Model Top-Down Analysis in software products.

In this paper will discuss an approach from the environmental variability of presentation software solutions. Focusing on the concept of software product family.

If we play the role of architects:

  •          How many times we try analyzing common feature in different forms of presentation?
  •          How many times have we requested a mobile solution attached to our traditional solution?
  •          Are simply the decisions to implement new presentations of the software solution?

Here is an introduction to the concept….

Software organizations are building a product vision characterized by the development and evolution of product families instead of creating a specific software product for a given client.
This trend is driven by several factors such as, business strategy, diversity computing devices and reuse of software components in complex software systems. However, the commercial dynamics of software development companies in Latin America have led them to have multiple software products developed in an ad hoc for each specific customers (system view).

These products evolve in order to meet the new requirements imposed by the clients, generating a set of software products with specific features of interaction in various settings, such as mobile environments, web, wap, or traditional management (e.g., Windows environment, Windows Form Application project). The architectural documentation of these devices, if available, does not reflect the implemented architecture, the main asset owned by the company is a set of assemblies and components that have different dependencies between them. A company that uses a system view and want to evolve into a product view must pass through a complex process. This process requires tools and techniques for processing of artifacts of the development process to allow extracting, abstracting, and refactory them and thus help in building a family of products.
I propose a method for automatic analyzing the various assemblies resulting from the development process, their relationships and their nature.

The method focuses on the analysis of the different environment of interaction of a set of software artifacts and their possible variants linked to a variation point.

For the moment I leave the model representation. This is Exavar..

I built a tool that uses the model and method for automated detection. This framework is one of my activities PhD.


Until the next time!

Cloud Platform & Communities summer experiences in Switzerland & Italy

A couple of weeks ago with the European developers communities team we started activities with some new communities specialized in Machine Learning & Cloud Platform.  We also participated in some activities and as part of this initiative, we visited two communities with a practical program proposal  based on Cloud Technology. Cloud Study Jam . We shared a very nice activity with SOAI chapter in Zurich . Here we present the basic elements of the Cloud Study Jam proposal and we also explored a workshop with the introduction to Cloud ML engine. Cloud Study Jam Overview: *a core element of Cloud Study Jam format is the utilization of qwiklabs platform to provide tech tutorial & online labs. Cloud Study Jam, workshop "Cloud ML Engine: Qwik Start": In addition to that, we shared another very nice activity with Machine Learning Milan . Similar approach with Cloud Study Jam Overview and then we provided a workshop related to AutoML Vision. Cloud Stud...

Community centered care data analysis, times of Covid-19

For the past few weeks, the global health emergency caused by Covid-19 has put many questions in my thoughts, from general to more specific in many dimensions. We all know that we should prepare better in the future and this morning reviewing the concept of community centered care “ At the Epicenter of the Covid-19 Pandemic and Humanitarian Crises in Italy: Changing Perspectives on Preparation and Mitigation ,(2020), Nacoti, Ciocca, ... ” added by the hospital in Bergamo Italy, sparked my interest... how to be prepared, how potentially implement and be smart into the distribution, finally using data from Korea( KCDC  and DS4C ), I started analyzing looking for responses. From the data analysis perspective if we can understand the entities and important variables geographically distributed in a region, we can analyze the activity of this approach at least in theory dimension. Also with an analysis of infection-cases we can explore the more affected regions and maybe create a d...
