This paper suggests a test development process model that takes software reuse techniques and activities into account and shows further that in order to produce reusable test material, the software entities must be expressed in terms of features, in which the test materials are attached to.

This paper presents a high-level view of a measurement framework that has been used with multiple agile software development industrial case studies and proposes that this technology-dependent framework can be used as a strawman for a guideline of data collection, analysis, and reporting of industrial case study resear...

Early results suggest that the behaviors introduced in the model are relevant in SPI initiatives, the use of model raises the awareness about the people issues in improving processes, and the model could be used aside with CMM, SPICE or other process improvement models.

For decades, a fundamental question about the difficulty of computing in high-dimensional spaces has resisted proof. New research resolves this question, removing a major theoretical obstacle to understanding the efficiency of randomized algorithms used across science and computing. The Kannan–Lovász–Simonovits (KLS) conjecture was proposed in 1995. It asks whether, for a broad class of high-dimensional […] The post Solving a 31-year-old grand challenge in mathematics – the KLS conjecture appear…

Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
