Agent based Model for providing optimized, synchronized and failure free execution of workflow process

The main objective of this paper is to provide an optimized solution and algorithm for the execution of a workflow process by ensuring the data consistency, correctness, completeness among various tasks involved. The solution proposed provides a synchronized and failure free flow of execution among various tasks involved in a workflow process. A synchronizing agent is bound at a very low level, i.e. with the workflow activity or task to get the desired goals to be done and an algorithm is provided to show the execution of workflow process completely.

Teaching Quality Assurance and Project Management to Undergraduate Computing Students in Pakistan

Software Project Management (SPM) and Software Quality Assurance (SQA) are key components of undergraduate Computing programmes at educational establishments in Pakistan. Because of the nature of these subjects, there are a number of issues that need to be discussed and resolved so that the teaching becomes more effective, students learning experience is more enjoyable and their ability to be actively involved in SPM and SQA, after the completion of their studies, becomes further improved. In this paper, we discuss experience of teaching SPM and SQA at one particular institution in Islamabad Pakistan. Using this as a case study, we underline the students perspective, highlight the inherent issues and suggest ways to improve the delivery of these subjects. Since, the issues are mainly generic, the aim is to provide discussion and recommendations to benefit a wider computing community in academia.

Loading Arbitrary Knowledge Bases in Matrix Browser

This paper describes the work done on Matrix Browser, which is a recently developed graphical user interface to explore and navigate complex networked information spaces. This approach presents a new way of navigating information nets in windows explorer like widget. The problem on hand was how to export arbitrary knowledge bases in Matrix Browser. This was achieved by identifying the relationships present in knowledge bases and then by forming the hierarchies from this data and these hierarchies are being exported to matrix browser. This paper gives solution to this problem and informs about implementation work.

Vision Based Navigation for a Mobile Robot with Different Field of Views

The basic idea behind evolutionary robotics is to evolve a set of neural controllers for a particular task at hand. It involves use of various input parameters such as infrared sensors, light sensors and vision based methods. This paper aims to explore the evolution of vision based navigation in a mobile robot. It discusses in detail the effect of different field of views for a mobile robot. The individuals have been evolved using different FOV values and the results have been recorded and analyzed.The optimum values for FOV have been proposed after evaluating more than 100 different values. It has been observed that the optimum FOV value requires lesser number of generations for evolution and the mobile robot trained with that particular value is able to navigate well in the environment.
