  • Car accidents in Lebanon : automated prevention and detection, and improvement of emergency response time 
    Keyrouz, Karam (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2018-02)
    Nearly 1.3 million people die in road crashes each year and 20 to 50 million people are injured or disabled. This made automated car accident prevention and detection a topic of extreme interest worldwide. However, as of yet, the different systems that have been proposed and implemented, do not take underdeveloped countries into account despite their greater need. This is probably due to the fact that this problem is already hard enough to tackle without adding more constraints to it. In addition, these constraints have not been identified and lack of awareness regarding the importance of this ...

  • Investigating usability issues in ERP systems : the cases of multi-UI tasks and UI validation 
    El Hayek, Hanine (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2018)
    Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are vital for managing any modern-day business. These systems aim to facilitate an organization's work by automating and integrating all business information and processes. However, ERP systems suffer from many problems that may cause an implementation failure. Many of these problems are related to usability, which is affected by the complexity of user interfaces (Uls). Usability can be defined in terms of an end-user's efficiency, effectiveness, and satisfactions. A study was conducted in this thesis to inquire about the usability problems that ...
  • Towards an automated analysis of the quality of source code comments 
    Haddad, Mireille J. (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2017)
    Maintenance is the most costly phase of the software life cycle. The maintenance cost of a program is estimated to be over 80% of its total life cycle costs (Erlikh, 2000). Since most of the maintenance time is devoted to understanding the program itself, program comprehension becomes essential. Often, a large fraction of the maintenance time is spent on reading code to understand what functionality of the program it implements. An insufficiently documented source code can be challenging for developers to understand and maintain. A clear and concise documentation can help developers ...
