In a distributed manufacturing shop (DMS), factories of various levels of manufacturing capabilities are equipped with diverse types of machines and tools and are scattered around many geographically different locations. Because of such geographical diversity, the quality control of sub-assemble products (SAP) is of great importance to ensure a high level of production quality. To address the c...

A quality perspective in data resource management is critical. Because users have different criteria for determining the quality of data, we propose tagging data at the cell level with quality indicators, which are objective characteristics of the data and its manufacturing process. Based on these indicators, the user may assess the data's quality for the intended application. This paper invest...

High-quality, diverse, and photorealistic images can now be generated by unconditional GANs (e.g., StyleGAN). However, limited options exist to control the generation process using (semantic) attributes, while still preserving quality of output. Further, due entangled nature GAN latent space, performing edits along one attribute easily result in unwanted changes other attributes. In this paper,...

Class cohesion is an important object-oriented software quality attribute. It indicates how much the members in a class are related. Assessing the class cohesion and improving the class quality accordingly during the object-oriented design phase allows for cheaper management of the later phases. In this paper, the notion of distance between pairs of methods and pairs of attribute types in a cla...

We introduce a software architecture based computation model for Scientific Computing. Its relevance becomes illustrated by the precise formulation and solution of a more than thirty years open complexity problem in Effective Algebraic Geometry (elimination theory).
