To ensure quality, applicability, and usefulness of a product, development teams must spend considerable time and resources testing, which makes the estimation of the software testing effort, a critical activity. This paper describes a simple process, which we name qEstimation, to estimate the size and effort of the software testing activities. The process incorporates a proposed approach to measuring the size of the test case based on its checkpoints, preconditions and test data, as well as the type of testing. To investigate the practicality of the process, we apply it to estimate the size and effort of two outsourcing testing projects at a software company. In these projects, the estimates produced by the process are more accurate than those estimated by individual testers using their pure experience. This result indicates that our approach can be useful to estimating similar testing projects in practice.","PeriodicalId":296714,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software and Systems Process","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122417517","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}

One of the aspects not yet sufficiently addressed in literature is the sustainability of the software lifecycle. In this paper, we focus on the sustainability management of software development projects. In the practice, software development projects are managed by considering principally parameters as time, costs and quality of work products. We propose a methodological approach aimed at identifying sustainability indicators to be used in project management to set up sustainability objectives for a software development project, to control their achievement during the project itself and, possibly, to adopt corrective actions to maintain the project aligned with them. The availability of such sustainability indicators may contribute to reduce the carbon footprint of the activities performed in software development projects as well as to speed-up the development of a green culture in organizations developing software.","PeriodicalId":296714,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software and Systems Process","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114611708","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}

Each rule is a conjunction of a subset of attributes in a process execution, characterizing why the execution is normal or anomalous. The discovered rules can be used for stakeholder as expertise to avoid mistakes in the future, thus improving software process quality; it can also be used to compose a classifier to automatically evaluate future process execution. We formulate this problem as a contrasting itemset mining task, and employ the branch-and-bound technique to speed up mining by pruning search space. We have applied the proposed approach to four real industrial projects in a commercial bank. Our empirical studies show that the discovered rules can precisely pinpoint the cause of all anomalous executions, and the classifier built on the rules is able to accurately classify unknown process executions into the normal or anomalous class.","PeriodicalId":296714,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software and Systems Process","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115053240","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}

Global distance can give rise to incomplete requirements handovers which make the situation more difficult. It is important to address this issue as the end product is likely to deliver less business value when such problems arise. In this research, we propose a process to facilitate non-verbal communication among globally distributed requirements engineering teams. The focus of this research is the situation that occurs after requirements are handed to another site. Our proposed process endeavors to ensure that incomplete and conflicting requirements are identified and mitigated.","PeriodicalId":296714,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software and Systems Process","volume":"389 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134545983","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}

It is important to measure the processes that teams perform, in order to evaluate and improve new practices. Results from a mapping study categorizing the measurement methods applied to these processes identify the most popular approaches and the need for first degree observational methods. This paper describes a data collection technique for observing team processes. A case study performed with senior students is set up to validate the method. A questionnaire was submitted to participants to identify issues related to data accuracy. Illustrative analyses demonstrate that the episode measurement method can be used to observe team process patterns. The data from the questionnaire indicate that the method does not pose as a significant threat to the internal validity of a study, and that it is useful for observing the dynamic processes in which teams engage to resolve task demands.","PeriodicalId":296714,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software and Systems Process","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132829207","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}

Reduced time-to-market is a key response to competitive threats in the commercial sphere, and rapid response in deploying military systems may save lives in a geopolitical environment characterized by rapidly emerging and ever-changing physical threats. Agile/lean development methodologies show promise in providing the desired schedule acceleration, but it can be difficult for planners to determine the effects of these factors on schedule duration, and to make appropriate choices to optimize project performance. The Constructive Rapid Application Development Model (CORADMO) attempts to quantify the effects of key schedule drivers, and thus enable planners to estimate the relative schedule that will result from varying these parameters.","PeriodicalId":296714,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software and Systems Process","volume":"780 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126928154","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 the need to tailor a software process to specific project requirements seems to be widely accepted and unquestioned, the way of doing the tailoring remains unclear and is, therefore, often left to the expertise of process engineers or project managers. What are the criteria to be applied in the tailoring? What are dependencies between different criteria and how should certain criteria influence the software process? In this paper we investigate concrete tailoring criteria for the tailoring of software processes. To this end, we present a collection of 49 tailoring criteria as the outcomes of a systematic literature review. We further analyze the impact of the discovered tailoring criteria by relating them to a set of 20 exemplary tailoring actions, which affect the project-specific software process. Our outcomes show that the factors influencing the tailoring are well understood, however, the consequences of the criteria remain abstract and need to be interpreted on a project-per-project basis.","PeriodicalId":296714,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software and Systems Process","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131933819","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}

An effort estimation model expresses relationships between effort and factors such as organizational and project features (e.g. software functional size, and the programming language used in a project). However, software development practices and tools change over time, to environmental changes. This can affect some relationships assumed in an effort estimation model. A moving windows method (a method for treating the timing information of projects), has thus been proposed for estimation models. The moving windows method uses data from a fixed number of the most recent projects data for model construction. However, it is not clear that moving windows is the best way to handle the timing information in an estimation model. The goal of our research is to determine how best to treat timing information in constructing effort estimation models. To achieve the goal, we compared six different methods (moving windows, dummy variable of moving windows, dummy variables of equal bins, dummy variables of year, year predictor, and serial number) for treating timing data, in terms of estimation accuracy. In the experiment, we use three software development project datasets. We found that moving windows is best when the number of projects included in the dataset is not small, and dummy variable of moving windows is the best when the number is small.","PeriodicalId":296714,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Software and Systems Process","volume":"29 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115990816","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}
