Abstract

The paper focuses on measuring and assessing the relation of adaptive maintenance process and quality of open source software (OSS). A framework for assessing adaptive maintenance process is proposed and applied. The framework consists of six sub- processes. Five OSSs with considerable number of releases have been studied empirically. Their main evolutionary and quality characteristics have been measured. The main results of the study are the following:. 1) Software maintainability is affected mostly by the activities of the 'analysis' maintenance sub-process. 2) Software testability is affected by the activities of all maintenance sub-processes. 3) Software reliability is affected mostly by the activities of the 'design' and 'delivery' maintenance sub- processes. 4) Software complexity is affected mostly by the activities of the 'problem identification', design', 'implementation' and 'test' sub-processes. 5) Software flexibility is affected mostly by the activities of the 'delivery' sub-process.

评估自适应维护过程对开源软件质量的影响

本文主要研究开源软件自适应维护过程与质量关系的度量和评估。提出了一种评估自适应维护过程的框架，并进行了应用。该框架由六个子过程组成。对五个发行数量相当多的开源软件进行了实证研究。测量了它们的主要演化特征和质量特征。研究的主要结果如下:。1)软件可维护性主要受到“分析”维护子过程活动的影响。2)软件的可测试性受到所有维护子过程活动的影响。3)软件可靠性主要受“设计”和“交付”维护子过程活动的影响。4)软件复杂性主要受“问题识别”、“设计”、“实现”和“测试”子过程活动的影响。5)软件灵活性主要受“交付”子过程活动的影响。
