Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA HYBRID INTELLIGENT MODEL FOR SOFTWARE COST ESTIMATIONWei Lin Du, Luiz Fernando Capretz, Ali Bou Nassif, Danny HoAccurate software development effort estimation is critical to the success of software projects. Although many techniques and algorithmic models have been developed and implemented by practitioners, accurate software development effort prediction is still a challenging endeavor in the field of software engineering, especially in handling uncertain and imprecise inputs and collinear characteristics. In this study, a hybrid intelligent model combining … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 28 Sep 2013 · 7,748 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Ensemble Prediction Algorithms for Detecting Faulty Modules in Object Oriented Systems Using Quality MetricsM. Punithavalli, C. NeelamegamThe high usage of software system poses high quality demand from users, which results in increased software complexity. To address these complexities, software quality engineering methods should be updated accordingly and enhance their quality assuring methods. Fault prediction, a sub-task of SQE, is designed to solve this issue and provide a strategy to identify faulty parts of a program, so … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 20 Dec 2012 · 6,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Methodological Framework for Software Safety in Safety Critical Computer SystemsP. V. Srinivas Acharyulu, P. SeetharamaiahSoftware safety must deal with the principles of safety management, safety engineering and software engineering for developing safety-critical computer systems, with the target of making the system safe, risk-free and fail-safe in addition to provide a clarified differentaition for assessing and evaluating the risk, with the principles of software risk management. Problem statement: Prevailing software quality models, standards were not … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 16 Aug 2012 · 7,659 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of Knowledge Management Process Practices in Very Small Software CompaniesShuib Basri, Rory V. O’ConnorProblem statement: Software development is distinct from other types of engineering because the product is intangible, progress is not explicit and team members rely on the documentation of others to review progress. In addition, there are no standard processes, which make it difficult to predict which process will cause development problems. The discourse of knowledge management is becoming more evident … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 6 Mar 2012 · 8,199 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of Mashup as a Software Application Development Technique with Examples from an End-User Programming PerspectiveLiu Na, Ahmed Patel, Rodziah Latih et al.The purpose of this study is to present, introduce and explain the principles, concepts and techniques of mashups through an analysis of mashup tools from End-user Development (EuD) software engineering perspectives, since it is a new programming paradigm. Problem statement: Although mashup tools supporting the creation of mashups rely heavily on data integration, they still require users to have reasonable … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 2 Nov 2010 · 8,429 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInitial Hybrid Method for Analyzing Software Estimation, Benchmarking and Risk Assessment Using Design of SoftwareJ. Frank Vijay, C. ManoharanProblem statement: Estimation models in software engineering are used to predict some important attributes of future entities such as development effort, software reliability and programmers productivity. Among these models, those estimating software effort have motivated considerable research in recent years. Approach: In this study we discussed an available work on the effort estimation methods and also proposed a hybrid method … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 6,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSecured Requirement Specification Framework (SRSF)R.A. Khan, K. MustafaGenerally, software engineers are poorly trained to elicit, analyze and specify security requirements, often confusing them with the architectural security mechanisms that are traditionally used to fulfill them. One of the most ignored parts of a security-enhanced software development lifecycle is the security requirements engineering process. Security should begin at the requirements level and must cover both overt functional security … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,883 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSecurity Policy Development: Towards a Life-Cycle and Logic-Based Verification ModelLuay A. Wahsheh, Jim Alves-FossAlthough security plays a major role in the design of software systems, security requirements and policies are usually added to an already existing system, not created in conjunction with the product. As a result, there are often numerous problems with the overall design. In this paper, we discuss the relationship between software engineering, security engineering, and policy engineering and present … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,343 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesizing Behavioral Model of Event-Based RequirementsSeyyed M. BabamirProblem Statement: in the software engineering field, satisfaction of user's requirements by software has been a matter of concern. Therefore, monitoring software behavior against user's high-level requirements has already received a considerable and significant attention. However, the gap between low-level software behavior and high-level requirements has put an obstacle in the way of monitoring. Approach: to overcome the obstacle, we … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Integrated Quantitative Assessment Model For Usability EngineeringHaidar S. Jabbar, T. V. Gopal, Sattar J. AboudMany different quantitative assessment models have been proposed to measure and report the usability of a general software product for various business and design purposes. However, there are several problems coupled with existing models that consequently bias and affect the process and results of the usability assessment. Moreover, they do not aid their usage by analysts who are not experienced … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,706 accessesView PDFCite
