Twirre is a new architecture for mini-UAV platforms designed for autonomous flight in both GPS-enabled and GPS-deprived applications. The architecture consists of low-cost hardware and software components. High-level control software enables autonomous operation. Exchanging or upgrading hardware …

Abstract-Architecture Compliance Checking (ACC) is an approach to verify the conformance of implemented program code to high-level models of architectural design. ACC is used to prevent architectural erosion during the development and evolution of a software system. Static ACC, based on static software …

The Stuwwal Nijmegen provides special beauty with landscape contrasts such as the contrast between high and low. The complex underground provides a great diversity in flora and fauna. This extraordinary beauty is in danger of being lost due to increasing climate change. The hilly landscape extends to …

As the value of brands represents enormous amounts of money to companies, understanding how to influence what drives consumers in their brand selections and brand loyalties is a matter of great importance.

IT architects in practice have a difficult task in extending and adapting enterprise information systems. Mastering complexity is a priority. This is still more art than craftsmanship in spite of many years of academic research in IT architecture. We will explore by a series of case studies how to support …

Abstract-Architecture Compliance Checking (ACC) is useful to bridge the gap between architecture and implementation. ACC is an approach to verify conformance of implemented program code to high-level models of architectural design. Static ACC focuses on the modular software architecture and on the existence …

One of the goals of this research is to arrive at an implementation of a CAN-bus that can be used for lab exercises in regular student courses. In this paper, an overview is given of our basic ideas concerning the CAN concept and its application to the control of a manufacturing system. This system consists …
