We review the definition of evolvability as it appears on the literature. In particular, the concept of software evolvability is compared with other system quality attributes, such as adaptability, maintainability and modifiability.

This paper incorporates a rich set of physical water quality attributes, as well as site and household characteristics, into a model of recreational lake usage in Iowa. Our analysis shows individuals are responsive to physical water quality measures. Willingness-to-pay estimates are reported based on improvements in these measures.

Image quality assessment is a difficult and complex task. Quality attributes have been used in the evaluation of perceived image quality in an attempt to reduce the complexity and the dimensionality. Recently, Pedersen et al. (CIC, 2009) proposed a set of quality attributes for the evaluation of color prints. In this paper we perform an experimental validation of these quality attributes to ens...

This article presents a filter-wrapper based feature ranking technique that is able to learn and rank quality attributes according to new cases of software quality assessment data. The proposed feature ranking technique consists of a scoring method named Most Priority of Feature (MPF) and a learning algorithm to learn the software quality attribute weights. The existing ranking techniques do no...
