In both methodologies, software changes are inevitable due to the dynamic nature of the software development project itself. One of the factors that influences the effectiveness of the change acceptance decision is the accuracy of the change effort estimation. There are two current models that have been widely used to estimate change effort which are algorithmic and non-algorithmic models. The algorithmic model is known for its formal and structural way of estimation and best suited for Traditional methodology. While non-algorithmic model is widely adopted for Agile methodology of software projects due to its easiness and requires less work in term of effort predictability. Nevertheless, none of the existing change effort estimation models are proven to suit both, Traditional and Agile methodology. Thus, this paper proposes an algorithmic-based change effort estimation model that uses change impact analysis method which is applicable for both Traditional and Agile methodologies. The proposed model uses a current selected change impact analysis method for software development phase which is the SDP-CIAF (Software Development Phase-Change Impact Analysis Framework). The proposed model is evaluated through an extensive experimental validation using case scenarios of six real Traditional and Agile methodologies software projects. The evaluation results confirmed the applicability for both Traditional and Agile methodologies.","PeriodicalId":339123,"journal":{"name":"2016 23rd Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference (APSEC)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114078270","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 goal-oriented approach normally reduces the adaptation planning as a global optimization process and leaves the system the task of determining the actions required to achieve the goals. However, the high computation cost of global optimization prevents a self-adaptive system from quickly adjusting itself to the dynamically changing environment at runtime, which is intolerable since efficiency of planning is of utmost importance in most self-adaptive systems. On the other hand, rule-based adaptation has the advantage of efficient planning process since it predefines the adaptation logic by rules instead of leaving the system the task of reasoning. To combine the advantages of both approaches, we propose a novel adaptation framework that can integrate goal model into rule-based adaptation to make user goals to be better satisfied efficiently. We have applied the framework to design a self-adaptive e-commerce website. Our experimental results show that the proposed framework outperforms both the traditional goal-oriented approach and the traditional rule-based approach in terms of adaptation efficiency and effectiveness.","PeriodicalId":339123,"journal":{"name":"2016 23rd Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference (APSEC)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125677656","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 FBD is one of programming languages that are used for programmable logic controllers (PLCs). PLC programs are repeatedly run within a particular scan time for every execution. Among the constituents of FBD programs, function blocks and feedback variables use the inputs and outputs of the previous scan cycle on which to operate. Researchers have recently developed an automated test generation technique that satisfied several structural test coverage criteria for FBD programs using symbolic execution. However, their work could not generate test sequences for consecutive scan cycle but test inputs for one scan cycle. Test sequences are essential for testing FBD programs that have function blocks and feedback variables. This paper extends previous work in the field by generating test sequences for FBD programs with function blocks in a fully automated manner. The key technique involves explicitly unwinding FBD programs and solving test requirements using an SMT solver. We conduct experiments on increasing the coverage of test requirements by unwinding cycles and evaluating the effectiveness of the test set using mutation analysis with several subject programs, including a real-world reactor protection system. The experimental results show that the proposed approach is able to generate effective test sequences for FBD programs.","PeriodicalId":339123,"journal":{"name":"2016 23rd Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference (APSEC)","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122609563","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}

However, agile software development (ASD) methods which emphasize selforganizing teams and rapid response to change have done away with the project manager's title. New job titles such as the scrum master and product owner have been introduced instead. It is unclear as to what extent the \"project manager\" is still encountered in the agile software industry. An online survey was posted out to agile special interest groups on popular social media platforms to discover the frequency of the job title \"project manager\" in agile projects. Analysis of the 97 responses from 31 countries around the world revealed that: a) the title of project manager is still widely used (67%); b) there is a correlation between the team size and presence of project manager such that there is a higher probability the project manager will be present in teams of 5-10 members and those over 25 members; and c) there is an inverse correlation between the co-location of a team and presence of project manager. Further research is needed to better understand why the project manager continues to be present on ASD projects and how their role may have changed.","PeriodicalId":339123,"journal":{"name":"2016 23rd Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference (APSEC)","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129180584","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}
