Software requirements selection aims to find an optimal subset of the requirements with the highest value while respecting the project constraints. But the value of a requirement may depend on the presence or absence of other requirements…
Software requirement selection aims to find an optimal subset of the requirements with the highest value while respecting the budget. But the value of a requirement may depend on the presence or absence of other requirements in the optimal…
Software Release Planning (SRP) is to find, for the software, a subset of the requirements with the highest value while respecting the budget. The value of a requirement however may, to various degrees, depend on selecting or ignoring other…
The existing software requirement selection methods have mainly focused on optimizing the economic value of a software product while ignoring its social values and their long-term impacts on the society. Social values however, are also…
Considering user preferences is a determining factor in optimizing the value of a software release. This is due to the fact that user preferences for software features specify the values of those features and consequently determine the…
Binary Knapsack Problem (BKP) is to select a subset of an element (item) set with the highest value while keeping the total weight within the capacity of the knapsack. This paper presents an integer programming model for a variation of BKP…
Web Effort Estimation is a process of predicting the efforts and cost in terms of money, schedule and staff for any software project system. Many estimation models have been proposed over the last three decades and it is believed that it is…
The purpose of this paper is to point to the usefulness of applying a linear mathematical formulation of fuzzy multiple criteria objective decision methods in organising business activities. In this respect fuzzy parameters of linear…
Demand for high software reliability requires rigorous testing followed by requirement of robust modeling techniques for software quality prediction. On one side, firms have to steadily manage the reliability by testing it vigorously, the…
A statistical, data-driven method is presented that quantifies influences between variables of a dynamical system. The method is based on finding a suitable representation of points by fuzzy affiliations with respect to landmark points…
Many cost estimation models have been proposed over the last three decades. In this study, we investigate fuzzy ID3 decision tree as a method for software effort estimation. Fuzzy ID software effort estimation model is designed by…
Probabilistic independence can dramatically simplify the task of eliciting, representing, and computing with probabilities in large domains. A key technique in achieving these benefits is the idea of graphical modeling. We survey existing…
One of the most important objectives of software engineering community has been the increase of useful models that beneficially explain the development of life cycle and precisely calculate the effort of software cost estimation. In analogy…
Autonomous robots must operate in complex and changing environments subject to requirements on their behaviour. Verifying absolute satisfaction (true or false) of these requirements is challenging. Instead, we analyse requirements that…
This paper examines attribute dependencies in data that involve grades, such as a grade to which an object is red or a grade to which two objects are similar. We thus extend the classical agenda by allowing graded, or fuzzy, attributes…
Relational query optimisers rely on cost models to choose between different query execution plans. Selectivity estimates are known to be a crucial input to the cost model. In practice, standard selectivity estimation procedures are prone to…
It is well known over the recent years that measuring the success of projects under the umbrella of project management is inextricably linked with the associated cost, time, and quality. Most of the previous researches in the field assigned…
In embedded control systems, the potential risks of software defects have been increasing because of software complexity which leads to, for example, timing related problems. These defects are rarely found by tests or simulations. To detect…
Relational representation of knowledge makes it possible to perform all the computations and decision making in a uniform relational way by means of special relational compositions called triangle and square products. In this paper some…
One of the significant objectives of software engineering community is to use effective and useful models for precise calculation of effort in software cost estimation. The existing techniques cannot handle the dataset having categorical…
