1. SOFTWARE CHANGES: RELATED SOFTWARE ARTIFACTS AND THEIR RELATIONSHIPS

Authors: MOHAMMAD HOSSEIN ABOLGHASEM ZADEH , MOHD NAZRI KAMA , POURYA NIKFARD , SUHAIMI BIN IBRAHIM

Abstract: It is almost impossible to obtain and understand all software requirements at early stages of Software Development Life Cycle without changes. Technical requirement evolves after software specification phase by client organization or project team members frequently. This paper classified the software changes problems and list all related software artifacts to perform the requested software change. The relationships of various change software artifacts during applying change process are discussed in detail.

Keywords: Software Changes, Change Software Artifacts, Requirement Change Management, Impact Analysis, Software Configuration Management, Traceability.

2. GENETIC ALGORITHM FOR READER NETWORK PLANNING PROBLEM

Authors: HSING-FANG TSAI , SHIN-YEU LIN

Abstract: Reader network planning (RNP) problem of radio frequency identification (RFID) system is a combinational optimization problem. In this study, we propose a genetic algorithm (GA) to solve this RNP problem. We have tested the proposed GA on several RNP problems and compare with a particle swarm optimization (PSO) method by solving the same RNPs. The comparison results demonstrate that the proposed GA outperforms the PSO method.

Keywords: radio frequency identification (RFID); RFID network planning (RNP); genetic algorithm (GA); particle swarm optimization (PSO)

3. IMPROVING ENERGY EFFICIENCY OF MANET BY ENHANCED DISTANCE BASED BROADCASTING PROTOCOL

Authors: K.SANGEETHA SUPRIYA , P.SUBBAIAH , V.RAMESH

Abstract: This paper presents a tool that enables non-technical end-users to use free-form queries in exploring relational databases with simple and direct technique, in a fashion similar to using search engines to search text files on the web. This allows web designers and database developers specially in small business sectors to publish their databases for web browsers exploring in practical way. We assume that each database to be processed in our approach is ‘about’ a particular type of object, where only certain tables and certain attributes will be the ‘public’ ones and likely to be searchable on the web. The proposed approach can be used for both Internet and Intranet application areas. Our technique has been borrowed from the similar techniques used for information retrieval (IR), mainly for text and document databases; it supports working smoothly with the structured information stored in relational databases.

Keywords: Energy efficiency, Mobile Ad-hoc Networks, cross layer design, unreachability, and distance based broadcasting
