ISO 25010 describes software quality in terms of characteristics such as reliability, security or maintainability. In turn, these characteristics can be evaluated in terms of software metric values, establishing a relation between software metrics and quality. However, a general metric-based model for software quality does not yet exist. The diversity of software applications, metric definitions and differences between proposed quality models all contribute to this. Our paper proposes a longitudinal evaluation of the metric values and their relations in the context of three complex, open-source applications. We cover the entire 18 year development history of the targeted applications. We explore typical values for metrics associated with software product quality and explore their evolution in the context of software development. We identify dependant metrics and explore the effect class size has on the strength of dependencies. At each step, we compare the obtained results with relevant related work in order to contribute to a growing pool of evidence towards our goal - a metric-based evaluation of software quality characteristics.","PeriodicalId":420861,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Evaluation of Novel Approaches to Software Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130490072","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}

Our proxy-based technology requires no changes to the IoT software, while the model allows the user to define stateless or stateful types or fault patterns.

We propose a set of basic concepts for traceability, a reference model, and a comprehensive metamodel for traceability created using this reference model. The reference model defines: basic elements for traceability, basic actions to be done on artifacts, basic properties that sets of link types and artifact types should have, basic categories that should be realized regarding these sets, and basic set of processes for traceability. The metamodel is composed of a visual model defining how its elements interact, the definition and semantic description of link types and artifact types which realize the categories of the reference model, and a set of detailed processes describing the steps to maintain traceability and system consistency. Our proposal aims to reduce the problems identified; the reference model provides directions to help the creation, or evaluation, of a traceability model; the metamodel provides semantically described traceability link types, coverage of the most common situations, mechanisms to ensure consistency of traceability, and covers the most common activities in software development.","PeriodicalId":420861,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Evaluation of Novel Approaches to Software Engineering","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128264342","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 undoubtedly the case in railway signalling, especially the European Rail Traffic Management System/European Train Control System (ERTMS/ETCS). However, the complexity of the European standard specification, especially for its highest level, namely level 3, requires a significant overtake in early modelling approaches when it comes to clearly expressing system functionalities along with safety requirements, all towards a concrete safe design. In this regard, our research introduces a Colored Petri net (CPN) sub-class associated to an Event-B machine and annotated by mathematical sequences, which are ex-pressed in the B-language, all in the view of enriching the modelling techniques intended for system formal specification and verification. In this paper, we show through a detailed ERTMS L3 case study, how such featured CPNs fit in the progressive formalization and verification of Movement Authority (MA) computation.","PeriodicalId":420861,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Evaluation of Novel Approaches to Software Engineering","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134157605","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 general a model-based approach consists in extracting test cases from a formal specification either of the system under test or the environment of the considered system in an automatic fashion. Our framework is mainly built on the use of two formalisms namely Attack Trees and Price Timed Automata. An attack tree allows to describe the strategy adopted by the malicious party which intends to violate the security of the considered IOT system. An attack tree is translated into a network of price timed automata. The product of the constructed price timed automata is then computed using the well known UPPAALL platform. The obtained timed automata product serves as input for the adopted test generation algorithm. Moreover our framework takes advantage of the use of the standardized specification and execution testing language TTCN-3. With this respect, the obtained abstract tests are translated into the TTCN-3 format. Finally we propose a cloud-oriented architecture in order to ensure test execution and to collect the generated verdicts.","PeriodicalId":420861,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Evaluation of Novel Approaches to Software Engineering","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134112187","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}
