Although the use of agile methods has grown in recent years, empirical studies conducted in industry identified several problems related to SRS in the context of agile projects. The goal of this study is to investigate the phenomenon of the quality of SRS in Agile Software Development (ASD) and build an explanatory model about it. We use a mixed method research strategy for creating a rich description of the factors that affect the quality of SRS in ASD. First, we conducted a systematic mapping study, then we performed a cross-case analysis of two software organizations: one small private organization and a large public organization. We built an initial model from this analysis. The findings were that SRS in agile projects should be directed to the development team, so it should be close to what will be implemented. The fragmentation of the description of the requirements in various artifacts and excessive detail were considered factors that compromise the quality of the SRS.","PeriodicalId":157671,"journal":{"name":"2016 10th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology (QUATIC)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115138495","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}

Although several modelling languages permit the representation of measurement uncertainty for describing certain system attributes, these aspects are not normally incorporated into their type systems. Thus, operating with uncertain values and propagating uncertainty are normally cumbersome processes and difficult to achieve at the model level. This paper proposes an extension of the UML and OCL types to incorporate data uncertainty coming from physical measurements or user estimations into the models, together with the set of operations defined for the values of these types.","PeriodicalId":157671,"journal":{"name":"2016 10th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology (QUATIC)","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115159230","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}

Towards the Online Testing of Distributed and Heterogeneous Systems with Extended Petri Nets 扩展Petri网在分布式和异构系统在线测试中的应用

{"title":"Towards the Online Testing of Distributed and Heterogeneous Systems with Extended Petri Nets","authors":"B. Lima, J. Faria","doi":"10.1109/QUATIC.2016.057","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/QUATIC.2016.057","url":null,"abstract":"The growing dependence of our society on increasingly complex software systems makes software testing ever more important and challenging. In many domains, such as healthcare and transportation, several independent systems, forming a heterogeneous and distributed system of systems, are involved in the provisioning of end-to-end services to users. However, existing testing techniques, namely in the model-based testing field, provide little support for properly testing such systems. To bridge the gaps identified in the state of the art we intend to develop a research work where the main goal is to significantly reduce the cost of testing distributed and heterogeneous systems, from the standpoint of time, resources and expertise required, as compared to existing approaches. For that, we propose a preliminary approach and a toolset architecture for automating the testing of end-to-end services in distributed and heterogeneous systems. The tester interacts with a visual modeling frontend to describe key behavioral scenarios, invoke test generation and execution, and visualize test results and coverage information back in the model. The visual modeling notation is converted to a formal notation amenable for runtime interpretation in the backend. A distributed test monitoring and control infrastructure is responsible for interacting with the components of the system under test, as test driver, monitor and stub. At the core of the toolset, a test execution engine coordinates test execution and checks the conformance of the observed execution trace with the expectations derived from the visual model. A real world example from the Ambient Assisted Living domain is presented to illustrate the approach. As future work we intend to develop distributed and incremental algorithms for online testing of distributed and heterogeneous systems based on Extended Petri Nets at runtime and validate them in real world case studies.","PeriodicalId":157671,"journal":{"name":"2016 10th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology (QUATIC)","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124739899","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}

Mobile robots are sold to millions of households and reached a reliability recommending them for professional environments as eHealth environments. Robots of today might not be designed for such demanding areas, but they evolve in this direction. For nontechnical users there is no advice available how they can test robots for their environment. Former studies indicated some areas which might be important to be tested, but at the end no concrete strategy to derive test cases or scenarios have been provided. A concrete generic test strategy is developed, starting with the advices derived from a literature study. The derived generic test strategy was then evaluated by using it for a concrete scenario. We used one of the most reliable household robots, the Roomba from iRobot for a challenging hospital environment. The evaluation showed that there is a high risk to miss out critical situations and that a generic test strategy could guide teams through an adequate definition of test scenarios.","PeriodicalId":157671,"journal":{"name":"2016 10th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology (QUATIC)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127626260","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 graphical representation of traceability information is very important to its effective use in those activities. Visualization tools can help in the interaction with large amount of data, in the identification of characteristics, patterns and trends. However, visualization tools are usually built for a specific domain, and generally support a single visualization technique. Therefore, they do not meet appropriately the needs of different contexts. This paper presents a tool to support traceability visualization that provides different visualization techniques, allowing the user to choose the most appropriate to his/her task; the evaluation results of the proposed tool are presented through two studies.","PeriodicalId":157671,"journal":{"name":"2016 10th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology (QUATIC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124367697","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}

There is an ISO standard adressing usability requirements (EN ISO 9241-11). However, its propositions are kept rather general and focus strongly on individual usage situations. Nevertheless, there are usability critera for websites that can be considered negative, e.g. bad contrast, a high readability index, or discrepancies between an expected user behavior and the users' actual behavior. Our system — AbRUPt — is able to capture a large number of such criteria automatically. By converting, modeling and developing a rule base in the semantic ontology language OWL 2 RL, a system is created that allows automated reasoning for potential web usability problems. This rule base will be presented in this paper.","PeriodicalId":157671,"journal":{"name":"2016 10th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology (QUATIC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125665122","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}

Nonetheless, the implementation of requirements related to adaptation, just as of any other kind of requirement, comes at a cost. In being so, it is necessary to consider requirements' priorities when creating such systems. In this work we analyze the relationship between requirements prioritization and software adaptation. In particular, the following questions are tackled: is the use of requirements-based adaptation frameworks somehow affected by requirements' priorities? Does the use of said frameworks affect requirements' priorities? Through an analysis of selected frameworks, we have found evidences that suggest positive answers for both questions. In this paper we present our findings as well as an initial proposal for interlacing prioritization activities with adaptation activities.","PeriodicalId":157671,"journal":{"name":"2016 10th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology (QUATIC)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131707181","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 main limitations of currently available quality approaches are limited extensibility, artifact specificity, and manual assessment. This paper proposes an approach supporting the definition of custom quality models consisting of hierarchically organized quality attributes whose evaluation depends on metrics specifically conceived and applied on the modeling artifacts to be analysed. A domain specific language is proposed to specify how quality attributes and metrics have to be aggregated. An execution environment is also provided to apply the defined quality models on actual modeling artifacts so to enable their automated quality assessment. Real applications of the approach are presented by defining and applying explanatory quality models suitably conceived to assess the quality of metamodels and transformations retrieved from public repositories.","PeriodicalId":157671,"journal":{"name":"2016 10th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology (QUATIC)","volume":"1997 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114191694","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}
