    Citation: Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society 2004 10:BF03192363
  4. Component-based development (CBD) is recognized today as the standard paradigm for structuring large software systems. However, the most popular component models and component-based development processes provi...

    Authors: Fernando Castor Filho, Paulo Asterio de C. Guerra, Vinicius Asta Pagano and Cecília Mary F. Rubira
    Citation: Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society 2004 10:BF03192362
  5. Distributed Shared Memory systems allow the use of the shared memory programming paradigm in distributed architectures where no physically shared memory exist. Scope consistent software DSMs provide a relaxed ...

    Authors: Alba Cristina M. A. Melo, Maria Emilia M. T. Walter, Renata Cristina F. Melo, Marcelo N. P. Santana and Rodolfo B. Batista
    Citation: Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society 2004 10:BF03192360
  6. Design patterns offer flexible solutions to common problems in software development. Recent studies have shown that several design patterns involve crosscutting concerns. Unfortunately, object-oriented (OO) ab...

    Authors: Cláudio Sant’Anna, Alessandro Garcia, Uirá Kulesza, Carlos Lucena and Arndt von Staa
    Citation: Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society 2004 10:BF03192358
  7. Agile software processes emerged to address the issue of building software on time and within the planned budget. To adopt an agile process, it is imperative to analyze and evaluate its effectiveness in suppor...

    Authors: Américo Sampaio, Alexandre Vasconcelos and Pedro R. Falcone Sampaio
    Citation: Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society 2004 10:BF03192357
  8. Agile Methods propose a new way of looking at software development that questions many of the beliefs of conventional Software Engineering. Agile methods such as Extreme Programming (XP) have been very effecti...

    Citation: Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society 2004 10:BF03192354
  10. Reflection is now an established technique for achieving dynamic adaptability of middleware platforms. It provides a clean and comprehensive way to access the internals of a platform implementation, allowing i...

    Authors: Fábio M. Costa and Bruno da Silva Santos
    Citation: Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society 2004 10:BF03192353
  11. Nowadays computing environments are made of heterogeneous networked resources, but unlike environments used a decade ago, the current environments are highly dynamic. During a computing session, new resources ...
