Literature ReviewOpen accessPhrase in the titleCombinatorial Interaction Testing of Software Product Lines: A Mapping StudyMohd Zanes Sahid, Abu Bakar Md Sultan, Abdul Azim Abdul Ghani, Salmi BaharomSoftware Product Line (SPL) is a software engineering paradigm that is inspired by the concept of reusability of common features, formulated for different software product. Complete testing on entire SPL is known to be unfeasible, due to the very large number of possible products to be produced, configured using a subset or all possible features in the SPL. This paper … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 20 Oct 2016 · 8,480 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Overview on the use of Ontologies in Software EngineeringDaniel Strmečki, Ivan Magdalenić, Dragutin KermekOne of the main goals of the Software Engineering (SE) discipline is to find higher abstraction levels and ways to reuse software in order to increase its productivity and quality. Ontologies, which are typically considered as a technique or an artifact used in one or more software lifecycle phases, may be used to help achieve that goal. This paper provides … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 12 · 9 Feb 2017 · 7,353 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparing Approaches for Quality Evaluation of Software Engineering Experiments: An Empirical Study on Software Product Line ExperimentsViviane R. Furtado, Henrique Vignando, Victor França, Edson OliveiraJrThe Software Engineering (SE) research area must provide results of a certain quality for the sake of value. High quality research results may ensure experience and knowledge, which are essential for the technology to be transferred to the industry. One of the means to obtain such quality results is experimentation. Experimentation is a scientific method that aims to provide evidence … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 10 · 25 Apr 2019 · 7,747 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Test Case Generation based on a Software Product Line for Model TransformationAlexandre Augusto Giron, Itana Maria de Souza Gimenes, Edson OliveiraJrModel-Driven Engineering (MDE) supports model evolution and refinement by means of model transformations at several abstraction levels. Validating these transformations is essential to ensure the quality and correctness of such models. However, MDE transformations become more complex to validate, for example, when they are implemented in different languages. One particular example is the transformation of the SyMPLES approach. SyMPLES is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2018 · 8,282 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparing SMarty and PLUS for Variability Identification and Representation at Product-Line UML Class Level: A Controlled Quasi-ExperimentAnderson S. Marcolino, Edson OliveiraJrAlthough variability management is one of the main activities of software product lines, current literature provides almost no empirical evaluations on variability management approaches based on UML. This paper aims at experimentally comparing two approaches and picks SMarty and PLUS as representative examples. Such comparison takes into account their effectiveness of expressing correctly and incorrectly variabilities in UML class diagrams. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 9 Nov 2017 · 7,455 accessesView PDF Cite
