Quantitative Estimates of Debugging Requirements

A Quantitative Approach to Functional Debugging

Functional debugging dominates both development time and cost of modern design process. Two dominant debugging techniques are simulation and emulation. Neither of them provides an adequate debugging solution. Design simulation is two to ten orders of magnitude slower than functional execution with respect to the fabricated design. Design emulation and fabrication provide high execution speed, b...

Quantitative Aspects of Requirements Evolution

Requirements Evolution is considered one of the most critical issues in developing computer-based systems. Despite the recognised role of requirements in Software Engineering, Requirements Evolution still remains a phenomenon little understood from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives. This paper investigates our ability to understand the Requirements Evolution Process by means of met...

Modelling and Analysis of Quantitative Quality Requirements

Requirements engineering (RE) is concerned with the identification of stakeholders' needs concerning a future system, the specification of services and constraints that satisfy these needs, and the assignment of the resulting requirements to agents such as humans, hardware devices, and software components. Functional requirements describe what functions must be provided to satisfy the stakehold...
