Mapping the OO-Jacobson Approach into Function Point Analysis

چکیده
Function Point Analysis measures user requested functionality independent of the technology used for implementation. Software applications are represented in an abstract model that contains the items that contribute to the functional size. When Function Point Analysis is applied to object-oriented software, the concepts of the development method have to be mapped into that abstract model. This article proposes a mapping of the use case driven Object-Oriented Software Engineering method by Jacobson et al. into the abstract Function Point model. The mapping has been formulated as a small set of concise rules that support the actual measurement process. Our work demonstrates the applicability of Function Point Analysis as a measure of functional software size to the OO-Jacobson approach. This supports the thesis that Function Point Analysis measures independent of the technology used for implementation and that it can be used in the object-oriented paradigm.

Function point analysis is useful to measure size of software projects in terms of functionality requested by user. The main advantage of function point analysis is that it is independent of the technology used for implementation. When we apply function points to object-oriented software projects, the concepts of development method have to be mapped into abstract models that contain functional ...

The object-oriented OO paradigm took its shape from the initial concept of a new programming approach, while the interest in design and analysis methods came much later. OO analysis and design paradigm is the logical result of the wide adoption of OO programming languages.

Using the fixed point method, we prove the generalized Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of the following functional equation in multi-Banach spaces:begin{equation} sum_{ j = 1}^{n}fBig(-2 x_{j} + sum_{ i = 1, ineq j}^{n} x_{i}Big) =(n-6) fBig(sum_{ i = 1}^{n} x_{i}Big) + 9 sum_{ i = 1}^{n}f(x_{i}).end{equation}
متن کاملSome Issues in Implementation of a Voltage Stability Analysis Function in an Energy Management System Environment
Over the last few years, the problem of voltage stability has received a lot of attraction from the power system community. This type of stability is now a major concern for utilities in both planning and operating conditions. Both static and dynamic aspects of the problem have been discussed and investigated by the researchers. The present paper concentrates on a Voltage Stability Analysis fun...
متن کاملSome Fixed Point Theorems in Generalized Metric Spaces Endowed with Vector-valued Metrics and Application in Linear and Nonlinear Matrix Equations
Let $mathcal{X}$ be a partially ordered set and $d$ be a generalized metric on $mathcal{X}$. We obtain some results in coupled and coupled coincidence of $g$-monotone functions on $mathcal{X}$, where $g$ is a function from $mathcal{X}$ into itself. Moreover, we show that a nonexpansive mapping on a partially ordered Hilbert space has a fixed point lying in the unit ball of the Hilbert space. ...
