This project is to develop an on-line library to help software engineers who utilize design patterns for developing e-commerce applications it translates generic design patterns to concrete design patterns. The graphical user interface was developed to allow the user to develop their own design patterns by modifying or changing stored design patterns.

Scripting languages are extraordinarily popular due to their very flexible object model. Dynamic extensions (i.e., adding, removing and manipulating behavior and state) allow for the evolution and adaption of objects to context changes at runtime. Introducing this flexibility into a statically typed, object-oriented language would improve programmability and separation of concerns beyond the level of what one could usually gain with inheritance, mixins, traits or manually adapted designpatterns. They often lead to object-schizophrenia or the need for hand-crafted, additional management code. Although there were already attempts bringing flexible objects into statically typed languages with the benefits of an explicitly crafted core calculus or type system, they need their own compiler and tooling which limits the usability, e.g., when dealing with existing legacy code. This work presents an embedding of dynamically evolving objects via a lightweight library approach, which is pure in the sense, that there is no need for a specific compiler or tooling. It is written in Scala, which is both a modern object-oriented and functional programming language. Our approach is promising to solve practical problems arising in the area of dynamical extensibility and adaption like role-based programming.

The diploma thesis aimed at the study of the topic of communication protocols and several transmission modes, as well as ARQ (Automatic Repeat Request) mechanisms. Subsequently, the task was to design and describe individual scenarios for their simulation. As a part of solving the mentioned task, it was necessary to create an application that allows the emulation of the behaviour of communication protocols without the need for a transmission in the real network a nd the requirements for the edition of the source code. The application was created in the Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 development environment using the C# programming language and .NET framework and it consists of a library and a graphical interface. The output of the solution is the application of a mode simulator of the data transmission in the network with two scenarios with the prepared input situations in the frame of graphical environment together with instructions, additional tasks and sample solutions. The program allows the simulation of the behaviour of communication protocols between the client and the server without the need for a transmission in a real network. In conclusion, the simulator of data transfer was created in the form of the desktop application which contains two scenarios. The first scenario is used to simulate ARQ mechanisms and the second one is active in the simulation of commutation of messages, circuits, packets or cells.

To be able to understand characteristics and purpose of biological sequences correctly, it is crucial to have a possibility to sort and compare them. Because of this need and to extend existing knowledge pool, numerous methods were proposed. Especially in field of multiple sequences alignment. Methods for multiple sequences alignment may provide various valuable information about sequences which failed to show enough similarity in pairwise alignment. According to this, several algorithms were implemented in various computer applications which provide a way to analyse huge sets of data. One of those, the progressive alignment algorithm, is implemented as a part of this thesis

Performance is something that is always of concern when developing real-time 3D graphics applications. The way programs are made today with object-oriented programming has certain flaws that are rooted in the methodology itself. By exploring different programming paradigms we can eliminate some of these issues and find what is best for programming in different areas. Because real-time 3D applications need high performance the data-oriented design paradigm that makes the data the center of the application is experimented with. By using data-oriented design we can eliminate certain issues with object-oriented programming and deliver improved applications when it comes to performance, flexibility, and architecture. In this study, an experiment creating the same type of program with the help of different programming paradigms is made to compare the performance of the two. Some additional up- and downsides of the paradigms are also mentioned / <p>Det finns övrigt digitalt material (t.ex. film-, bild- eller ljudfiler) eller modeller/artefakter tillhörande examensarbetet som ska skickas till arkivet.</p>

This research is concerned with the modeling and development of algorithmic approaches for solving airport operational problems that arise in Air Traffic Control (ATC) systems within the terminal area at hub airports. Specifically, the problems addressed include the Aircraft Sequencing Problem (ASP) for runway operations, the Network Assignment Problem (NAP) for taxiway operations, and a simulation model for the evaluation of current or proposed ATC system in detail. For the ASP, we develop a mathematical model and apply the Reformulation-Linearization-Technique (RLT) of Sherali and Adams to construct an enhanced tightened version of the proposed model. Since ASP is NP-Hard and in fact, it is a variation of the well-known Traveling Salesman Problem with time-windows, sub-optimal solutions are usually derived to accommodate the real-time constraints of ATC systems. Nevertheless, we exhibit a significant advancement in this challenging class of problem. Also for the purpose of solving relatively large sized problems in practice, we develop and test suitable heuristic procedures. For the NAP, we propose a quasi-dynamic assignment scheme which is based on the incremental assignment technique. This quasi-dynamic assignment method assumes that the current aircraft route is influenced only by the previous aircraft assigned to the network. This simplified assumption obviates the need for iterative rerouting procedures to reach a pure equilibrium state which might not be achievable in practical taxiway operations. To evaluate the overall system, we develop a microscopic simulation model. The simulation model is designed to have the capability for reproducing not only the dynamic behavior of aircraft, but also incorporates communication activities between controllers and pilots. These activities are critical in ATC operations, and in some instances, might limit the capacity of the facility. Finally, using the developed simulation model named Virginia Tech Airport Simulation Model (VTASM) in concert with ASP and NAP, we compare the overall efficiencies of several control strategies, including that of the existing control system as well as of the proposed advanced control system. / Ph.

