Background: Helm is a package manager that allows defining, installing, and upgrading applications with Kubernetes (K8s), a popular container orchestration platform. A Helm chart is a collection of files describing all dependencies,…
[Context]: Containerization ensures the resilience of distributed applications by Kubernetes. Helm is a package manager for Kubernetes applications. A Helm package, namely "Chart'', is a set of pre-configured resources that one could…
Planning quality assurance (QA) activities in a systematic way and controlling their execution are challenging tasks for companies that develop software or software-intensive systems. Both require estimation capabilities regarding the…
Deploying an application into a Kubernetes cluster requires sending a manifest file to the cluster's control plane interface. This action is typically performed through a kubectl client which is configured and authorized to communicate with…
Over time, software systems suffer gradual quality decay and therefore costs can rise if organizations fail to take proactive countermeasures. Quality control is the first step to avoiding this cost trap. Continuous quality assessments help…
Deploying models, especially large language models (LLMs), is becoming increasingly attractive to a broader user base, including those without specialized expertise. However, due to the resource constraints of certain hardware, maintaining…
The EU AI Act mandates that providers and deployers of high-risk AI systems establish a quality management system (QMS). Among other criteria, a QMS shall help verify and document the AI system design and quality and monitor the proper…
Quantum computers are currently accessible through a cloud-based platform that allows users to run their programs on a suite of quantum hardware. As the quantum computing ecosystem grows in popularity and utility, it is reasonable to expect…
The quality of training data has a huge impact on the efficiency, accuracy and complexity of machine learning tasks. Various tools and techniques are available that assess data quality with respect to general cleaning and profiling checks.…
Research data and software are widely accepted as an outcome of scientific work. However, in comparison to text-based publications, there is not yet an established process to assess and evaluate quality of research data and research…
Data quality monitoring is critical to all experiments impacting the quality of any physics results. Traditionally, this is done through an alarm system, which detects low level faults, leaving higher level monitoring to human crews.…
In our work, we propose to represent HTM as a set of flat models, or layers, and a set of topical hierarchies, or edges. We suggest several quality measures for edges of hierarchical models, resembling those proposed for flat models. We…
Context: Kubernetes is an open source software that helps in automated deployment of software and orchestration of containers. With Kubernetes, IT organizations, such as IBM, Pinterest, and Spotify have experienced an increase in release…
Research artifact sharing is known to strengthen the transparency of scientific studies. However, in the lack of common discipline-specific guidelines for artifacts evaluation, subjective and conflicting expectations may happen and threaten…
Defining strategies on how to perform quality assurance (QA) and how to control such activities is a challenging task for organizations developing or maintaining software and software-intensive systems. Planning and adjusting QA activities…
Image Quality Assessment (IQA) is important for scientific inquiry, especially in medical imaging and machine learning. Potential data quality issues can be exacerbated when human-based workflows use limited views of the data that may…
Trends such as cloud computing raise issues regarding stable and uniform quality assurance and validation of software requirements. Current QA frameworks are poorly defined, often not automated, and lack the flexibility needed for…
With the increase in multimedia content, the type of distortions associated with multimedia is also increasing. This problem of image quality assessment is expanded well in the PIPAL dataset, which is still an open problem to solve for…
Cloud computing recently developed into a viable alternative to on-premises systems for executing high-performance computing (HPC) applications. With the emergence of new vendors and hardware options, there is now a growing need to…
Human-centered artificial intelligence (AI) posits that machine learning and AI should be developed and applied in a socially aware way. In this article, we argue that qualitative analysis (QA) can be a valuable tool in this process,…
