'Konstantinos Gerasimidis' 'Umer Zeeshan Ijaz'] Background Shotgun metagenomics for microbial community survey recovers enormous amount of information for microbial genomes that include their abundances, taxonomic, and phylogenetic information, as well as their genomic makeup, the latter of which then helps retrieve…

In software development, it’s common to reuse existing source code by copying and pasting, resulting in the proliferation of numerous code clones-similar or identical code fragments-that detrimentally affect software quality and maintainability. Although several techniques for code clone detection exist, many encounter…

Current multi-agent frameworks usually use centralized, fixed communication infrastructures for the entities that are deployed using them. This decreases the robustness of the system but is less challenging when having to deal with mobile agents that can migrate between nodes. We introduce, in the context of the…

Background Software for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometers offer general functionality of instrument control and data processing; these applications are often developed with non-scripting languages. NMR users need to flexibly integrate rapidly developing NMR applications with emerging technologies.…

The fields of epidemiology and viral phylodynamics share the ultimate goal of disease control, but concepts, methodologies and data employed by each differ in ways that confer complementary strengths and different areas of weakness. We recently introduced EpiFusion, a model for joint inference of outbreak…

Integrated Genome Browser (IGB) is a fast, flexible, free and open-source genome browser implemented in Java that runs natively on users’ personal computers (). IGB is best known for its responsiveness and fast animated zooming, which evoke the feeling of effortless flight through a genomic data scene. IGB is also…

'Dongsheng Liu' 'Amelia Carolina Sparavigna'] Software maintenance is indispensable in the software development process. Developers need to spend a lot of time and energy to understand the software when maintaining the software, which increases the difficulty of software maintenance. It is a feasible method to…

'Igor Hawryszkiewycz' 'Tawfik Al-Hadhrami'] System design is an essential subject taught in information systems and has become a core course in its curriculum. Unified modelling language (UML) has been broadly adopted, and it is common to support the system design process using different diagrams. Each diagram serves a…

Real-time analysis of large multimedia streams is nowadays made efficient by the existence of several Big Data streaming platforms, like Apache Flink and Samza. However, the use of such platforms is difficult due to the fact that facilities they offer are often too raw to be effectively exploited by analysts. We…

When a method throws an exception- its exception precondition-is a crucial element of the method’s documentation that clients should know to properly use it. Unfortunately, exceptional behavior is often poorly documented, and sensitive to changes in a project’s implementation details that can be onerous to keep…

A representation of the cause-effect mechanism is needed to enable artificial intelligence to represent how the world works. Bayesian Networks (BNs) have proven to be an effective and versatile tool for this task. BNs require constructing a structure of dependencies among variables and learning the parameters that…

Malware harms the confidentiality and integrity of the information that causes material and moral damages to institutions or individuals. This study proposed a malware detection model based on API-call graphs and used Graph Variational Autoencoder (GVAE) to reduce the size of graph node features extracted from Android…
