Software testing in web services environment faces different challenges in comparison with testing in traditional software environments. Regression testing activities are triggered based on software changes or evolutions. In web services, evolution is not a choice for service clients. They have always to use the current updated version of the software. In addition test execution or invocation is expensive in web services and hence providing algorithms to optimize test case generation and execution is vital. In this environment, we proposed several approach for test cases' selection in web services' regression testing. Testing in this new environment should evolve to be included part of the service contract. Service providers should provide data or usage sessions that can help service clients reduce testing expenses through optimizing the selected and executed test cases.
In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde ein Verfahren zur Analyse von Molekülen auf Grundlage ihrer molekularen Oberfläche und lokalen Werte für physiko-chemische und topografische Eigenschaften entwickelt. Der als Kernkomponente der Analyse entwickelte Fuzzy-Controller kombiniert molekulare Eigenschaften und selektiert die für Wechselwirkungen relevanten Merkmale auf der Oberfläche. Die Ergebnisse des Fuzzy-Controllers werden für die Berechnung von 3D-Deskriptoren und für die Visualisierung der ermittelten Domänen auf der Oberfläche herangezogen. Es werden zwei Arten von Deskriptoren berechnet. Deskriptoren, welche Flächeninhalte und Zugehörigkeiten zu den spezifizierten Bindungsmerkmalen der Domänen darstellen, und Deskriptoren, welche die räumliche Anordnung der Domänen zueinander beschreiben. Die vom Fuzzy-Controller überarbeitete Oberfläche wird im VRML-Format zur Visualisierung und weiteren Bearbeitung zur Verfügung gestellt. Die berechneten Deskriptoren werden zur Ähnlichkeitsanalyse von Liganden und zur Suche von komplementären Bereichen an der Bindungsstelle einesRezeptors eingesetzt. MTX in protonierter Form und DHF, die an das Enzym DHF-Reduktase binden, und die Inhibitoren Sildenafil, Tadalafil und Vardenafil des Enzyms PDE-5A wurden unter Ähnlichkeitsaspekten analysiert. Bei der Bestimmung von komplementären Bindungsmerkmalen wird ausgehend von den Bindungsmerkmalen eines Liganden nach komplementären Bereichen in der Bindungstasche des Rezeptors gesucht. Als Anwendungsbeispiele werden die Bindungsstelle des Enzyms DHF-Reduktase aus den Komplexen mit MTX und DHF und des Enzyms PDE-5A aus den Komplexen mit Sildenafil, Vardenafil und Tadalafil betrachtet. Insgesamt haben die Anwendungsbeispiele gezeigt, dass der vorgestellte Fuzzy-Controller Bindungsmerkmale auf der molekularen Oberfläche identifiziert unddie darauf basierenden, rotations- und translationsinvarianten Deskriptoren zur Ähnlichkeitsanalyse und zur Suche von komplementären Bereichen angewendet werden können.
Traditionally traffic simulations are used to predict traffic jams, plan new roads or highways, and estimate road safety. They are also used in computer games and virtual environments. There are two general concepts of modeling traffic: macroscopic and microscopic modeling. Macroscopic traffic models take vehicle collectives into account and do not consider individual vehicles. Parameters like average velocity and density are used to model the flow of traffic. In contrast, microscopic traffic models consider each vehicle individually. Therefore, vehicle specific parameters are of importance, e.g. current velocity, desired velocity, velocity difference to the lead vehicle, individual time gap.
Approximate clone detection is the process of identifying similar process fragments in business process model collections. The tool presented in this paper can efficiently cluster approximate clones in large process model repositories. Once a repository is clustered, users can filter and browse the clusters using different filtering parameters. Our tool can also visualize clusters in the 2D space, allowing a better understanding of clusters and their member fragments. This demonstration will be useful for researchers and practitioners working on large process model repositories, where process standardization is a critical task for increasing the consistency and reducing the complexity of the repository.
This paper compares the memory allocation of two Java virtual machines, namely Oracle Java HotSpot VM 32-bit (OJVM) and Jamaica JamaicaVM (JJVM). The basic difference of the architectures in both machines is that the JamaicaVM uses fixed-size blocks for allocating objects on the heap. The basic difference of the architectures is that the JJVM uses fixed size block allocation on the heap. This means that objects have to be split into several connected blocks if they are bigger than the specified block-size. On the other hand, for small objects a full block must be allocated. The paper contains both theoretical and experimental analysis on the memory-overhead. The theoretical analysis is based on specifications of the two virtual machines. The experimental analysis is done with a modified JVMTI Agent together with the SPECjvm2008 Benchmark.
