Abstract:
This thesis presents a narrative-based Requirements Engineering (RE) mediation model (NREMM) to help RE practitioners to effectively identify, define, and resolve conflicts of interests, goals, and requirements in the RE process. Conflict has received increasing attention in the Software Engineering (SE) literature. However, in the current RE literature, conflict has received fairly superficial attention. Previous research views conflict as an issue causing "inconsistency" in a requirements specification. As a result, current research has proposed a wide range of inconsistency checki

Origami can turn a sheet of paper into complex three-dimensional shapes, and similar folding techniques can be used to build structures and mechanisms. However, folding by hand can be difficult and time consuming. This has led to the development of self-folding materials that transform themselves from flat sheets into 3D shapes by bending themselves along hinges. A variety of self-folding methods have been demonstrated at a variety of length scales, but they have not yet been used to build complex machines. This dissertation demonstrates that self-folding can produce functional machines with

Hue and intensity values are used in computing the ratio image which is used to segment shadowed regions. For shadow segmentation Otsu&rsquo<br>s method is used on the histogram of the ratio image.

Abstract:
Most of the energy required by residential buildings is for low temperature heat. Often this demand is met by the use of high quality energy sources such as fossil fuels and electricity. The energy analysis alone does not take into account the quality of energy and so it hides the real potential for the so-called energy savings. Thus the concept of exergy must be involved. In particular the low-exergy approach shows that the energy with low exergy level has to be supplied with energy with similar exergy content. Consequently, the problem is shifted to find energy sources suitable for this purp

The function of revenue assurance is central in today's telecom industry. Although it has been always important there are a couple of factors that have now brought it to the forefront.

On the other hand, Sarbanes-Oxley and other regulatory requirements are mandating telecom managers to definitively prove the numbers that they report to shareholders and to the public.

Abstract:
In the context of Performance-Based Earthquake Engineering (PBEE) there is an increasing need for the development of rapid damage assessment methodologies for buildings that will enable stakeholders to take informed decisions for management of rescue resources, for reliable estimation of economic losses after an earthquake event in an urban area and for seismic rehabilitation of damaged infrastructure. An important difficulty to assess the post-earthquake functionality of a steel building is the fact that after an earthquake a detailed engineering inspection is typically required. These inspec
