Ensuring the correctness of a given software component has become a crucial aspect in Software Engineering and the Model Checking technique provides a fully automated way to achieve this goal. In particular, the usage of Model Checking in formal languages…

Electronic Government applications aim to deliver efficient, seamless, customer-focused services to the public using various distribution channels. One of challenges in building such applications is the requirement to rely upon preexisting, often heterogeneous government applications. In order to enable communication…

The software architecture role in agile methodologies is not sufficiently documented or formalized by means of a process consistent with the philosophy. The current work’s contributions are: 1) Defining guidelines to implement architecture practices in an agile way and so…