The relative contributions of radial and laminar optic flow to the perception of linear self-motion
(2012)
When illusory self-motion is induced in a stationary observer by optic flow, the perceived distance traveled is generally overestimated relative to the distance of a remembered target (Redlick, Harris, & Jenkin, 2001): subjects feel they have gone further than the simulated distance and indicate that they have arrived at a target's previously seen location too early. In this article we assess how the radial and laminar components of translational optic flow contribute to the perceived distance traveled. Subjects monocularly viewed a target presented in a virtual hallway wallpapered with stripes that periodically changed color to prevent tracking. The target was then extinguished and the visible area of the hallway shrunk to an oval region 40° (h) × 24° (v). Subjects either continued to look centrally or shifted their gaze eccentrically, thus varying the relative amounts of radial and laminar flow visible. They were then presented with visual motion compatible with moving down the hallway toward the target and pressed a button when they perceived that they had reached the target's remembered position. Data were modeled by the output of a leaky spatial integrator (Lappe, Jenkin, & Harris, 2007). The sensory gain varied systematically with viewing eccentricity while the leak constant was independent of viewing eccentricity. Results were modeled as the linear sum of separate mechanisms sensitive to radial and laminar optic flow. Results are compatible with independent channels for processing the radial and laminar flow components of optic flow that add linearly to produce large but predictable errors in perceived distance traveled.
This paper describes adaptive time frequency analysis of EEG signals, both in theory as well as in practice. A momentary frequency estimation algorithm is discussed and applied to EEG time series of test persons performing a concentration experiment. The motivation for deriving and implementing a time frequency estimator is the assumption that an emotional change implies a transient in the measured EEG time series, which again are superimposed by biological white noise as well as artifacts. It will be shown how accurately and robustly the estimator detects the transient even under such complicated conditions.

Open Source ERP-Systeme
(2012)
Mit Free and Open Source Software können die IT-Kosten in erheblichem Umfang gesenkt werden. Wegen ihres hohen Durchdringungsgrades in Unternehmen und des damit verbundenen Kostenblocks gilt dies insbesondere für Free and Open Source (FOS-) ERP-Systeme. Zwar sind die Verbreitung und die Akzeptanz von FOS-ERP-Systemen in den letzten Jahren schon stark angewachsen, durch eine verbesserte Markttransparenz lassen sich aber noch weitere Potenziale erschließen. Bestehende Marktübersichten für FOS-ERP-Systeme sind jedoch wenig umfassend. Vor diesem Hintergrund wurde ein Marktspiegel mit detaillierten Angaben zu den verschiedenen FOS-ERP-Systemen erstellt.
ERP systems are being used throughout the whole enterprise and are therefore responsible for a high percentage of IT expenses. The use of Free and Open Source ERP systems (FOS ERP systems) can help to reduce these IT costs. Though the acceptance of FOS ERP systems has increased enormously in the last years, even more entreprises would use FOS ERP systems to support their order processing, if the FOS ERP market was more transparent. Existing market surveys are less comprehensive. Therefore, a detailed market guide was developed.
In the realm of service robots recovery from faults is indispensable to foster user acceptance. Here fault is to be understood not in the sense of robot internal, rather as interaction faults while situated in and interacting with an environment (aka ex-ternal faults). We reason along the most frequent failures in typical scenarios which we observed during real-world demonstrations and competitions using our Care-O-bot III 1 robot. They take place in an apartment-like environments which is known as closed world. We suggest four different -for now adhoc -fault categories caused by disturbances, imperfect per-ception, inadequate planning or chaining of action sequences. The fault are categorized and then mapped to a handful of partly known, partly extended fault handling techniques. Among them we applied qualitative reasoning, use of simu-lation as oracle, learning for planning (aka en-hancement of plan operators) or -in future -case-based reasoning. Having laid out this frame we mainly ask open questions related to the applicability of the pre-sented approach. Amongst them: how to find new categories, how to extend them, how to as-sure disjointness, how to identify old and label new faults on the fly.
The work presented in this paper focuses on the comparison of well-known and new techniques for designing robust fault diagnosis schemes in the robot domain. The main challenge for fault diagnosis is to allow the robot to effectively cope not only with internal hardware and software faults but with external disturbances and errors from dynamic and complex environments as well.
