Abstract: This master thesis proposes concept and implementation of a microservice-based architecture for the Sweble Hub software. In future, with this microservice-based architecture, Sweble should be deployed in the cloud in order to manage a big workload from many users accessing the wiki. The th...

Abstract: Despite the lack of crucial features, Wiki Markup is still the primary data format in Wikipedia. The Wiki Object Model (WOM) features a modern alternative based on a tree structure. The use of a graph-based Storage for integrating WOM as the primary data format in Wikipedia seems likely. M...

Abstract: Representational State Transfer (REST) is an efficient and by now established architectural style for distributed hypermedia systems. However, REST has not been designed for more than short-term offline operations, yet many applications must keep functioning when going offline for more tha...

Abstract: Requirements elicitation is an important factor in software engineering. Mainly the information needed is elicited through interviews and other qualitative sources. The analysis that follows is often an ad-hoc process that relies on expertise of the analyst(s) and therefore is hardly repli...

Abstract: Design patterns are software design constructs defined and implemented using a programming language. What features of a programming language make the implementation of a wide variety of object-oriented design patterns easy? This thesis analyses Grace for its effectiveness in supporting dev...

Abstract: This paper presents the theory of User Experience (UX) best practices in software product lines. The methodology used to derive the best practices is case study research, which has been applied to two independent software product lines within Siemens AG, the German engineering company. The...

Abstract: The quality of the software requirements is vital to a project’s success, and the means of assessing the software requirements specifications quality are of high importance. This thesis presents a novel method of validation large requirements specifications using surveys. We developed a de...

Abstract: This thesis examines the power of modern NoSQL systems in conjunction with WOM to analyse and manage the article’s data of Wikipedia. The Wiki Object Model (WOM) is a machine readable semi-structured representation of markup produced by different wiki engines. The systems studied are nativ...

Abstract: Wahlzeit is a photo sharing and rating web application used for teaching at FAU. This thesis defines an API to Wahlzeit as a headless service which provides all necessary information to accommodate a wide array of possible clients.

Abstract: Domain-specific programming languages (DLSs) are widely used and are popular for mainly two reasons: improving productivity for developers and improving communication between developers and domain experts. Also, domain experts with little or no programming knowledge can program using DSLs ...
