Quality Attributes in Practice: Contemporary Data
It is well known that the software process in place impacts the quality of
the resulting product. However, the specific way in which this effect occurs is still
mostly unknown and reported through anecdotes. To gather a better understanding
of such relationship, a very large survey has been conducted during the last year and
has been completed by more than 100 software developers and engineers from 21
countries. We have used the percentage of satisfied customers estimated by the soft-
ware developers and engineers as the main dependent variable. The results evidence
some interesting patterns, like that quality attribute of which customers are more sat-
isfied appears functionality, architectural styles may not have a significant influence
on quality, agile methodologies might result in happier customers, larger companies
and shorter projects seems to produce better product
Comments about the paper entitled "A generalized boundary integral equation for isotropic heat conduction with spatially varying thermal conductivity" by A. J. Kassab and E. Divo
An integral formulation for heat conduction problems in non-homogeneous media has recently been proposed by Kassab and Divo [Engineering Analysis with Boundary Elements 1996;18:273]. The goal of this communication is to revisit and clarify two key features of the formulation of Kassab and Divo. First, the contention that the integral equation formulation proposed by them does not possess the desired boundary-only character is made and substantiated; it is shown in particular that Eq. (10) therein does not hold owing to the fact that a crucial requirement for the fundamental solution, Eqs. (5c) and (5d) therein, is actually not met Second, the limiting process associated with a vanishing neighbourhood in connection with the particular kernel function used therein is revisited.

Information visualization to support management decisions
Information visualization can accelerate perception, provide insight and control, and harness this flood of valuable data to gain a competitive advantage in making business decisions. Although such a statement seems to be obvious, there is a lack in the literature of practical evidence of the benefit of information visualization. The main contribution of this paper is to illustrate how, for a major European apparel retailer, the visualization of performance information plays a critical role in improving business decisions and in extracting insights from RFID-based performance measures. In this paper, we identify – based on a literature review – three fundamental managerial functions of information visualization, namely as: a communication medium, a knowledge management means, and a decision-support instrument. Then, we provide – based on real industrial case evidence – how information visualization supports business decision-making. Several examples are provided to evidence the benefit of information visualization through its three identified managerial functions. We find that – depending on the way performance information is shaped, communicated, and made interactive – it not only helps decision-making, but also offers a means of knowledge creation, as well as an appropriate communication channel
Early Quantitative Assessment of Non-Functional Requirements
Non-functional requirements (NFRs) of software systems are a well known source of uncertainty in effort estimation. Yet, quantitatively approaching NFR early in a project is hard. This paper makes a step towards reducing the impact of uncertainty due to NRF. It offers a solution that incorporates NFRs into the functional size quantification process. The merits of our solution are twofold: first, it lets us quantitatively assess the NFR modeling process early in the project, and second, it lets us generate test cases for NFR verification purposes. We chose the NFR framework as a vehicle to integrate NFRs into the requirements modeling process and to apply quantitative assessment procedures. Our solution proposal also rests on the functional size measurement method, COSMIC-FFP, adopted in 2003 as the ISO/IEC 19761 standard. We extend its use for NFR testing purposes, which is an essential step for improving NFR development and testing effort estimates, and consequently for managing the scope of NFRs. We discuss the advantages of our approach and the open questions related to its design as well
