This book explores various aspects of software creation and development as well as data and information processing. It covers relevant topics such as business analysis, business rules, requirements engineering, software development processes, software defect prediction, information management systems, and knowledge management solutions.

The objective of this book is to contribute to the development of theintelligent information and database systems with the essentials of currentknowledge, experience and know-how. The book contains a selection of 40 chapters based on originalresearch presented as posters during the 8th Asian Conference onIntelligent Information and Database Systems (ACIIDS 2016) held on 14–16 March2016 in Da Nang, Vietnam. The papers to some extent reflect the achievements ofscientific teams from 17 countries in five continents.The volume is divided into six parts: (a) ComputationalIntelligence in Data Mining and Machine Learning, (b) Ontologies, SocialNetworks and Recommendation Systems, (c) Web Services, Cloud Computing,Security and Intelligent Internet Systems, (d) Knowledge Management andLanguage Processing, (e) Image, Video, Motion Analysis and Recognition, and (f)Advanced Computing Applications and Technologies.The book is an excellent resource for researchers, those working inartificial intelligence, multimedia, networks and big data technologies, aswell as for students interested in computer science and other related fields.

This book presents the proceedings of the KKIO Software Engineering Conference held in Wrocław, Poland in September 15-17, 2016. It contains the carefully reviewed and selected scientific outcome of the conference, which had the motto: “Better software = more efficient enterprise: challenges and solutions”. Following this mission, this book is a compilation of challenges and needs of the industry, as well as research findings and achievements that could address the posed problems in software engineering. Some of these challenges included in the book are: increasing levels of abstraction for programming constructs, increasing levels of software reuse, increasing levels of automation, optimizing software development cycles. The book provides a platform for communication between researchers, young and established, and practitioners.

This book reports on recent advances in software engineering research and practice. Divided into 15 chapters, it addresses: languages and tools; development processes; modelling, simulation and verification; and education.In the first category, the book includes chapters on domain-specific languages, software complexity, testing and tools. In the second, it reports on test-driven development, processing of business rules, and software management. In turn, subsequent chapters address modelling, simulation and verification of real-time systems, mobile systems and computer networks, and a scrum-based framework.The book was written by researchers and practitioners, the goal being to achieve a synergistic combination of research results achieved in academia and best practices used in the industry, and to provide a valuable reference guide for both groups.

Agile methods are gaining more and more interest both in industry and in research. Many industries are transforming their way of working from traditional waterfall projects with long duration to more incremental, iterative and agile practices. At the same time, the need to evaluate and to obtain evidence for different processes, methods and tools has been emphasized.Lech Madeyski offers the first in-depth evaluation of agile methods. He presents in detail the results of three different experiments, including concrete examples of how to conduct statistical analysis with meta analysis or the SPSS package, using as evaluation indicators the number of acceptance tests passed (overall and per hour) and design complexity metrics.The book is appropriate for graduate students, researchers and advanced professionals in software engineering. It proves the real benefits of agile software development, provides readers with in-depth insights into experimental methods in the context of agile development, and discusses various validity threats in empirical studies.
