Publicación A scalable approach to exact model and commonality counting for extended feature models.(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2014-05-29) Fernández Amoros, David José; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Cerrada Somolinos, José Antonio; Cerrada Somolinos, CarlosA software product line is an engineering approach to efficient development of software product portfolios. Key to the success of the approach is to identify the common and variable features of the products and the interdependencies between them, which are usually modeled using feature models. Implicitly, such models also include valuable information that can be used by economic models to estimate the payoffs of a product line. Unfortunately, as product lines grow, analyzing large feature models manually becomes impracticable. This paper proposes an algorithm to compute the total number of products that a feature model represents and, for each feature, the number of products that implement it. The inference of both parameters is helpful to describe the standarization/parameterization balance of a product line, detect scope flaws, assess the product line incremental development, and improve the accuracy of economic models. The paper reports experimental evidence that our algorithm has better runtime performance than existing alternative approaches.Publicación Exemplar driven development of software product lines(Elsevier, 2012-12-01) Heradio Gil, Rubén; Fernández Amoros, David José; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Abad Cardiel, IsmaelThe benefits of following a product line approach to develop similar software systems are well documented. Nevertheless, some case studies have revealed significant barriers to adopt such approach. In order to minimize the paradigm shift between conventional software engineering and software product line engineering, this paper presents a new development process where the products of a domain are made by analogy to an existing product. Furthermore, this paper discusses the capabilities and limitations of different techniques to implement the analogy relation and proposes a new language to overcome such limitations.Publicación A literature review on feature diagram product counting and its usage in software product line economic models(World Scientific Publishing, 2013-10-01) Heradio Gil, Rubén; Fernández Amoros, David José; Cerrada Somolinos, José Antonio; Abad Cardiel, IsmaelIn software product line engineering, feature diagrams are a popular means to represent the similarities and differences within a family of related systems. In addition, feature diagrams implicitly model valuable information that can be used in economic models to estimate the cost savings of a product line. In particular, this paper reviews existing proposals on computing the total number of products modeled with a feature diagram and, given a feature, the number of products that implement it. The paper also reviews the economic information that can be estimated when such numbers are known. Thus, this paper contributes by bringing together previously-disparate streams of work: the automated analysis of feature diagrams and economic models for product lines.Publicación A SCADA oriented middleware for RFID technology(Elsevier, 2012-09-01) Abad Cardiel, Ismael; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Cerrada Somolinos, Carlos; Cerrada Somolinos, José AntonioRadio Frequency IDentification (RFID) has emerged as the new technology paradigm for acquisition and information management. RFID can be used to improve significantly the efficiency of business processes by providing the capability of automatic identification and data capture. This technology introduces new challenges on data and process information management in current systems. RFID data are timedependent and dynamically changing. In addition, data carry implicit semantics. The homogeneous data processing of such implicit semantics allows us to propose RFID middleware as a WHO–WHEN–WHERE data problem. This paper presents DEPCAS, a new middleware for RFID information based on the SCADA architecture for control systems. An application of DEPCAS is the resolution of heterogeneous situations, which solves the WHAT or context–aware to apply the auto identification data received from RFID systems in business applications.Publicación Speeding up derivative configuration from product platforms(MDPI, 2014-06-18) Pérez Morago, Héctor José; Adán, Antonio; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Fernández Amoros, David JoséTo compete in the global marketplace, manufacturers try to differentiate their products by focusing on individual customer needs. Fulfilling this goal requires that companies shift from mass production to mass customization. Under this approach, a generic architecture, named product platform, is designed to support the derivation of customized products through a configuration process that determines which components the product comprises. When a customer configures a derivative, typically not every combination of available components is valid. To guarantee that all dependencies and incompatibilities among the derivative constituent components are satisfied, automated configurators are used. Flexible product platforms provide a big number of interrelated components, and so, the configuration of all, but trivial, derivatives involves considerable effort to select which components the derivative should include. Our approach alleviates that effort by speeding up the derivative configuration using a heuristic based on the information theory concept of entropy.Publicación Supporting