Because of insufficient dialog control logic, they cannot manage nested and hierarchical dialog structures that users have come to expect from window-based UIs. We therefore present a framework that implements a dialog control logic capable of handling complex, nested dialog structures, and introduce a notation and an XML-based language for specifying such dialog structures. Key concepts are the encapsulation of multiple dialog steps in context-independent dialog modules that can be nested arbitrarily, and the specification of multiple device-specific interaction patterns for a single device-independent application logic. The framework allows black box reuse, leaving only the implementation of the application logic, the design of the user interface and the specification of the dialog flow to application developers.","PeriodicalId":145980,"journal":{"name":"Third International Conference on Quality Software, 2003.

Currently, the constructive cost model (COCOMO II) is the most popular tool for estimating software cost. It uses lines of code and function points to assess software size. However, these are actually implementation details and difficult to estimate during the early stage of software development. The entity relationship (ER) model is well used in conceptual modeling (requirements analysis) for data-intensive systems. In this article, we explore the use of ER model for the estimation of software cost. A new term, path complexity, is proposed. Based on path complexity and other factors, we built a multiple regression model for software cost estimation. The approach has been validated statistically through system data from the real industry projects.","PeriodicalId":145980,"journal":{"name":"Third International Conference on Quality Software, 2003.

A lack of testability of such software can badly affect test costs and software dependability. Testability analysis can be used to identify parts of software which are difficult for testing. In this paper, we propose the use of the static single assignment (SSA) form to transform source code generated from data-flow designs into a data-flow representation, and then we describe some algorithms to automatically translate the SSA form into a testability model. Thus, some metrics can be applied to the testability model in order to locate the software parts which induce a weakness of the testability.","PeriodicalId":145980,"journal":{"name":"Third International Conference on Quality Software, 2003.

Manual software testing can be an expensive, tedious and error-prone process, therefore testing is often automated in an attempt to reduce its cost and improve its defect detection capability. Model-based testing, a technique used in automated test case generation, is an important topic because it addresses the need for test suites that are of high-quality and yet, maintainable. Current model-based techniques often use a single model to represent system behavior. Using a single model may restrict the number and type of test cases that may be generated. In this paper, system-level test case generation is accomplished using two models to represent system behavior. The results of case studies used to evaluate this technique indicate that for the systems studied a larger percentage of the required test cases can be generated using the combined modeling approach.","PeriodicalId":145980,"journal":{"name":"Third International Conference on Quality Software, 2003.

This objective was accomplished by empirically testing the model with quantitative techniques. An earlier qualitative study provided a list of metrics, which were then tested with the quantitative study described in this paper. The results of this study are important as it identifies the metrics, perceived by stakeholders as essential for applying the software evaluation framework to software evaluation.","PeriodicalId":145980,"journal":{"name":"Third International Conference on Quality Software, 2003.

While most textbooks and research papers on cost estimation look mainly at the \"estimation\" phase, our framework and checklist includes the phases relevant to estimation: \"preparation\", \"estimation\", \"application\", and \"learning\". We believe that cost estimation processes and checklists should support these phases to enable high estimation accuracy. The checklist we suggest is based on checklists from a number of sources, e.g., a handbook in forecasting and checklists present in several Norwegian software companies, it needs, however, to be extended through feedback from other researchers and software practitioners. There is also a need for a provision of conditions for meaningful use of the checklist issues and descriptions of the strength and sources of evidence in favor of the checklist issues. The present version of the checklist should therefore be seen as preliminary and we want to get feedback from the conference participants and other readers of this paper for further improvements.","PeriodicalId":145980,"journal":{"name":"Third International Conference on Quality Software, 2003.

Instead, we must apply statistical methods to create an estimate based on a sample of test cases. Our goal is, given a fixed total number of test cases, to determine how to allocate these test cases among the partitions of the software so as to minimize the variance incurred by the maximum likelihood estimator of the overall software reliability. In contrast to fixed sampling models, where the proportion of test cases taken from each partition is determined before reliability testing begins, we make allocation decisions dynamically throughout the testing process. We compare the results from the dynamic test allocation model with the optimal sampling model and demonstrate its strength with respect to the variance incurred when the overall system reliability is estimated by its maximum likelihood estimator both theoretically and through Monte Carlo simulations.","PeriodicalId":145980,"journal":{"name":"Third International Conference on Quality Software, 2003.
