However, traditional performance testing is not in synch with this industrial practice. Traditional performance testing techniques consider program inputs as the only external factor. It ignores the performance influence of configuration options. This study aims to stimulate research interest in performance testing in the context of configurable software systems by answering three research questions. That is, why it is necessary to conduct research in performance testing, what are the state-of-the-art techniques, and how do we conduct performance testing research in configurable software systems. In this study, we examine the unique characteristics and challenges of performance testing research in configurable software systems. We review and discuss research topics on the performance bug study, performance anti-patterns, program analysis, and performance testing. We share the research findings from the empirical study and outline the opening opportunities for new and advanced researchers to contribute to the research community.展开更多

Thus it is inapplicable or unbelievable. To evaluate software maintainability objectively,the software configuration management( SCM) data are collected to establish a maintainability model. Based on the hidden Markov chain( HMC), a three-state maintainability estimation model is constructed. To validate the feasibility of the model,a real software example of software maintenance activity is given and the result from the example shows the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

The communication between PLC and force control was achieved by485 bus. This system have many functions such as recipe setup, burdening control, feed mixture, report printing, and remote alarm. The remote surveillance and control of burdening system were realized. The practice shows that the system had high precision and short cycle, and great control effect was obtained.展开更多