commonality-based analysis of software product lines(Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 2011-03-24) Heradio Gil, Rubén; Fernández Amoros, David José; Cerrada Somolinos, José Antonio; Cerrada Somolinos, CarlosSoftware Product Line (SPL) engineering is a cost effective approach to developing families of similar products. Key to the success of this approach is to correctly scope the domain of the SPL, identifying the common and variable features of the products and the interdependencies between features. In this paper, we show how the commonality of a feature (i.e., the reuse ratio of the feature among the products) can be used to detect scope flaws in the early stages of development. SPL domains are usually modeled by means of feature diagrams following the FODA notation. We extend classical FODA trees with unrestricted cardinalities, and present an algorithm to compute the number of products modeled by a feature diagram and the commonality of the features. Finally, we compare the performance of our algorithm with two other approaches built on top of boolean logic SAT-solver technology such as cachet and relsat.Publicación Managing RFID sensors networks with a general purpose RFID middleware(MDPI, 2012-06-07) Valero Rodríguez, Enrique; Abad Cardiel, Ismael; Cerrada Somolinos, Carlos; Cerrada Somolinos, José Antonio; Heradio Gil, RubénRFID middleware is anticipated to one of the main research areas in the field of RFID applications in the near future. The Data EPC Acquisition System (DEPCAS) is an original proposal designed by our group to transfer and apply fundamental ideas from System and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems into the areas of RFID acquisition, processing and distribution systems. In this paper we focus on how to organize and manage generic RFID sensors (edge readers, readers, PLCs, etc…) inside the DEPCAS middleware. We denote by RFID Sensors Networks Management (RSNM) this part of DEPCAS, which is built on top of two new concepts introduced and developed in this work: MARC (Minimum Access Reader Command) and RRTL (RFID Reader Topology Language). MARC is an abstraction layer used to hide heterogeneous devices inside a homogeneous acquisition network. RRTL is a language to define RFID Reader networks and to describe the relationship between them (concentrator, peer to peer, master/submaster).Publicación A bibliometric analysis of off-line handwritten document analysis literature (1990–2020)(Elsevier, 2022-05) Ruiz Parrado, Victoria; Vélez, José F.; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Sánchez Ávila, ÁngelProviding computers with the ability to process handwriting is both important and challenging, since many difficulties (e.g., different writing styles, alphabets, languages, etc.) need to be overcome for addressing a variety of problems (text recognition, signature verification, writer identification, word spotting, etc.). This paper reviews the growing literature on off-line handwritten document analysis over the last thirty years. A sample of 5389 articles is examined using bibliometric techniques. Using bibliometric techniques, this paper identifies (i) the most influential articles in the area, (ii) the most productive authors and their collaboration networks, (iii) the countries and institutions that have led research on the topic, (iv) the journals and conferences that have published most papers, and (v) the most relevant research topics (and their related tasks and methodologies) and their evolution over the years.Publicación Using IoT-Type Metadata and Smart Web Design to Create User Interfaces Automatically(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2023-02) Chacón, Jesús; Chandramouli, Rajarathnam; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Chaos García, Dictino; Heradio Gil, RubénThe advent of the Internet of Things has generated loads of data from the devices that are now connected to the Internet. While the majority of the data corresponds to measurements done by these devices, there is a second type of information (the metadata) that provides information about the devices themselves. Most of this metadata is still underused when used at all. On the other hand, the graphical user interfaces that allow operating and/or monitoring the connected devices from a computer or smartphone, are usually programmed from zero. However, the metadata that describes the main properties of the devices (i.e., inputs, outputs, precision, range, etc.) can be used along with smart web design techniques to automatically create these interfaces. This article proposes a framework to achieve this, and presents an application example consisting of an online lab of a servo-motor.Publicación Finding Near-optimal Configurations in Colossal Spaces with Statistical Guarantees(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2023-11-23) Oh, Jeho; Batory, Don; Heradio Gil, RubénA Software Product Line (SPL) is a family of similar programs. Each program is defined by a unique set of features, called a configuration, that satisfies all feature constraints. “What configuration achieves the best performance for a given workload?” is the SPLOptimization (SPLO) challenge. SPLO is daunting: just 80 unconstrained features yield 1024 unique configurations, which equals the estimated number of stars in the universe. We explain (a) how uniform random sampling and random search algorithms solve SPLO more efficiently and accurately than current machine-learned performance models and (b) how to compute statistical guarantees on the quality of a returned configuration; i.e., it is within x% of optimal with y% confidence.
