The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) designates the interconnection of communication-
enabled medical-grade devices and their integration to wider-scale health networks in order …

Over the last decade, a lot of research has been directed toward integrating performance
analysis into the software development process. Traditional software development methods …

One aim of component-based software engineering (CBSE) is to enable the prediction of
extra-functional properties, such as performance and reliability, utilising a well-defined …

Complex artificial dynamic systems require advanced modeling techniques that can
accommodate their asynchronous, concurrent, and highly non-linear nature. Discrete Event …

Microservices based architectures are increasingly widespread in the cloud software
industry. Still, there is a shortage of auto-scaling methods designed to leverage the unique …

Background The life sciences, biomedicine and health care are increasingly turning into a
data intensive science [2–4]. Particularly in bioinformatics and computational biology we …

Many distributed systems must be scalable, meaning that they must be economically
deployable in a wide range of sizes and configurations. This paper presents a scalability …

Layered queues are a canonical form of extended queueing network for systems with nested
multiple resource possession, in which successive depths of nesting define the layers. The …

Performance models are used increasingly throughout the phases of the software
engineering lifecycle of distributed component-based systems. However, as systems grow in …

This paper presents an efficient algorithm for high-quality speech capture in applications
such as hands-free teleconferencing or voice recording by personal computers. We process …
