    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; failures; usage based testing; usage model; statistical testing; faults; capture-recapture; inspections; software quality; software reliability; experiments; Computer science; numerical analysis; systems; control; Datalogi; numerisk analys; system; kontroll;

    Abstract : In software engineering, the quality of software and in particular the software reliability has to be controlled and improved. Hence there is a need for measuring and controlling the number and appearance of software faults and failures. READ MORE

  6. 4. Supporting Software Inspections through Fault Content Estimation and Effectiveness Analysis

    Author : Håkan Ahrefors; Institutionen för datavetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Software Engineering; Fault Content Estimation; Capture-Recapture; Telecommunication engineering; Software Inspection; Inspection Effectiveness; Telekommunikationsteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis is focused on methods to improve software inspections. Software inspections is a method used to increase and assure software quality by carefully scrutinizing software artefacts throughout the development. Inspections improve product quality through the detection and removal of faults, i.e. READ MORE

  7. 5. The rough journey to access health care : the case of leishmaniasis in the Bolivian rainforest

    Author : Daniel V. Eid Rodríguez; Miguel San Sebastián; Isabel Goicolea; Anna-Karin Hurtig; John Porter; Umeå universitet; []
