“…In this section, they are briefly explained and investigated to clarify their application during the SDLC. More information about these tools can be found in [Fos01], [Ish86], [Jay06], [Kan02], [Reg02], [Pyz01]. Check sheets are considered one of the Seven Basic Tools of Quality for improving quality improvement processes.…”

“…Table VII summarizes the applicability of Six Sigma during SDLC. More information about Six Sigma is provided in [Def05], [Hon03], [Kan02], [Reg02], [Wan10]. In the advanced literature on software engineering, there is a large number of very sophisticated statistical techniques for software quality; however, the scope of the Software Engineering Body of Knowledge Guide (SWEBOK) is the knowledge considered as generally accepted for most projects, most of the time, and with value recognized by a consensus in the peer community.…”

This paper presents an overview of quantitative analysis techniques for software quality and their applicability during the software development life cycle (SDLC). This includes the Seven Basic Tools of Quality, Statistical Process Control, and Six Sigma, and it highlights how these techniques can be used for managing and controlling the quality of software during specification, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. We verify whether or not these techniques, which are generally accepted for most projects, most of the time, and have value that is recognized by the peer community, have indeed been included in the SWEBOK Guide.

The tragic nature of safety-critical software failure's consequences makes high quality and extreme reliability requirements in such types of software of paramount importance. Far too many accidents have been caused by software failure error or where such failure/error was part of the problem. Safety-critical software is widely applied in diverse areas, ranging from medical equipment to airborne systems. Currently, the trend in the use of safety-critical software in the aerospace industry is mostly concentrated on avionic systems. While standards for certification and development of safety-critical software have been developed by authorities and the industry, very little research has been done to address safety-critical software quality. In this paper, we study safety-critical software embedded in airborne systems. We propose a lifecycle specially modeled for the development of safety-critical software in compliance with the DO-178B standard and a software quality assurance (SQA) model based on a set of four acceptance criteria that builds quality into safety-critical software throughout its development.

“…The usage of Metrics will reduce the subjectivity during the assessment of software quality and it provides quantitative basis for making decisions about the software quality [17] [26]. Metrics can also be used to recognize the duplicated code which can later be removed by applying appropriate refactoring [8] [27] [28].…”

It is difficult to understand, let alone improve the quality of software without the knowledge of its software development process and software product. There must be some measurement process to predict the software development, and to evaluate software products.This paper provides a brief view on Software Quality, Software Metrics and Software Metrics methods that will predict and measure the specified quality factors of software. It further discusses about the Quality as given by the standards such as ISO, principal elements required for the Software Quality and Software Metrics as the measurement technique to predict the Software Quality. This paper was performed by evaluating a source code developed in Java, using Software Metrics, such as Size Metrics, Complexity Metrics, and Defect Metrics. Results show that, the quality of software can be analyzed, studied and improved by the usage of software metrics.
