  2. 1. Semantic Aspects in Software Development

    Author : Martin Blom; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Semantic integrity; contracts; software development; education; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis presents research on how to raise the quality of software by helping developers focus on semantic aspects during the development process. Our research has so far been concentrated on software design, impolementation, testing and maintenance, but we believe that the ideas are applicable to other phases as well. READ MORE

  4. 2. Empirical Evaluations of Semantic Aspects in Software Development
