چکیده

We performed an empirical study of the relation between technical quality of software products and the defect resolution performance of their maintainers. In particular, we tested the hypothesis that ratings for source code maintainability, as employed by the SIG quality model, are correlated with ratings for defect resolution speed. This study revealed that all but one of the metrics of the SIG quality model show a significant positive correlation. Keywords-Software defects, Defect resolution, Maintainability, Source code metrics, Rank correlation, Issue tracker mining

An Approach to Optimize the Cost of Software Quality Assurance Analysis

In this paper we present an approach to optimize the cost of software quality assurance. It points out, how to optimize the investment into various software quality assurance techniques and software quality. The expected and reliable development of high quality software regularly becomes a major problem due to late removal of defect. The detection and removal of defect is a software inspection ...

Enhanced Cost Sensitive Boosting Network for Software Defect Prediction

plays an important role in reducing the costs of software development and maintaining the high quality of software systems. The early prediction of defectproneness of the modules can allow software developers to allocate the limited resources on those defect-prone modules such that high quality software can be produced on time and within budget. It is a great challenge to address the class-imba...

Measuring Open Source Quality: A Literature Review

There is an ample debate over the quality of Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) with mixed research results. The authors show that a reason for these mixed results is that quality is being defined, measured, and evaluated differently. They report the most popular approaches including software structure measures, process measures, and maturity assessment models. The way researchers have bui...

MR Protocols Breast Imaging

Compared with 1.5T, 3T imaging has the inherent advantage of providing a higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and higher resolution or faster scans, although there are trade-offs among these as well as certain limitations. 3T MR has a high specific absorption rate (four times that of 1.5T), decreased B1 homogeneity, longer T1 relaxation time, and increased susceptibility artifact. Despite these p...

Cost-sensitive boosting neural networks for software defect prediction

Software defect predictors which classify the software modules into defect-prone and not-defect-prone classes are effective tools to maintain the high quality of software products. The early prediction of defect-proneness of the modules can allow software developers to allocate the limited resources on those defect-prone modules such that high quality software can be produced on time and within...
