Reconstruction of Software Component Architectures and Behaviour Models using Static and Dynamic Analysis
Model-based performance prediction systematically deals with the evaluation of software performance to avoid for example bottlenecks, estimate execution environment sizing, or identify scalability limitations for new usage scenarios. Such performance predictions require up-to-date software performance models. This book describes a new integrated reverse engineering approach for the reconstruction of parameterised software performance models (software component architecture and behaviour).
Python for Data Science
A hands-on, real-world introduction to data analysis with the Python programming language, loaded with wide-ranging examples. Python is an ideal choice for accessing, manipulating, and gaining insights from data of all kinds. Python for Data Science introduces you to the Pythonic world of data analysis with a learn-by-doing approach rooted in practical examples and hands-on activities. You'll learn how to write Python code to obtain, transform, and analyze data, practicing state-of-the-art data processing techniques for use cases in business management, marketing, and decision support. You will discover Python's rich set of built-in data structures for basic operations, as well as its robust ecosystem of open-source libraries for data science, including NumPy, pandas, scikit-learn, matplotlib, and more. Examples show how to load data in various formats, how to streamline, group, and aggregate data sets, and how to create charts, maps, and other visualizations. Later chapters go in-depth with demonstrations of real-world data applications, including using location data to power a taxi service, market basket analysis to identify items commonly purchased together, and machine learning to predict stock prices.
Tool-supported identification of functional concerns in object-oriented code
Concern identification aims to find the implementation of a functional concern in existing source code. In this work, concerns are described, using the Hierarchic Concern Model, as gray-boxes containing subconcerns, inputs, and outputs. The inputs and outputs are used as concern seeds to identify data-oriented abstractions of concern implementations, called concern skeletons. The identification approach is based on context free language reachability and supported by a tool, called CoDEx.
Programming Languages
Computer scientists often need to learn new programming languages quickly. The best way to prepare for this is to understand the foundational principles that underlie even the most complicated industrial languages. This text for an undergraduate programming languages course distills great languages and their design principles down to easy-to-learn 'bridge' languages implemented by interpreters whose key parts are explained in the text. The book goes deep into the roots of both functional and object-oriented programming, and it shows how types and modules, including generics/polymorphism, contribute to effective programming. The book is not just about programming languages; it is also about programming. Through concepts, examples, and more than 300 practice exercises that exploit the interpreter, students learn not only what programming-language features are but also how to do things with them. Substantial implementation projects include Milner's type inference, both copying and mark-and-sweep garbage collection, and arithmetic on arbitrary-precision integers.

Intelligent Notification Systems
Notifications provide a unique mechanism for increasing the effectiveness of real-time information delivery systems. However, notifications that demand users' attention at inopportune moments are more likely to have adverse effects and might become a cause of potential disruption rather than proving beneficial to users. In order to address these challenges a variety of intelligent notification mechanisms based on monitoring and learning users' behavior have been proposed. The goal of such mechanisms is maximizing users' receptivity to the delivered information by automatically inferring the right time and the right context for sending a certain type of information. This book presents an overview of the current state of the art in the area of intelligent notification mechanisms that rely on the awareness of users' context and preferences. We first present a survey of studies focusing on understanding and modeling users' interruptibility and receptivity to notifications from desktops and mobile devices. Then, we discuss the existing challenges and opportunities in developing mechanisms for intelligent notification systems in a variety of application scenarios.

Towards Design and Development of Secure and Privacy-Preserving Frameworks for IoT-enabled Networks
Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2022 in the subject Computer Sciences - Internet of Things, IOT, grade: First, course: PhD, language: English, abstract: With the advancement of low-cost and low energy-consuming sensors, the Internet of Things (IoT) is building a network of Internet-enabled devices. The concept of IoT is employed in almost all fields such as healthcare, smart cities, smart grids, energy distribution, agriculture, and even transportation. In a typical IoT-enabled network, smart sensors are geographically distributed to collect and process data within a smart infrastructure using an open channel, the Internet. However, the use of the Internet brings inherent vulnerabilities related to security (e.g., IoT devices can be compromised using advanced hacking techniques) and privacy (e.g., adversary performing inference and data poisoning attacks). Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) are the two most extensively used techniques in IoT-enabled networks to safeguard the integrity and availability of sensitive smart systems. However, the presence of a large volume of data i.e., dimensionality curse and cloud-based centralized deployment mechanism hurts the IDS performance in terms of intrusion detection tasks and increased latency for data processing. On the other hand, modelling CTI is challenging due to the limited labels of cyber threat sources, and analysing these sources to extract relevant threat information manually is a time-consuming and error-prone procedure that necessitates a large investment of resources. This thesis provides substantial contributions to research on the building of a distributed IDS, a hybrid feature selection approach, an automated CTI Modelling and Identification scheme, and a deep privacy-encoding module for enhancing security and privacy of IoT-enabled networks.
