Development of Software Quality Assessment Model for Mobile-based Elderly Fall Detection Software

The purpose of this research is to build a software quality assessment model to evaluate the quality of mobile-based elderly fall detection software. The assessment is based on the quality factors found in the software quality model. The quality factor is adjusted to the characteristics of the software. The model is needed because the software has its own characteristics. This research consists of several stages. The first thing to do is analysing the software domain to determine its characteristics. The second is defining the software assessment needs by mapping software characteristics with the quality standards used (ISO / IEC 25010: 2011) to obtain the appropriate quality factors. The software quality metrics is determined after the quality factors is obtained. The metric to be used is Goal Question Metrics (GCM). The third is software quality weighting process, including its criterias and sub-criterias. Determination of the equation for software quality assesment is the final stage of the research. Based on the reseach process, it can be concluded that the model developed successfully can be used to assess the software.

Evaluation of information systems user interface by means of software quality`s models

The concept of information systems user interface quality has multidimensional content, which is difficult to isolate and measure due to the lack of a formalized model for assessing quality and terminological differences of quality indicators in standards. This work is aimed at finding solutions for using well-known software quality models in the interest of evaluating the user interface. The ratio of user interface assessment parameters to their presence in software quality assessment models is established; drawn regarding their evolutionary transformation are conclusions.

Software quality assessment model: a systematic mapping study

Quality model is regarded as a well-accepted approach for assessing, managing and improving software product quality. There are three categories of quality models for software products, i.e., definition model, assessment model, and prediction model. Quality assessment model (QAM) is a metric-based approach to assess the software quality. It is typically regarded as of high importance for its clear method on how to assess a system. However, the current state-of-the-art in QAM research is under limited investigation. To address this gap, the paper provides an organized and synthesized summary of the current QAMs. In detail, we conduct a systematic mapping study (SMS) for structuring the relevant articles. We obtain a total of 716 papers from the five databases, and 31 papers are selected as relevant studies at last. In summary, our work focuses on QAMs from the following aspects: software metrics, quality factors, aggregation methods, evaluation methods and tool support. According to the analysis results, our work discovers five needs that researchers in this area should continue to address: (1) new method and criteria to tailor a quality framework (i.e., structure of software metrics and quality factors) according to different specifics, (2) systematic investigations on the effectiveness, strength and weakness of different aggregation methods to guide the method selection in different context, (3) more investigations on evaluating QAMs in the context of industrial cases, (4) further investigations or real-world case studies on the QAMs related tools, and (5) building a public and diverse software benchmark which can be adopted in different application context.

A systematic literature review of open source software quality assessment models

Background Many open source software (OSS) quality assessment models are proposed and available in the literature. However, there is little or no adoption of these models in practice. In order to guide the formulation of newer models so they can be acceptable by practitioners, there is need for clear discrimination of the existing models based on their specific properties. Based on this, the aim of this study is to perform a systematic literature review to investigate the properties of the existing OSS quality assessment models by classifying them with respect to their quality characteristics, the methodology they use for assessment, and their domain of application so as to guide the formulation and development of newer models. Searches in IEEE Xplore, ACM, Science Direct, Springer and Google Search is performed so as to retrieve all relevant primary studies in this regard. Journal and conference papers between the year 2003 and 2015 were considered since the first known OSS quality model emerged in 2003.ResultsA total of 19 OSS quality assessment model papers were selected. To select these models we have developed assessment criteria to evaluate the quality of the existing studies. Quality assessment models are classified into five categories based on the quality characteristics they possess namely: single-attribute, rounded category, community-only attribute, non-community attribute as well as the non-quality in use models. Our study reflects that software selection based on hierarchical structures is found to be the most popular selection method in the existing OSS quality assessment models. Furthermore, we found that majority (47%) of the existing models do not specify any domain of application.ConclusionsIn conclusion, our study will be a valuable contribution to the community and helps the quality assessment model developers in formulating newer models and also to the practitioners (software evaluators) in selecting suitable OSS in the midst of alternatives.
