Towards Succinctness In Mining Scenario-Based Specifications, David Lo, Shahar Maoz Dec 2011

Towards Succinctness In Mining Scenario-Based Specifications, David Lo, Shahar Maoz

David LO

Specification mining methods are used to extract candidate specifications from system execution traces. A major challenge for specification mining is succinctness. That is, in addition to the soundness, completeness, and scalable performance of the specification mining method, one is interested in producing a succinct result, which conveys a lot of information about the system under investigation but uses a short, machine and human-readable representation. In this paper we address the succinctness challenge in the context of scenario-based specification mining, whose target formalism is live sequence charts (LSC), an expressive extension of classical sequence diagrams. We do this by adapting three …

Many context-aware mobile applications require a reasonably accurate and stable estimate of a user’s location. While the Global Positioning System (GPS) works quite well world-wide outside of buildings and urban canyons, locating an indoor user in a real-world environment is much more problematic. Several different approaches and technologies have been explored, some involving specialized sensors and appliances, and others using increasingly ubiquitous Wi- Fi and Bluetooth radios. In this project, we want to leverage existing Wi-Fi access points (AP) and seek efficient approaches to gain usefully high room-level accuracy of the indoor location prediction of a mobile user.
