Problem statement: The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) published a set of international standards related to the software engineering, such as ISO 12207 and ISO 9126. However, there is a set of cross-references between the two standards. Approach: The ISO 9126 on software product quality and ISO 12207 on software life cycle processes had been analyzed to invistigate the rel...

The paper explores the relationship between UX and current approaches to usability in ISO standards, and how the ISO approach could potentially be extended to incorporate UX in guidance for product developers. Three approaches to usability are identified: 1. System Usability: Meeting organizational goals for user performance, safety and satisfaction resulting from interaction. 2. User Experienc...

ISO 26000 represents a new type of voluntary standard. This paper discusses key aspects of the diffusion and adoption of this new standard. We have surveyed experts who developed ISO 26000 and collected data on their perceptions of macro and micro aspects of ISO 26000. We find similarities between our data on ISO 26000 and studies on the adoption and diffusion of other standards. We have also i...

More and more miRNAs have been shown to regulate gene expression in the heart and dysregulation of their expression has been linked to cardiovascular diseases including the miR-199a/214 cluster. However, the signature of circulating miR-214 expression and its possible roles during the development of heart failure has been less well studied. In this study, we elucidated the biological and clinic...

ISO 9001 (ISO 1987) certification issues are bringing-out calibration anxieties. The rush to document calibration intervals for certification purposes is often driving-up costs. Both instrument manufactures and calibration services are benefiting financially from calibration anxiety brought on by “ISO systems requiring you to say what you do and do what you say to meet the ISO specifications”. ...
