model needs from the community. MDA principles were key to allowing new negotiation models to be added without software changes.

On making standards organizations & open source communities work hand in handBenjamin Cabé
Did you know that the Eclipse Foundation is home to many open source implementations of standards from a dozen of standards defining organizations: IETF, ISO, oneM2M, OASIS, etc.
We do believe that open source is key to standards' adoption, and this presentation shares some thoughts on what makes a standard successful, and how Eclipse has proved with recent success stories that open source and open communities are a key factor.
Fourth generation techniques (4GT) allow software engineers to specify characteristics of software at a high level. Tools then automatically generate source code based on these specifications. Current 4GT environments include tools for database queries, report generation, data manipulation, screen interaction, code generation, and web site creation. 4GT begins with requirements gathering but customers may be unclear or unable to specify requirements in a way tools can understand, so design is still needed for large projects. Implementation using a 4GT leads to automatic code generation but testing and other integration activities are still required. Proponents claim 4GT reduces development time and improves productivity while opponents argue current tools are not much easier than programming languages and maintainability of large systems is unclear.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
