    Mbtdd: Model based test driven development

    , Article International Journal of Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering ; Volume 22, Issue 8 , 2012 , Pages 1085-1102 ; 02181940 (ISSN) Sadeghi, A ; Mirian Hosseinabadi, S. H ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Test Driven Development (TDD), as a quality promotion approach, suffers from some shortages that discourage its usage. One of the most challenging shortcomings of TDD is the low level of granularity and abstraction. This may lead to production of software that is not acceptable by the end users. Additionally, exploiting of TDD is not applicable in the enterprise systems development. To overcome this defect, we have merged TDD with Model Based Testing (MBT) and suggested a framework named Model Based Test Driven Development (MBTDD). According to TDD, writing test cases comes before programming, and based on our improved method of TDD, modeling precedes writing test cases. To validate the... 

    Analysis of Multi-skilled Labor Application in Multi-task Projects

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Khaghani, Farnaz (Author) ; Mortaheb, Mohammad Mehdi (Supervisor) ; Pourzahedi, Hossein (Co-Advisor)

Many strategies including compensation payment, longer hiring duration and increase in wages has been proposed. Conventional scheduling assumes unlimited amount of resources or if consider the resource, is restricted to single-skilled resource. This is in contrast with real-world where workers may not be available at any time or they may possess a range of skills. Multiskilling is a workforce strategy that has been shown to reduce indirect labor cost, improve productivity and make the planning more realistic. Past researches proposed algorithms using...

    Subcontractor (SC) selection is a critical part of SC management, and a major challenge is the existence of multiple criteria that the project management team needs to evaluate in the selection process. To overcome this challenge, the Kano model is applied to classify the selection criteria into five categories including must-be, reverse, one-dimensional, attractive, and indifferent. Data were obtained via a questionnaire based on Kano model concepts to categorize the identified selection criteria. The obtained results show that the selection criteria can be categorized into three categories; must-be, one-dimensional, and attractive. According to this categorization, the weight of criteria...

    Abstract
    Workers' absence considerably a ects the performance of labor-intensive construction projects. Identifying such absence patterns assists construction project managers in preparing proper project organization, reducing the absence rate, and improving the project performance. Despite its critical role, no study has investigated the absence pattern in the construction industry in Iran. This study addresses this gap by identifying the worker's absence pattern and providing recommendations to reduce the absence rate. First, a comprehensive literature review is conducted on the impacts of in uential factors in the worker's absence. Then, a questionnaire-based survey is designed and distributed...

    Abstract
    Quadrotors have become very popular, both commercially and as research platforms. Numerous studies have been carried out on these aerial vehicles, covering different aspects of their dynamics and control. Many of the interesting applications of quadrotors arise when they are used as part of a cooperative robotic system, consisting of aerial and ground robots. Two essential steps toward realizing autonomous teams of aerial and ground robots are achieving position coordination between them, and autonomous landing of aerial robots on ground platforms. The goal of this paper is to tackle the problems of tracking and landing of an aerial robot on a mobile platform. Two approaches are presented...
