Drone-based surveillance has become widespread due to its flexibility and ability to access
hazardous areas, particularly in industrial complexes. As digital camera capabilities …

The reasonable construction of the organic Rankine cycle (ORC) system model under road
conditions is the key to analyze, evaluate, and optimize the performance of the ORC system …

Current software systems are inherently complex and this fact strongly complicates, and
makes more expensive, to validate them. Therefore, it is a must to provide methodologies …

Mutual Information is an information theoretic measure designed to quantify the amount of
similarity between two random variables ranging over two sets. In recent work we have use it …

Regression test suites can have a large number of test cases, especially automatically
generated ones, and tend to grow in size, making it costly to run the entire test suite. Test …

Finite State Machine (FSM) is used to solve problems in math, games, and practical skills by
making use of regions and transformers to model individual processing units and link them …

Software testing is fundamental to ensure the reliability of software. To properly test software,
it is critical to generate test suites with high fault finding ability. We propose a new method to …

Social media is increasingly being used to obtain timely flood information to assist flood
disaster management and situational awareness. However, since data in social media are …

Mutation analysis is extensively used for the comparison of state-based testing methods that
work from a finite state machine (FSM); In this thesis, we report on results from an …
