Refactoring to patterns allows software designers to safely move their designs towards specific design patterns by applying multiple low-level refactorings. There are many different refactoring to pattern techniques, each with a particular purpose and a varying effect on software quality attributes.

A target-based MADM method covers beneficial and non-beneficial attributes besides target values for some attributes. Such techniques are considered as the comprehensive forms of MADM approaches. Target-based MADM methods can also be used in traditional decision-making problems in which beneficial and non-beneficial attributes only exist. In many practical selection problems, some attributes ha...

This paper addresses the need for a manageable method of evaluating the overall image quality of hardcopy output from printer systems so that the systems can be compared in a meaningful way. Image quality metrics are widely used and are very objective, but are unsuitable for this purpose because there is no good way of extracting overall image quality from the large number of possible metrics. ...

Business to consumer m-commerce services are here to stay. Their specifics, as software artifacts, indicate that they are primarily and most importantly user-driven; as such user perceived quality assessment should be an integral part of their design process. Mobile design processes still lack a formal and systematic quality control method. This paper explores m-commerce quality attributes usin...
