  2. 1. Understanding, Measuring, and Evaluating Maintainability of Automotive Software

    Author : Jan Schröder; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Software Engineering; Industrial Case Studies; Empirical Research; Software Quality; Maintainability; Software Measurement; Automotive Software; Simulink; Software Architecture;

    Abstract : Context: The importance of software maintainability is well-addressed by software engineering research, in general. Particularly for object-oriented and open-source software, measurements as a means to represent maintainability are well-established. READ MORE

  4. 2. Supporting Software Architecture Evolution

    Author : Mikael Svahnberg; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Software Architecture; Software Evolution; Software Engineering Decision Support;

    Abstract : Today it is more a rule than an exception that software systems have a lifecycle of more than several years. Hence, software evolution is inevitable. During the life span of a software system the domain in which the system is working evolves and changes. READ MORE

  5. 3. Handling Combinatorial Explosion in Software Testing

    Author : Mats Grindal; Sten Andler; Yu Lei; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Input parameter models; software development; software testing; test process; Software engineering; Programvaruteknik; Technology; Teknik; Computer science;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the overall conclusion is that combination strategies, (i.e., test case selection methods that manage the combinatorial explosion of possible things to test), can improve the software testing in most organizations. The research underlying this thesis emphasizes relevance by working in close relationship with industry. READ MORE

  6. 4. Towards Understanding Software Craftsmanship

    Author : Anders Sundelin; Javier Gonzalez-Huerta; Krzysztof Wnuk; Tony Gorschek; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Software craftsmanship; Programvaruteknik; Software Engineering;

    Abstract : The concept of software craftsmanship has roots in the earliest days of computing but has received comparably little attention from the research community.As a reaction to how Agile methods were practiced and taught in industry, in 2009, the Manifesto for Software Craftsmanship was formulated and published, drawing attention to the concept.
