In this paper, we first show that the logistic testing-effort function is practically acceptable/helpful for modeling software reliability growth and providing a reasonable descri...
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...
— Portable, modular and extensible software allows robotics researchers to pool their resources by sharing algorithms, thus advancing research in the field of robotics at a fast...
In today's software engineering practices, building applications from components is the ongoing trend. What can be noticed however is that there really is not a clear consens...
Legacy applications are still widely spread. If a need to change deployment or update its functionality arises, it becomes difficult to estimate the performance impact of such modi...
