The testing of event driven software has significant role to improve overall quality of software. Due to event driven nature of GUI based software many test cases are generated and it is difficult to identify test cases whose fault revealing capability is high. To identify those test cases test suite prioritization is done. Various test suite prioritization methods exists for GUI based software...

When establishing lightpaths in an all-optical DWDM network, it is possible that concurrent lightpath requests will block one another if the lightpaths attempt to reserve the same wavelength on the same link. In this paper, we propose a novel signaling mechanism, referred to as label prioritization, which attempts to reduce the backward-link blocking in GMPLS-centric all-optical networks by ass...

Test case prioritization aims to schedule test cases in a certain order such that the effectiveness of regression testing can be improved. Prioritization using random sequence is a basic and simple technique, and normally acts as a benchmark to evaluate other prioritization techniques. Adaptive Random Sequence (ARS) makes use of extra information to improve the diversity of random sequence. Som...

Requirement engineering plays a very important role in software development life cycle (SDLC). Generally Software projects suffer with the problem of various types and categories of requirements and are also delimited by constraints like time and budget. To deal with this type of requirement complexity, project managers need to prioritize the requirements of the proposed software effectively. T...

Test case prioritization involves scheduling test cases in an order that increases the effectiveness in achieving some performance goals. One of the most important performance goals is the rate of fault detection. Test cases should run in an order that increases the possibility of fault detection and also that detects the most severe faults at the earliest in its testing life cycle. Regression ...

Land preservation and restoration are important tools for managing imperiled aquatic species, but they are often applied in the absence of a transparent scheme of geographic prioritization. To help guide preservation and restoration efforts in the Conasauga River Basin in Georgia and Tennessee, we used the “Zonation” algorithm to prioritize sub-watersheds. Zonation is a prioritization system th...

This article elaborates an evaluation of seven software requirements prioritization methods (ANP, binary search tree, AHP, hierarchy AHP, spanning tree matrix, priority group and bubble sort). Based on the case study of local project (automation of Mobilink franchise system), the experiment is conducted by students in the Requirement Engineering course in the department of Software Engineering ...

The aim of this study was to describe the reasoning of people aged 60 years and over about prioritization in health care with regard to age and willingness to pay. Healthy people (n = 300) and people receiving continuous care and services (n = 146) who were between 60 and 101 years old were interviewed about their views on prioritization in health care. The transcribed interviews were analysed ...

one of the major criticisms leveled at task-based language teaching (tblt), despite its countless merits, is developing fluency at the cost of accuracy. the post-task stage affords a number of options to counteract this downside through task repetition and task recycling. these two options are considered to positively affect learners' oral performance in terms of fluency, accuracy, and complexi...

Although working memory is generally considered a highly dynamic mnemonic store, popular laboratory tasks used to understand its psychological and neural mechanisms (such as change detection and continuous reproduction) often remain relatively "static," involving the retention of a set number of items throughout a shared delay interval. In the current study, we investigated visual working memor...
