Software reuse and software quality are increasingly important topics in today's software engineering both for researchers and for practitioners. The design and implementation of tests is especially challenging when tests are conceptualized for different variants and versions of an application. Stefan Baerisch applies a combination of...

Precise descriptions and instructions enable users, students and consultants to easily understand Microsoft Dynamics AX. Microsoft offers Dynamics AX as its premium ERP solution to support mid-size and larger organizations with a complete business management solution, which is easy to use. Going through a simple but comprehensive case study -...

Despite means of fault prevention such as extensive testing or formal verification, errors inevitably occur during system operation. To avoid subsequent system failures, critical distributed systems, therefore, require engineering of means for fault tolerance. Achieving fault tolerance requires some redundancy, which, unfortunately,...

The maintenance of long-living software systems is an essential topic in today’s software engineering practice and research. Software Architecture Restructuring is an important task to adjust these systems to current requirements and to keep them maintainable. Niels Streekmann introduces an approach to Software Architecture...

Zur Messung von physikalischen, chemischen und biologischen Größen werden Sensoren eingesetzt.

This carefully written textbook is an introduction to the beautiful concepts and results of complex analysis. It is intended for international bachelor and master programmes in Germany and throughout Europe; in the Anglo-American system of university education the content corresponds to a beginning graduate course. The book presents the...

Die bewegten und unbewegten Bauteile eines Kolbenmotors sind statischen und dynamischen Beanspruchungen ausgesetzt, die den Gesetzen der Mechanik folgen. In diesem Buch werden die einzelnen Motorkomponenten mit den dazugehörenden Berechnungsverfahren vorgestellt. Neben zahlreichen praktischen Auslegungshinweisen erläutert das Buch...

Generic group algorithms solve computational problems defined over algebraic groups without exploiting properties of a particular representation of group elements. This is modeled by treating the group as a black-box. The fact that a computational problem cannot be solved by a reasonably restricted class of algorithms may be seen as support...
