Supply chains for various goods span across multiple nations. Often, lower developed countries are involved in which no adequate background institutions have been established. Consequently, sustainable behavior of multinational corporations is important. To make companies’ performance...

Computer games have become an influential socio-economic phenomenon. Millions of people play online games regularly. At the same time, game vendors' revenues are increasing. As a new emergence, virtual (i.e. in-game) goods are traded for real money. However, not much research has been conducted...

Swarm intelligence (SI) algorithms are handy tools for solving complex optimization problems. When problems grow in size and complexity, an increase in population or number of iterations might be required in order to achieve a good solution. These adjustments also impact the execution time. This...

We present a technique for checking the validity of Java assertions using an arbitrary automated test-case generator. Our framework transforms the program by introducing code that detects whether the assertion conditions are met by every direct and indirect method call within a certain depth...

Die Arbeit thematisiert den datenparallelen Bestandteil der Münster Skelettbibliothek Muesli und beschreibt neben einer Reihe implementierter Erweiterungen auch mit Muesli parallelisierte Anwendungen. Eine der wichtigsten Neuerungen ist die Unterstützung von Mehrkernprozessoren durch die...

Das Debugging ist ein komplexer und arbeitsintensiver Prozess in der Softwareentwicklung. Für das Debugging von Java-Programmen werden bis heute vor allem sogenannte Trace-Debugger verwendet. Diese unterstützen die Fehlersuche, indem sie es ermöglichen, ein untersuchtes Programm schrittweise...

Constraint-logic object-oriented programming is useful in the integrated development of business software that occasionally solves constraint-logic problems. So far, work in constraint-logic object-oriented programming was limited to considering constraints that only involve logic variables of...
