This paper investigates the relevance and assurance of information and system quality as requirements for information systems success during disaster management. Despite the many examples of poor information quality and poor system quality, research on the relevance and assurance of these requirements is sparse. In order to design successful information systems for disaster management, a contex...

Many organizations are struggling between the fast delivery of new software and quality assurance. Software testing play a key part in the quality assurance of software systems. Formal testing techniques increase software quality and, at the same time, reduce software development cycle time. This article presents a methodology for the identification and definition of black box test cases based ...

Quality assurance in the technical documentation and translation process is a means of assuring both quality as a process and quality documents as a result of any quality processes implemented. The willingness to improve quality is the common desire of commerce partners and a project team co-operating in the production of a quality assurance manual, which is the topic to be discussed in this pa...

traceability is a basic requirement for the most of products from the viewpoint of governments and customers. it has base of quality systems and supports integration of supply chain information systems. this paper has presented a holistic model for supply chain traceability through structural equation modeling. this model will support recall of products, quality assurance requirements, improve ...

In the past decade multiple challenges arose from the method of software development [4, 4]. As described by Davenport, the development process needs an overhaul [4, 4]. Different disciplines, like project management, requirements engineering, the development of code or quality assurance have been investigated intensively, in order to improve the productivity of development. To obtain valid res...

Business system designers want to integrate heterogeneous legacy systems to provide flexible business ser-vices cheaper and faster. Unfortunately, modern integration technologies represent important integrationknowledge only implicitly making solutions harder to understand, verify, and maintain. In this paper wepropose a data-driven approach, “Semantically-Enabled Externalization of...

In this paper, we introduce a catalogue template as one of the building blocks for a repository of metrics. Particularly, starting from a conceptual quality framework, we thoroughly discuss a catalogue template for product metrics instantiating it with some Web metrics. A catalogue of metrics basically allows evaluators and other stakeholders to have a consultation and reuse mechanism, which st...

Most complex systems today contain software, and systems failures activated by software faults can provide lessons for software development practices and software quality assurance. This paper presents an analysis of softwarerelated failures of medical devices that caused no death or injury but led to recalls by the manufacturers. The analysis categorizes the failures by their symptoms and faul...

Performance and dependability requirements are key to the development of high assurance systems. Fault-based analysis has proven to be a useful tool for detecting and preventing requirement faults early in the software life cycle. By tailoring a generic fault taxonomy, one is able to better prevent past mistakes and develop requirements specifications with fewer overall faults. Fewer faults wit...
