In quality control charts, the problem of determining the optimum process mean arises when the deviation of a quality characteristic in one direction is more harmful than in the opposite direction. The failure mode in these two directions is usually different. A great majority of researches in this area have considered asymmet-ric cost function for processes with single quality characteristics....

This paper suggests a systematic orderly process based approach to stating software quality objec tives and knowing if and when they have been achieved We suggest that quality in software is a complex multifaceted array of characteristics and that it is important to establish speci c objectives along various software quality dimensions as requirements for software quality assurance determinatio...

Many software developing companies use Quality Gates to mitigate quality problems and to steer projects in time. The necessary structures, activities, methods, roles and documents can be encapsulated in a Quality Gate reference process, which then can be tailored to fulfill the needs of different projects. Each company has to implement a Quality Gate reference process individually because quali...
