Abstract

Software Quality has been a major challenge throughout Information Technology projects. Whether it is in software development, in software integration or whether it is in the implementation or customization of shrink-wrapped software, quality is regarded as a major issue. In the last couple of decades, much software engineering research has focussed on standards, methodologies and techniques for improving software quality, measuring software quality and software quality assurance. Most of this research is focused on the internal/development view of quality. More recent studies have made attempts to understand the stakeholder view of quality. With globalisation, many new challenges affect software quality. Not only do we need to understand the many stakeholder views of quality, we now need to consider the cultural issues, and the outsourcing issues. The Sixth Workshop on Software Quality aims to bring together academic, industrial and commercial communities interested in software quality topics to discuss the different technologies being defined and used in the software quality area.

Factors affecting effective software quality management revisited

Developing a good software system is a very complex task. In order to produce a good software product, several measures for software quality attributes need to be taken into account. System complexity measurement plays a vital role in controlling and ...
Monitoring Software Quality Evolution for Defects

Quality control charts, especially c-charts, can help monitor software quality evolution for defects over time. c-charts of the Eclipse and Gnome systems showed that for systems experiencing active maintenance and updates, quality evolution is ...
