Title

Learning software artefacts from examples using genetic programming

Abstract

Over the past decades, the software engineering research community has made significant advances in automating software development and maintenance tasks. This was achieved thanks to the accumulation of knowledge produced by many clusters of researchers working on general-purpose artefacts such as automatic generation of test data, refactoring, program repair or feature location. However, automating domain-specific tasks did not benefit from the same critical masses of researchers. This is particularly the case of manipulating models described with domain-specific languages or domain-specific code libraries (APIs) usage. In this presentation, we discuss the use of genetic programming to transform data or examples of a specific domain into knowledge to automate the development and maintenance tasks of that domain.

Title

On Intelligent Combinatorial Decision Making

Keyword

Combinatorial decision, Skyline model, Group Pareto dominance, Relaxation, Fuzzy preferences

Abstract

Short Description: In many real-life applications (e.g., groups recommendation, investments selection, detection of fire/crime-most dangerous places, expert teams selection, etc.), users do not only require analyzing individual objects but also groups of objects to make decisions. Skyline paradigm is one of the most popular and useful approach for multi-criteria data analysis and decision-making. It aims at identifying a set of skyline points that are not dominated in Pareto sense by any other point in a dataset. In the recent two decades, the skyline definition has been extended with different variants and the skyline computation problem for finding the skyline of a given dataset has been studied extensively. One important problem that has been surprisingly neglected to the large extent is the need to find groups of points that are not dominated by others as many real-world applications may require the selection of a group of points. In this talk, we focus on extending the skyline model to the combinatorial context to deal with group skyline set, i.e., groups that are not dominated by any other group in a given dataset. We present the recent developments on group skyline both from the semantic and computational sides. We also tackle explicitly the important issue related to controlling the size of group skyline. Some open challenges on the topic are discussed as well.

Title

Decision-Making Support of Industries in the world of Data and Transitions

Keyword

Industry 4.0, Real-time, Online Scheduling, Data, Decision-making.

Abstract

In the era of steady and rapid transitions of technology and society interconnectivity, industries are in an environment of continuing transformations. This profound and constant process of transformation is multifaceted: the production and the manufacturing process, the product creation, the market emerging, the client’s interaction and data management. This work focuses on the two fields of industries which are textile and healthcare. A review will be done on recent trends of the technologies transition, coupling with the transition in client’s consumption behaviors. The different visions and strategies in governmental levels around the worlds will be also stated. Facing the imminent changes, one can highlight the impact on the large and complex flow of information’s. We propose in this work three large approach which impact decision from strategical level to operational level. The work tends to pave the understanding on the impact of data to global vision to real-time decision. Second, we propose three approaches for industry of the future. The first one is the novel Network of Supply Systems (NSS) where the classic supply chain become supply system that considers of the non-linear elements. The NSS takes the interconnectivities as evidence to provide a new point of view of the position of each industry in a larger and connected network of value chains. The second one the Process – Product – Market (PPM) approach where the three elements are active and takes part in the decision in the circular way. The third approach is on the data strategy where we identify the value and the diversity of data. With the three mentioned approaches, we come up with the real time decision in an environment that we have a complete information, a partial information, or no information. That leads to the fields of online and semionline scheduling. We introduce the notation of valuable and valueless information in production, that could be helpful in the case of identifying non-adding value activities in the value chains. In addition, to support the PPM approach, we present in this work our recent research on the smart pricing problem. We close the work with a roadmap to Industries in the world of Data and Transitions.
