As the complexity of software increases, the choice of the appropriate software architecture becomes a critical task. This paper provides a guideline for selecting the appropriate software architecture based on pertinent ISO 25010 quality characteristics. The guideline was established through an analytical survey of 113 papers published from 2010 to 2014. Through this survey, we first identified a set of commonly used software architectures in the software engineering literature. Secondly, we applied the Formal Concept Analysis technique to classify each one of these architectures according to ISO 25010 quality characteristics. Finally, we identified the relationships among ISO 25010 quality characteristics, which in turn helped us to develop a guideline on how to select the appropriate software architecture with respect to ISO 25010 quality characteristics. In order to make sure about the validation of the proposed guideline, a survey with industrial experts is in progress. Data were collected from two companies working in the software development field (ST2i and Telnet).

A guideline for software architecture selection based on ISO 25010 quality related characteristics

The work presented in this paper introduces a set of metrics for component oriented software systems. The work focuses mainly on the complexity that results mainly from factors related to system structure and connectivity. Also, a new set of properties that a component-oriented complexity metric must possess are defined. The metrics have been evaluated using the properties defined in this paper. A case study has been conducted to detect the power of complexity metrics in predicting integration and maintenance efforts. The results of the study revealed that component oriented complexity metrics can be of great value in predicting both integration and maintenance efforts.

Complexity Metrics AS Predictors ofMaintainability and Integrability ofSoftware components

Measuring and estimating the reusability of software components is important towards finding reusable candidates. Researchers have shown that software metrics can be effectively used to assess software reusability. This work provides a systematic literature review to investigate the main factors that influence software reusability and how these identified factors can be quantified using software metrics. This paper also investigates tool availability of the identified software metrics. Based on the extensive study, we narrowed down 44 factors that could positively or negatively affect the reusability of software systems. In term of software metrics, we report our findings through five main families of metrics, namely coupling, cohesion, complexity, inheritance, and size. We found that most of the metrics examine reusability at the class‐level, and the availability of software tools is limited. Furthermore, not all reusability affecting factors are equally impactful to assess the reusability of software components. While existing studies often discussed the impact of complexity towards software reusability, we found that only a handful of complexity metrics were meant for assessing reusability. We have identified several open challenges and gaps in the area, in particular lack of quantifiable measurement for reusability, limited software tools, and limited metrics that directly measure reusability.

Reusability affecting factors and software metrics for reusability: A systematic literature review

Healthcare applications, such as patient record, patient – doctor mapping service, various disease symptoms etc. The major challenges is processing and integrating the real time data. Following-up with analyzing the data would involve moving the data in Data Lake to a Cloud to known about the status of the patient and for tracking purpose. In this research, we recommend a cloud based information integration framework using Data Lake in Cloud. This work extends the information integration architecture by designing with Data Lake in Cloud, using mathematical model (Petri Net) to verify architecture. This approach has the ability to scale up and down in real time data, and leading to efficient way of using data resources in the Cloud.

Reusing software assets has many advantages and has been essential feature of all software development approaches. Component based software development has been especially inspired by reuse. In order to reuse software component, the component has to be designed and built for reusability. Since reusability is influenced by a number of different factors, there are various approaches and metrics used to measure reusability. In this paper we conducted extensive literature review in order to identify reusability metrics and factors influencing reusability. Total of 39 papers introducing reusability metrics were found and analyzed. We identified 36 different factors influencing reusability, 12 black box component metrics and more than 20 white box/glass box metrics.

Modeling Measures for Service Interpretation in Discoverability of Service Oriented Architecture

Object oriented system was the programming paradigm which aimed at the concept of software reuse. This reuse concept which has obtained its significance there upon needed to be strengthened in software systems and design concepts. This paved the basic idea behind evolving of software design paradigms into component and service oriented systems respectively. An evolution based model had been formed based on a template designed to study and record how the metrics are categorised between the three systems. This paper projects the improvement done over the model in order to relate the metrics quantitatively. The maturity level of reuse metrics stated through the evolution based model is established by bringing out the strength of the relationship that is estimated through the study. General Terms Object Oriented System, Component based System and Service Oriented System.

A great challenge across business today is to achieve visibility into all the information produced within and outside the organization, fitting it to the context depending on the current scenario and for initiating effective action with the latest information. Information integration is one technique that helps in achieving this. Each organizations need for accessing information, list of input sources and in which form the outcome to be are all details contributing to the issues. Hence a need for a precise representation as to what information integration state is obvious. This paper gives the survey on various definitions stated for information integration which has been classified and discussed over the completeness of them analyzing on the three aspects input, output and process. Here the incompleteness of the stated definitions is explained in terms of where they limit. With these findings we present a comprehensive characterization of information integration with an effort to fit in all aspects i.e. meaning, distinctness and completeness of information integration leading to further research.

Reusability is an effective quality measure, wh ich defines the degree of usage/applicability of design or code on development of various applications. The Aspect oriented paradigm is one kind of mechanis m to achieve reusability because it provides the systematic ways in identify ing and separating the crosscutting concerns. In general any system can be defined as set of processes. These processes have many crosscutting concerns (aspects) that need to be separated to identify the reusable entities. The object ive of this work is to identify the reusable entities with the help o f a process flow based design model that mines the crosscutting concerns and separates them fro m the original processes. These reusable entities reduce the development effort. Also, we assess the reusability based on the metrics defined by us and they are reported. Banking Loan System has been chosen as a case study to demonstrate the working of the proposed process flow based design model. The quantified results of this model show the achievement of reusability and reduction of effort on development.
