One of the main objectives of developing component-based software systems is to enable efficient building of systems through the integration of components. All component models def...
How do design decisions impact the quality of the resulting software? In an empirical study of 52 ECLIPSE plug-ins, we found that the software design as well as past failure histo...
Defect density and defect prediction are essential for efficient resource allocation in software evolution. In an empirical study we applied data mining techniques for value seri...
During the past ten years, a large number of quality models have been proposed in the literature. In general, the goal of these models is to predict a quality factor starting from...
