Darwin-E: an environment for imposing regularity on object-oriented software
Regularity in this dissertation means conformity to unifying principles -- principles that affect every part of a software system, or, some significant and well-defined subset of its parts. Complexity of a large system can be reduced by incorporating some meaningful regularity into it. Regularity can be used to explicate structural aspects that were invisible otherwise. Furthermore, various thumb-rules of software construction, certain architectural patterns, and constraints underlying various design models can also be expressed as regularity.
An explicit and formal statement of the desired regularities therefore, can serve as a guideline to construct a well-designed software that is easier to understand and maintain. Strict imposition of these regularities on the other hand leads to a controlled evolution of the software, with a guaranteed conformance to its desired model and underlying guidelines.
Object-orientation is the technology of choice today for building large systems. We considered software development in Eiffel, one of the advanced object-oriented languages and showed that there are many cases where regularities would increase the comprehensibility, mangeability and reliability of Eiffel systems pal92 . However, neither the language nor its host environments has the infrastructure for formulating and imposing such regularities.
The paradigm of Law-Governed Architecture (LGA) provides the perspective needed for realizing regularities: regularities can be formulated and enforced as the "law" under LGA. We developed a prototype environment named Darwin-E that supports LGA for Eiffel. The novelty of the Darwin-E environment is its ability to perform compile-time enforcement of a wide range of useful laws, thus imposing desired regularities upon object-oriented (Eiffel) systems being developed in it. Several other aspects of a software project that benefit from LGA, such as controlling developer activities, configuration management and monitoring, are also handled in Darwin-E.
The main contribution of this dissertation is that it demonstrates the feasibility of using regularities as an integral part of object-oriented software construction. Besides, being an environment whose principal focus is the software product, Darwin-E complements the approaches taken by process-centered environments.Technical report LCSR-TR-27

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
