This paper addresses the problem of providing automated assistance for assessing the quality of textual requirements from an innovative point of view, namely through the use of a decision- tree-based text classifier, equipped with Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools. The objective is to apply the text classification technique to build a system for the automatic detection of ambiguity in SRS text based on the quality indicators defined in the quality model proposed in this paper. We believe that, with proper training, such a text classification system will prove to be of immense benefit in assessing SRS quality. To the authors' best knowledge, ours is the first documented attempt to apply the text classification technique for assessing the quality of software documents.","PeriodicalId":136227,"journal":{"name":"Seventh International Conference on Quality Software (QSIC 2007)","volume":"208 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122053289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The detection conditions of single faults have been studied and used in areas like developing test case selection strategies, establishing relationships between faults and investigating the fault coupling effect. It is common, however, for programmers to commit more than one fault. Our previous studies on the detection conditions of faults in Boolean expressions show that (1) some test case selection strategies developed for the detection of single faults can also detect all double faults related to terms, but (2) these strategies cannot guarantee to detect all double faults related to literals. This paper supplements our previous studies and completes our series of analysis of the detection condition of all double fault classes in Boolean expressions. Here we consider the fault detection conditions of combinations of two single faults, in which one is related to term and the other is related to literal. We find that all such faulty expressions, except two, can be detected by some test case selection strategies for single fault detection. Moreover, the two exception faulty expressions can be detected by existing strategies when used together with a supplementary strategy which we earlier developed to detect double literal faults.","PeriodicalId":136227,"journal":{"name":"Seventh International Conference on Quality Software (QSIC 2007)","volume":"05 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129798322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Statistical structural testing has been proposed to address this problem. This testing method aims at building an input probability distribution to maximize the coverage of some structural criteria. Under the all paths testing objective, statistical structural testing aims at selecting each feasible path of the program with the same probability. In this paper, we propose to model a uniform selector of feasible paths as a stochastic constraint program. Stochastic constraint programming is an interesting framework which combines stochastic decision problem and constraint solving. This paper reports on the translation of uniform selection of feasible paths problem into a stochastic constraint problem. An implementation which uses the library PCC(FD) of SICStus Prolog designed for this problem is detailed. First experimentations, conducted over a few academic examples, show the interest of our approach.","PeriodicalId":136227,"journal":{"name":"Seventh International Conference on Quality Software (QSIC 2007)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114112238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing methods always assume that the ontology already exists. However, ontology construction itself is a big challenge and the construction of ontology for component retrieval has its own characteristics differing from general domain ontology, including the emphasis on functional semantics, the explicit instance set (i.e. semantic descriptions of all the components stored in the repository) and the explicit objective of characterizing components for retrieval. In this paper, we propose an incremental and FCA (Formal Concept Analysis) based ontology construction method. The feature of incremental ontology construction means a collaborative and interactive process with component providers to collect basic input/output descriptions of components. FCA with the extension of hierarchical-valued concept context is adopted to elicit concepts from original component descriptions to construct ontological hierarchy for functional concepts. After concept analysis, semantic representation of each component can also be filled automatically. So our method can alleviate the efforts of ontology construction remarkably and the quality can also be ensured in terms of the requirements of component retrieval.","PeriodicalId":136227,"journal":{"name":"Seventh International Conference on Quality Software (QSIC 2007)","volume":"119 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121740977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Whilst there has been some preliminary work examining coupling in a service-oriented context, there has to date been no such work on the structural property of cohesion. Consequently, this paper extends existing notions of cohesion in OO and procedural design in order to account for the unique characteristics of SOC, allowing the derivation of assumptions linking cohesion to the maintainability of service-oriented software. From these assumptions, a set of metrics are derived to quantify the degree of cohesion of service oriented design constructs. Such design level metrics are valuable because they allow the prediction of maintainability early in the SDLC.","PeriodicalId":136227,"journal":{"name":"Seventh International Conference on Quality Software (QSIC 2007)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115424381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their software components should run on platforms with stringent constraints on node resources. Developers often design their programs by trial-and-error with a view to meeting these constraints. Through numerous iterations, they manually measure and estimate how far the programs cannot fulfill the requirements, and make adjustments accordingly. Such manual process is time-consuming and error-prone. Automated support is necessary. Based on an existing task view that treats a WSN application as tasks and models resources as constraints, we propose a new component view that associates components with code optimization techniques and constraints. We develop algorithms to synthesize components running on nodes, fulfilling the constraints, and thus optimizing their quality. We evaluate our proposal by a simulation study adapted from a real-life WSN application.

However, the practice of TDD at the integration level is rare. In this paper, we propose a test-driven component integration approach with the support of UML 2.0 Testing and Monitoring Profile (U2TMP) that is also proposed in this paper. In our approach, automated integration-level test cases are specified using U2TMP before writing the glue-code that integrates components. U2TMP enhances UML 2.0 diagrams for specifying how test scenarios should be set up and how the integrated components are expected to interact under these scenarios. Test cases written in U2TMP can be automatically transformed into test artifacts that setup the test environment, generate test stimuli, and monitor the component interactions at runtime. These test cases serve as a guideline for writing the glue-code and a regression test- bed. With this approach, the software developers may produce glue-code of high reliability.","PeriodicalId":136227,"journal":{"name":"Seventh International Conference on Quality Software (QSIC 2007)","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124666572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
