CQE - An Approach to Automatically Estimate the Code Quality using an Objective Metric From an Empirical Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bugs in a project, at any stage of Software life cycle development are costly and difficult to find and fix. Moreover, the later a bug is found, the more expensive it is to fix. There are static analysis tools to ease the process of finding bugs, but their results are not easy to filter out critical errors and is time consuming to analyze. To solve this problem we used two steps: first to enhance the bugs severity and second is to estimate the code quality, by Weighted Error Code Density metric. Our experiment on 10 widely used open-source Java applications automatically shows their code quality estimated using our objective metric. We also enhance the error ranking of FindBugs, and provide a clear view on the critical errors to fix as well as low priority ones to

This paper presents a new multi-objective fuzzy stochastic data envelopment analysis model (MOFS-DEA) under mean chance constraints and common weights to estimate the efficiency of decision making units for future financial periods of them. In the initial MOFS-DEA model, the outputs and inputs are characterized by random triangular fuzzy variables with normal distribution, in which ...

In the relevant literature, there has been a lack of discussion to focus particularly on the relationship between entrepreneurship and international trade. It is more restricted when one intends to seek an interaction between international trade and the indexes of the 3A approach of entrepreneurship, including entrepreneurial attitude, activities and aspirations which are collected from Global ...
متن کاملEmpirical Correlations and an Artificial Neural Network Approach to Estimate Saturated Vapor Pressure of Refrigerants
The examination of available vapor pressure data in the case of the methane, ethane, propane and butane halogenated refrigerants, allowed recommendations of standard equations for this property. In this study, three new models include a general correlation; a substance-dependent correlation and an artificial neural network (ANN) approach have been developed to estimate the saturated vapor press...
متن کاملA New Empirical Model to Increase the Accuracy of Software Cost Estimation (TECHNICAL NOTE)
We can say a software project is successful when it is delivered on time, within the budget and maintaining the required quality. However, nowadays software cost estimation is a critical issue for the advance software industry. As the modern software’s behaves dynamically so estimation of the effort and cost is significantly difficult. Since last 30 years, more than 20 models are already develo...
