Abstract

Component-based software development is becoming more generalized, representing a considerable market for the software industry. The perspective of reduced development costs and shorter life cycles acts as a motivation for this expansion. However, several technical issues remain unsolved before software component's industry reaches the maturity exhibited by other component industries. Problems such as the component selection by their integrators and the uncertain quality of third-party developed components, bring new challenges to the software engineering community. By the other hand, the software components certification area is still immature and further research is needed in order to obtain well-defined standards for certification. In this way, we aim to propose a component quality model, describing consistent and well-defined characteristics, quality attributes and related metrics for the components evaluation. A preliminary evaluation to analyze the results of using the component quality model proposed is also presented

软件组件质量模型:初步评价

基于组件的软件开发正变得越来越普遍，代表了软件行业的一个相当大的市场。降低开发成本和缩短生命周期的前景是这种扩展的动机。然而，在软件组件产业达到其他组件产业所表现出的成熟度之前，仍有几个技术问题没有得到解决。集成商对组件的选择以及第三方开发组件的质量不确定等问题给软件工程界带来了新的挑战。另一方面，软件组件认证领域尚不成熟，需要进一步研究以获得定义良好的认证标准。通过这种方式，我们的目标是提出一个组件质量模型，描述一致的和定义良好的特征，质量属性和组件评估的相关度量。本文还对所提出的构件质量模型的应用结果进行了初步评价