The objective of my MSc Thesis was to map over reasons, why are design patterns so popular in the modern information systems and other applications development. It is considering with the basic aspects of object-oriented systems, expounds the importance and structure of design patterns. The explication is followed by categorization of design patterns and in more detail is focused on the most frequently used design patterns including their contribution or complications, which could eventually occur. The advantages of design with design patterns are demonstrated on practical example of database application.

Package of modules for development with PHP is project aimed on simplification and efficiency of programmer's work when developing web based applications in scripting language PHP. This project is continuation of PHP Modular Object framework and wants to extend its connectivity to new modules. Next goal is implementation of modules which allow programmers to use the development system.

As programs continue to increase in size, it has become increasingly difficult to separate concerns into well localized modules, which leads to code tangling- crosscutting code spread throughout several modules. Thus, Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) offers a solution to creating modules with little or no crosscutting concerns. AOP presents the notion of aspects, and demonstrates how crosscutting concerns can be taken out of modules and placed into a centralized location. In this paper, a taxonomy of aspect-oriented programming, as well as a basic overview and introduction of AOP, will be presented in order to assist future researchers in getting started on additional research on the topic. To form the taxonomy, over four-hundred research articles were organized into fifteen different primary categories coupled with sub-categories, which shows where some of the past research has been focused. In addition, trends of the research were evaluated and paths for future exploration are suggested.

Managing the respiratory diseases could be hard for many patients. Usually patients use the inhaler to administrate medicine on a regular basis. Even though the inhaler guideline is well-accepted, most patients make mistakes. In the recent years, smart inhalers with sensors have shown a great potential of guiding the daily use of the inhaler and better understanding the diseases. KTH MedTech startup Andning Med AB specializes on developing smart add-on hardware device to the inhaler. This thesis work is the continuation of the prototyping of the embedded software for the add-on device. The main goal of the thesis work is to develop a robust software for the hardware device to guide the inhaler use in real time, and collect and manage the inhaler data. To approach the problem, I use the Finite-state machine modelling and the object-oriented programming mindset. After the software development and testing, all the designed functionalities are achieved. The user could be visually guided by the device. The inhaler data could be correctly collected and uploaded to the mobile device. The thesis work could serve as a basis for further embedded software development for the device that will end up in the smart inhaler market in the future. It could also give reference to the similar IoT device development. / Att hantera luftvägssjukdomarna kan vara svårt för många patienter. Vanligtvis använder patienter inhalatorn för att administrera medicin regelbundet. Även om inhalatorns riktlinje är väl accepterad gör de flesta patienter misstag. Under de senaste åren har smarta inhalatorer med sensorer visat en stor potential att vägleda den dagliga användningen av inhalatorn och bättre förstå sjukdomarna. KTH MedTech startup Andning Med AB har specialiserat sig på att utveckla smarta tilläggsutrustning till inhalatorn. Detta examensarbete är en fortsättning på prototypframställningen av den inbäddade programvaran för tilläggsenheten. Huvudmålet med examensarbetet är att utveckla en robust mjukvara för hårdvaruenheten för att styra inhalatoranvändningen i realtid, samt samla in och hantera inhalatordata. För att närma mig problemet använder jag Finite-state maskinmodellering och det objektorienterade programmeringstänket. Efter mjukvaruutveckling och testning uppnås alla designade funktioner. Användaren kan visuellt guidas av enheten. Inhalatordata kunde samlas in korrekt och laddas upp till den mobila enheten. Examensarbetet kan fungera som en grund för ytterligare inbäddad mjukvaruutveckling för enheten som kommer att hamna på marknaden för smarta inhalatorer i framtiden. Det kan också hänvisa till liknande utveckling av IoT-enheter.
