This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Grid Services Engineering and Management, GSEM 2004, held in Erfurt, Germany, in September 2004. The 11 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 21 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on grid service architecture, grid service composition, service security, and grid service management.
This book explores the application of agile and lean techniques, originally from the field of software development and manufacturing, to various aspects of education. It covers a broad range of topics, including applying agile teaching and learning techniques in the classroom, incorporating lean thinking in educational workflows, and using team-based approaches to student-centred activities based on agile principles and processes. Demonstrating how agile and lean ideas can concretely be applied to education, the book offers practical guidance on how to apply these ideas in the classroom or lecture hall, as well as new concepts that could spark further research and development.
This book features selected contributions in the areas of modeling, simulation, and optimization. The contributors discusses requirements in problem solving for modeling, simulation, and optimization. Modeling, simulation, and optimization have increased in demand in exponential ways and how potential solutions might be reached. They describe how new technologies in computing and engineering have reduced the dimension of data coverage worldwide, and how recent inventions in information and communication technology (ICT) have inched towards reducing the gaps and coverage of domains globally. The chapters cover how the digging of information in a large data and soft-computing techniques have c...
This book constitutes the refereed post-proceedings of the Third European Workshop on Software Architecture, EWSA 2006, held in France in September 2006. The 13 revised full research papers and five revised position papers presented together with one invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected. All current aspects of software architectures are addressed ranging from foundational and methodological issues to application issues of practical relevance.
