Software design patterns are well-known solutions for solving commonly occurring problems in software design. Detecting design patterns used in the code can help to understand the structure and behavior of the software, evaluate the quality of the software, and trace important design decisions. To develop and maintain a software system, we need sufficient knowledge of design decisions and software implementation processes. However, the acquisition of knowledge related to design patterns used in complex software systems is a challenging, time-consuming, and costly task. Therefore, using a suitable method to detect the design patterns used in the code reduces software development and maintenance costs. In this paper, we proposed a new method based on conceptual signatures to improve the accuracy of design pattern detection. So we used the conceptual signatures based on the purpose of patterns to detect the patterns’ instances that conform to the standard structure of patterns, and cover more instances of patterns’ variants and implementation versions of the patterns and improve the accuracy of pattern detection. The proposed method is a specific process in two main phases. In the first phase, the conceptual signature and detection formula for each pattern is determined manually. Then in the second phase, each pattern in the code is detected in a semi-automatic process using the conceptual signature and pattern detection formula. To implement the proposed method, we focused on GoF design patterns and their variants. We evaluated the accuracy of our proposed method on five open-source projects, namely, Junit v3.7, JHotDraw v5.1, QuickUML 2001, JRefactory v2.6.24, and MapperXML v1.9.7. Also, we performed our experiments on a set of source codes containing the instances of GoF design patterns’ variants for a comprehensive and fair evaluation. The evaluation results indicate that the proposed method has improved the accuracy of design pattern detection in the code.
Recommender systems are powerful tools that allow companies to present personalized offers to their customers and defined as a system which recommends an appropriate product or service after learning the customers’ preferences and desires. Extracting users’ preferences through their buying behavior and history of purchased products is the most important element of such systems. Due to users’ unlimited and unpredictable desires, identifying their preferences is very complicated process. In most researches, less attention has been paid to user’s preferences varieties in different product categories. This may decrease quality of recommended items. In this paper, we introduced a technique of recommendation in the context of online retail store which extracts user preferences in each product category separately and provides more personalized recommendations through employing product taxonomy, attributes of product categories, web usage mining and combination of two well-known filtering methods: collaborative and content-based filtering. Experimental results show that proposed technique improves quality, as compared to similar approaches. 相似文献
Resource sharing between book-ahead (BA) and instantaneous request (IR) reservation often results in high preemption rates
for ongoing IR calls in computer networks. High IR call preemption rates cause interruptions to service continuity, which
is considered detrimental in a QoS-enabled network. A number of call admission control models have been proposed in the literature
to reduce preemption rates for ongoing IR calls. Many of these models use a tuning parameter to achieve certain level of preemption
rate. This paper presents an artificial neural network (ANN) model to dynamically control the preemption rate of ongoing calls
in a QoS-enabled network. The model maps network traffic parameters and desired operating preemption rate by network operator
providing the best for the network under consideration into appropriate tuning parameter. Once trained, this model can be
used to automatically estimate the tuning parameter value necessary to achieve the desired operating preemption rates. Simulation
results show that the preemption rate attained by the model closely matches with the target rate. 相似文献
Metal-organic framework (MOF) has been shown to potential applications due to the high porous hybrid structure. Cobalt MOF was synthesized rapidly by ultrasound energy with about 3,000 m2/g surface area by BET method. Furthermore, this component is crystalline with significant thermal stability, on account of X-ray diffraction and thermal analysis, respectively. Based on high roughness, crystallinity, and unreported type of FTIR spectrum, a new structure of Co-MOF structure was proposed. 相似文献
This study presents a methodology for making bricks, in a cost-effective and environmentally friendly manner, using the tailings produced from iron ore mines in Western Australia (WA). The study was based on the geopolymerisation process, which is known to conserve energy by reducing the emission of greenhouse gases. The reduction is accomplished by avoiding the processes of high temperature kiln firing, traditionally utilised when making bricks from sandy soils with high clay content. In this study, the sodium silicate was added to the mine tailings in powder form, as an activator for the formulation of the geopolymer bricks. The effects of the initial setting time, curing temperature, curing time and activator content on the unconfined compressive strength (UCS), water absorption and other durability properties of the bricks were investigated. X-ray diffraction analysis was performed to investigate the phase composition of the geopolymer bricks. The bricks achieved an UCS as high as 50.53 MPa for the optimum values of the parameters. Technically, the geopolymer bricks that were produced met both the American Society of Testing and Materials and the Australian Standards (AS) requirements for bricks. A cost analysis of the geopolymer bricks is also presented, and this shows that the cost of geopolymer bricks is lower than that of the commercial, fired clay bricks. 相似文献
In this paper, a transparent magnesium aluminate spinel ceramic was fabricated through the newest colloidal gel casting method, using a synthetic powder with the average particle size of 90 nm and Isobutylene-Maleic Anhydride (ISOBAM) additive. ISOBAM served as both a dispersant and a gelation agent to achieve a dense body. Also, the suspension rheological behavior was optimized by the solid loading of 85 wt%, the additive content of 0.7 wt%, and the gelation time of 350 s. This led to a green body with a density equal to 65% of theoretical density and the green strength of 14.48 MPa. The results revealed that the reduction of porosity and the uniform distribution of pores in the green body (smaller than half of the initial powder particle size, 35 nm), as accompanied by spark plasma sintering (SPS), resulted in the final body density of 99.97%, as well as the high in-line transmittance of 86.7% at the wavelength of 1100 nm. 相似文献
The purpose of this paper is to consider network survivability designs that utilize the p-cycle, and to propose a novel ILP formulation for capacity design based on network fundamental cycles, as well as the available
straddling links. Concepts of visible and hidden straddling links—which are essential components of the model presented herein—are
also introduced. The proposed model caters for the case of joint optimization of a p-cycle network that can be solved without enumerating p-cycle candidates. In addition, the complexity of the proposed model is much less than any conventional model dealing with
large size networks and suitable for the design of networks having multiple quality of protection (MQoP) service classes using
mixed protection techniques. 相似文献
An analysis of directly and externally modulated fiber-optic links is presented. The theoretical analysis is based on the signal flow diagram of the interface circuits to the laser diode, Mach-Zehnder electro-optic modulator, and p-i-n photodiode. System parameters such as gain, noise figure, two-tone intermodulation distortion, and spurious free and compression dynamic range are expressed as a function of frequency and operating point of the laser and external modulator. Two directly and externally modulated fiber-optic links were designed and fabricated to verify the analytical models. The direct modulation FO link was developed at the Ku-band (11.6-12.4 GHz), whereas the external modulation link was at L-band (875-925 MHz). Spurious-free dynamic ranges of 95.8 dB Hz2/3 and 113 dB Hz 2/3, respectively, were achieved. The predictions based on the analytical models match the measured results 相似文献
