Robustness Assessment

Robustness is the degree to which a certain system or component can operate correctly in the presence of invalid inputs or stressful environmental conditions. With the increasing complexity and widespread use of computer systems, obtaining assurances regarding their robustness has become of vital importance. This survey discusses the state of the art on software robustness assessment, with emphasis on key aspects like types of systems being evaluated, assessment techniques used, the target of the techniques, the types of faults used, and how system behavior is classified. The survey concludes with the identification of gaps and open challenges related with robustness assessment.

Recent research on entity linking (EL) has introduced a plethora of promising techniques, ranging from deep neural networks to joint inference. But despite numerous papers there is surprisingly little understanding of the state of the art in EL. We attack this confusion by analyzing differences between several versions of the EL problem and presenting a simple yet effective, modular, unsupervised system, called Vinculum, for entity linking. We conduct an extensive evaluation on nine data sets, comparing Vinculum with two state-of-the-art systems, and elucidate key aspects of the system that include mention extraction, candidate generation, entity type prediction, entity coreference, and coherence.

This article describes the state-of-the-art methods available for systems reliability assessment. The significant contributions made to those methods in common use for the analysis of industrial systems are identified. The article reviews the developments in engineering systems that are likely to occur over the next decade that will challenge the current capability in this field and the potential advances that may result. A discussion is also provided of novel uses that will become possible due to the advances made in the assessment techniques over this period.

A major literature survey investigated the state of the art in human factors in computer systems. The survey was concerned both with the status of human factors research in the area of user-computer interaction and with the current state of user-computer interaction technology and practices. The principal goal of the study was to determine the feasibility of human factors guidelines for interactive computer systems, and to investigate their possible form and content. Thus, the study addressed both the state of the art in the field and the information needs and problem-solving behavior of interactive system designers, since these personnel would be the primary users of guidelines. It is concluded that insufficient data exist for the development of a “quantitative reference handbook” in this area, and that that form of presentation may not be appropriate anyway. On the other hand, a “human factors design guide” – which discusses issues, alternatives, and methods in the context of the design process – appears both feasible and needed.

Availability Assessment

This work stems from the worldwide increasing need to precisely consider, in the design phase of an HVDC project, the availability of the HVDC system. In this paper, an overview of the availability assessment methods for HVDC-VSC transmission systems is presented. In particular, the state of the art of the procedures to estimate the availability of both the HVDC link reparable components and the conversion system on the basis of the converter configuration is given. The theoretical fundamentals of each method, together with their practical applications, have been described, in order to highlight the limits and the potentialities of each approach. The authors aim at giving a guide to choosing the best computation approach on the basis of the specific needs of the users and at summarizing all the key aspects which can be taken into account during the availability assessment of HVDC-VSC links.

Human behaviour analysis through smartphone devices has been an active field for more than a decade and there are still a lot of key aspects to be addressed. This paper surveys the state-of-the-art in human behaviour analysis based on smartphones. We categorise prior works into four main sensing modalities related to physical, cognitive, emotional and social behaviour. Finally, we conclude with the outcomes of this survey and we illustrate our ideas for future research in the area of human behaviour understanding.

In this article we show the results of the application of an architecture based on Internet of things for the production of vermicompost through an interface that allows to monitor and collect temperature, humidity, and pH data through intelligent sensors that use the cloud computing service. The methodology used for the construction of the architecture was based on a search of the state of the art in open databases. For the implementation of the same, a pure experiment with a dependent variable and two independent ones was built. The results obtained by the measurements made during a period of four months, allowed to create grapHs where the constant temperature changes are observed in a range of 19 to 27 ° C, humidity in the range of 41% to 85% and the pH of 5 to 8.4 in the acid of the substrate. This information obtained in a ubiquitous way, helped the user to generate a weekly plan for irrigation, aeration, and mixing of the vermicompost, in order to reduce time, costs and human effort. It also helped maintain optimal environmental conditions for the reproduction of earthworms.

Various authors have emphasized the spatial information resident in an electron micrograph taken with adequately coherent radiation. In view of the completion of at least one such instrument, this opportunity is taken to summarize the state of the art of processing such micrographs. We use the usual symbols for the aberration coefficients, and supplement these with £ and 6 for the transverse coherence length and the fractional energy spread respectively. He also assume a weak, biologically interesting sample, with principal interest lying in the molecular skeleton remaining after obvious hydrogen loss and other radiation damage has occurred.
