Download or read book Candidate reuse metrics for object oriented and Ada software written by Santhi Karunanithi and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "Reuse of existing software components plays an important role in increasing the quality of software products and the productivity of software development. The measurement of levels of software reuse is necessary to monitor improvements in software reuse. This paper presents a set of measurable reuse attributes appropriate to object oriented systems, and a suite of metrics which quantify these attributes. Metrics suitable for the object based language Ada are identified and a prototype measurement tool design is proposed."

Book excerpt: Software quality is a generalised statement difficult to agree or disagree with until a precise definition of the concept of "Software Quality" is reached in terms of measurable quantities. Unfortunately, for the software technology the basic question of: • what to measure; • how to measure; • when to measure; • how to deal with the data obtained are still unanswered and are also closely dependant on the field of application. In the past twenty years or more there have been a number of conferences and debates focusing on the concept of Software Quality, which produced no real industrial impact. Recently, however, the implementation of a few generic standards (ISO 9000, IEEE etc.) has produced and improved application of good practice principles at the industrial level. As a graduate in PhYSiCS, I still believe it is a long way before the concept of Software Quality can be defined exactly and measured, if ever. This is way I think the AQuIS series of conferences is important, its object begin to provide a platform for the transfer of technology and know how between Academic, Industrial and Research Institutions, in the field of Software Quality. Their objects are: • to provide a forum for the introduction and discussion of new research breakthroughs in Software Quality; • to provide professional Software Quality engineers with the necessary exposure to the results of current research; • to expose the research community to the problems of practical application of new results.

Download or read book OOIS 95 written by John Murphy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OOIS'95 (Object-Oriented Information Systems '95) contains contributions from leading researchers and practitioners working on object oriented technology and its application in information systems design and development. The book has a strong practical focus and contains much technical insight of particular relevance to professionals working in the field. The papers cover two main areas of the field: academic research trends into object oriented concepts and principles, and state of the art applications in industry. Among the specific topics covered are modelling, knowledgebases, software development, interface design, object databases, distributed databases, and emerging object technologies. All those working in the field of information technology will find the book a useful source of reference.
Download or read book Proceedings written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a May 1993 symposium in Baltimore, 15 papers explore measurement in software engineering. Among the topics are inter- item correlations among function points, maintenance metrics for the object oriented paradigm, and dynamic system complexity. The case studies include determining the value of a corporate reuse program, and the validation of structure metrics. No subject index. Acidic paper.

Download or read book Foundations of Empirical Software Engineering written by Barry Boehm and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-05-13 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although software engineering can trace its beginnings to a NATO conf- ence in 1968, it cannot be said to have become an empirical science until the 1970s with the advent of the work of Prof. Victor Robert Basili of the University of Maryland. In addition to the need to engineer software was the need to understand software. Much like other sciences, such as physics, chemistry, and biology, software engineering needed a discipline of obs- vation, theory formation, experimentation, and feedback. By applying the scientific method to the software engineering domain, Basili developed concepts like the Goal-Question-Metric method, the Quality-Improvement- Paradigm, and the Experience Factory to help bring a sense of order to the ad hoc developments so prevalent in the software engineering field. On the occasion of Basili’s 65th birthday, we present this book c- taining reprints of 20 papers that defined much of his work. We divided the 20 papers into 6 sections, each describing a different facet of his work, and asked several individuals to write an introduction to each section. Instead of describing the scope of this book in this preface, we decided to let one of his papers, the keynote paper he gave at the International C- ference on Software Engineering in 1996 in Berlin, Germany to lead off this book. He, better than we, can best describe his views on what is - perimental software engineering.

Book excerpt: Improving Software Practice Case Experiences Edited by Colin Tully Colin Tully Associates, UK The software process is a business-critical process for many organizations. For them, improving software practice is both an imperative and a continuing challenge, to achieve success and even survival. This applies whether the organization develops software as its main business, embeds software in its products, or depends on software to underpin its business operations. This book presents case histories of eight very different organizations, each engaged in improving its software practice. Each organization has made its own individual evaluation of where its improvement priority lies, but they all share common experiences of what must be done in order to succeed in improving practice. Any software manager or practitioner facing the need for improvement will learn from these real-life stories, recounted by those who have been there already, seen the opportunities, and struggled with the problems. No two companies are the same, or should adopt a standard approach; but there are common lessons to be shared, and this book exposes many of those common lessons in a way that is both readable and convincing. This book documents the following: * Eight case studies that give an insight into software process improvement in the business environment * Experience from various aspects of software process improvement * Coverage of all parts of the complete software lifecycle. Produced and funded within the framework of the ESSI initiative of the European Commission is Programme.
