  • Migrating Legacy Software Applications to Cloud Computing Environments : A Software Architect's Approach 

    Rowe, Fred (East Carolina University, 2011)
    Cloud computing has garnered a great deal of interest in the past few years. The availability of on-demand computational power is presumed to provide substantial IT infrastructure cost-savings, partially through the ...
  • miRCancer : a microRNA-Cancer Association Database and Toolkit Based on Text Mining 

    Xie, Boya (East Carolina University, 2010)
    MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of single-stranded small non-coding RNAs. Study of miRNAs has been a fast growing field since the first miRNA was discovered in 1993. Many findings indicate that miRNA plays an important role ...
  • Modeling and Testing of Aspect-Oriented Systems 

    Jiang, Wenhuan (East Carolina University, 2011)
    Aspect-Oriented programming modularizes crosscutting concerns into Aspects, which are automatically weaved to the specified points of a program. Although Aspect-Oriented programming improves program maintainability and the ...
  • A Protocol and Tool for Developing a Descriptive Behavioral Model 

    Jeck, Steven (East Carolina University, 2012)
    Fuzzy rules have been used to model complex human behavior in order to develop sophisticated industrial control systems. The use of fuzzy rules to create a behavioral model provides a quantitative basis for discussing the ...
  • Recurrence and Plasticity in Evolved Neural Controllers 

    Ahlstrom, Mark (East Carolina University, 2009)
    Among the more important applications of evolutionary neurocontrollers is the development of systems that are able to dynamically adapt to a changing environment. While traditional approaches to control system design demand ...
  • Self-Checked Metamorphic Testing of Monte Carlo Simulation 

    Wu, Tong (East Carolina University, 2011)
    Photon propagation in biological tissues can be modeled with Monte Carlo simulations numerically. However, testing a such program is difficult due to the unknown character of the test oracles. Although approaches based on ...
