Development of Measurement and Evaluation Technique for Software Quality in Design Phase

설계단계에서의 소프트웨어 품질측정과 평가기법 개발

It is booming to use computer and information owing to the information society. As software applications have grown, so too has the importance of software quality. Therefore, software quality measurement and evaluation are necessary to satisfy the users who are using computers. The ISO/IEC 9126 defines six quality characteristics and twenty-one subcharacteristics including forty inter quality characteristics. We developed software measurement and evaluation technique using the check list in accordance with the ISO/IEC 9126 in design phase. We applied idea and concept of Total Quality Management in order to evaluate and measure the quality of software. Namely, it is the concept such as "you should do it right the first time." or "you have to build quality in the process." We executed the quantitative evaluation of software, also had shown the distinctive result in order that users and developers can find the errors easily. We evaluated the quality of academic softwares in order to verify developing technique at S college. As a result of the evaluation, this college has found it necessary to maintain the software as soon as possible because academic systems are not adequate for users at this present time.
