This implies that all faults have the same effect upon the overall failure rate. The assumption is challenged and an alternative proposed. The suggested model results in earlier fault-fixes having a greater effect than later ones (the worst faults show themselves earlier and so are fixed earlier), and the DFR property between fault-fixes (confidence in programs increases during periods of failure-free operations, as well as at fault-fixes). The model shows a high degree of mathematical tractability, and allows a range of reliability measures to be calculated exactly. Predictions of total execution time to achieve a target reliability, and total number of fault-fixes to target reliability, are obtained. It is suggested that the model might also find applications in those hardware reliability growth situations where design errors are being eliminated.","PeriodicalId":262059,"journal":{"name":"Measurement and evaluation of software quality","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122223088","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}

In this paper, software design quality is emphasized. A general formalism for expressing software designs is presented, and a technique for identifying and counting software science parameters in design media is proposed.","PeriodicalId":262059,"journal":{"name":"Measurement and evaluation of software quality","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128089068","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}

We entered the 1970s with few truly on-line business systems, and many application designers did not fully appreciate the capabilities and limitation of index sequential file structures. Many of the larger companies were busy writing their own tp monitors and file handling systems, and it is very possible that more professional hours were being devoted to the development of control program software than to applications software.\u0000 The last decade did provide the application programmer with new control program tools such as data base management systems and on-line terminal control software. It also generated a continuing demand for computer performance software specialists to tune application systems immediately after initial implementation. These performance tuning efforts often required substantial changes to the application system - not just program code but also basic redesign. Therefore were these really system development projects or were they system research projects?","PeriodicalId":262059,"journal":{"name":"Measurement and evaluation of software quality","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121194496","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}

Besides that it is almost impossible to validate and verify code unless it is properly documented. Yet most of the attention of the past has been devoted to producing code and little to producing the documentation although it is obvious that it is necessary both for testing and maintaining the software product.\u0000 Software documentation can be classified according to its usage. Thus, there is a functional documentation for describing what a system does and what it is used for, and technical documentation for describing how the software is constructed and how it performs its functions. The former is directed toward the user, the latter toward the tester and maintainer. The two are, however, highly interrelated. Since the programmer seldom writes the user documentation it is necessary for those who describe what the system does, to know how it does it. An accurate technical documentation is a prerequisite for producing accurate user documentation. Finally it serves yet another purpose. Without it, it is not possible to control the quality of the software. Software Quality Control presupposes a full and up to date technical description in order to assess the characteristics of the system such as modularity, portability, reliability, etc.","PeriodicalId":262059,"journal":{"name":"Measurement and evaluation of software quality","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122903770","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 program chosen for the experiment computes a position on an orbit from the description of the orbit and the desired point.\u0000 Errors were interested in the program randomly using an error generation method based on published data defining common error types. Assertions were written for program and it was tested using two different techniques. The first divided up the range of the input variables and selected test cases from within the sub-ranges. In this way a “grid” of test values was constructed over the program's input space.\u0000 The second used a search algorithm from optimization theory. This entailed using the assertions to define an error function and then maximizing its value. The program was then tested by varying all of them. The results indicate that this search testing technique was as effective as the grid testing technique in locating errors and was more efficient. In addition, the search testing technique located critical input values which helped in writing correct assertions.","PeriodicalId":262059,"journal":{"name":"Measurement and evaluation of software quality","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132085014","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 have also been several attempts to independently validate these measures on data from different organizations gathered by different people(2). These metrics have many purposes. They can be used to evaluate the software development process or the software product. They can be used to estimate the cost and quality of the product. They can also be used during development and evolution of the software to monitor the stability and quality of the product.\u0000 Among the most popular metrics have been the software science metrics of Halstead, and the cyclomatic complexity metric of McCabe. One question is whether these metrics actually measure such things as effort and complexity. One measure of effort may be the time required to produce a product. One measure of complexity might be the number of errors made during the development of a product. A second question is how these metrics compare with standard size measures, such as the number of source lines or the number of executable statements, i.e., do they do a better job of predicting the effort or the number of errors? Lastly, how do these metrics relate to each other?","PeriodicalId":262059,"journal":{"name":"Measurement and evaluation of software quality","volume":"81 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122106992","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}
