Approved for public release; distribution unlimited.<br>The use of Computer-Aided Software Engineering (CASE) tools has been viewed as a remedy for the software development crisis by achieving improved productivity and system quality via the automation of all or part of the software engineering process. The proliferation and tremendous variety of tools available have stretched the understanding of experienced practitioners and has had a profound impact on the software engineering process itself.

Abstract:

Complex modern software is often built using existing application frameworks and middleware frameworks. These frameworks provide useful common services, while simultaneously imposing architectural rules and constraints. Existing software architecture evaluation methods do not explicitly consider the implications of these frameworks for software architecture.

I propose four techniques which target four different activities within a scenario-b

This study has presented a new model for predicting software reliability based on design metrics. An introduction to the problem of software reliability is followed by a brief overview of software reliability models. A description of the models is given, including a discussion of some of the issues associated with them. The intractability of validating life-critical software is presented. Such validation is shown to require extended periods of test time that are impractical in real world situations.

Computer systems that earn a high degree of trust must be backed by rigorous verification methods. A verification system is an interactive environment for writing formal specifications and checking formal proofs. Verification systems allow large complicated proofs to be managed and checked interactively. We desire evaluation criteria that provide a means of finding which verification system is suitable for a specific research environment and what needs of a particular project the tool satisfies. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to develop a methodology and set of evaluation criteria to

Abstract:

This thesis is on the automatic creation of model generators to assist the validation of model transformations. The model driven software development methodology advocates models as the main artefact to represent software during development. Such models are automatically converted, by transformation tools, to apply in different stages of development. In one application of the method, it becomes possible to synthesise software implementations from design models. However, the transformations used to convert models are man-made, and so prone to development error. An error in a transformation can

In medical image registration the goal is to find point by point correspondences between a source image and a target image such that the two images are aligned. There are rigid and non-rigid registration algorithms. Rigid registration uses rigid transformation methods which preserve distances between every pair of points. Non-rigid registration uses transformation methods that do not have to preserve the distances.

In recent years it has been claimed that connectionist methods of representing compositional structures, such as lists and trees, support a new form of symbol processing known as holistic computation.

This thesis presents firstly, a critical examination of the concept of holistic computation, as described in the literature, along with a revised definition of the concept that aims to clarify the issues involved.
