According to the needs and characteristics of software quality comprehensive assessment, the author systematically analyzes the drawback of the loss of a large amount of effective information caused by the calculation in the fuzzy synthesis evaluation algorithm as well as the defects of distortion among the intermediate data transformation in the processing of multi-level extensive evaluation a...

This paper is about a model that describes the maturity of software products and their evaluation. The model is called the SCOPE Maturity Model (SMM). It is based on the assumption that different evaluation levels can be defined for software products. The model provides acquirers and users as well as producers of software a clear overview of the characteristics of product evaluation on a speci...

Traditionally, software quality is thought to depend on sound software engineering and development methodologies such as structured programming and agile development. However, high quality software depends just as much on high quality collaboration within the team. Since the success rate of software development projects is low (Wateridge, 1995; The Standish Group, 2009), it is important to unde...

The quality of the software design has a considerable impact on software maintainability. Improving software quality can reduce costs and efforts of software maintenance. Cohesion, as one of software quality characteristics, can be used as an early indicator for predicting software maintenance efforts. This paper improves Martin’s cohesion metric, which is one of the well-known and wellaccepted...

Software Engineering is a discipline in crisis, where late, over-budget and, most alarmingly , poor quality software is the daily reality. Software Measurement, the application of measurement principles to software products and processes, is becoming recognised as a potential solution to these problems. Of particular importance to the software community is the need to deene the characteristics ...
