In the past it was generally felt that software quality was the same as product quality. But as the software industry is getting bigger and more complex, it has become hard to develop quality software that meets customers' needs just depending on product quality. Therefore, lately many domestic and foreign companies are making efforts to upgrade product quality by implementing Process Improvement. Measurement in Process Improvement activities enhances the effect of Process Improvement, and also identifies and helps the activities. In support of this paper, research on the measurement program was conducted based on the CMMI adopted by many domestic and foreign companies for their process improvement model. MA process area that deals with measurement process setup is one of the CMMI process areas and was the basis of the structure of the measurement program. This study presents differences of the measurement program for each level of CMMI and how to apply it. The results of this study can help a business to apply CMMI-based Process Improvement by backing up the structure of the measurement program. Furthermore, it can offer a roadmap for progress of the measurement program for each level.

Recently, software quality evaluation based on ISO/IEC 9126 and ISO/IEC 14598 has been widely accepted in various areas. However, these standards for software quality do not provide practical guidelines to apply the quality model and the evaluation process of software product=5. And the qualify management in most software projects has been conducted by managing defects without applying the standards for software qualify. Thus, we present a quantitative quality evaluation approach of artifacts in the Component Based Development (CBD). Particularly, our evaluation approach allows most of the standard evaluation process and adopts a quantitative quality model which uses the weights of quality characteristics obtained through carefully selected questionnaires for stakeholder and Analytic Hierarchical Process(AHP). Moreover, we have also examined the proposed evaluation approach with applying the checklists for the artifacts of the CBD to a small-scale software project. As a result, we believe that the proposed approach will be helpful for acquiring the high quality software.

Water quality models are scientific tools that simulate and interpret the relationship between physical, chemical and biological reactions to external pollutant loads in water systems. They are actively used as a key technology in environmental water management. With recent advances in computational power, water quality modeling technology has evolved into a coupled three-dimensional modeling of hydrodynamics, water quality, and ecological inputs. However, there is uncertainty in the simulated results due to the increasing model complexity, knowledge gaps in simulating complex aquatic ecosystem, and the distrust of stakeholders due to nontransparent modeling processes. These issues have become difficult obstacles for the practical use of water quality models in the water management decision process. The objectives of this paper were to review the theoretical background, needs, and development status of water quality modeling technology. Additionally, we present the potential future directions of water quality modeling technology as a scientific tool for national environmental water management. The main development directions can be summarized as follows: quantification of parameter sensitivities and model uncertainty, acquisition and use of high frequency and high resolution data based on IoT sensor technology, conjunctive use of mechanistic models and data-driven models, and securing transparency in the water quality modeling process. These advances in the field of water quality modeling warrant joint research with modeling experts, statisticians, and ecologists, combined with active communication between policy makers and stakeholders.

This study sought to find importance factors for the quality of delivery food service, identify the mutual importance of delivery food service quality studied in the preceding study, and derive the order of importance of each factor. To compare the priorities of factors determining the choice of quality of delivery food service, this study used a decision model using the appropriate Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and carried out the process of quantifying the mutual evaluation. This process allows us to view the relative importance and priority of the selection factors. Through a prior study, the main factors of quality of delivery food service were classified and the main people of high importance were selected. According to the results of AHP the quality of deliver service is the main factor for the quality of delivery food service, and the quality of order service and food service is the key factor of the quality of delivery food service, which should take the upper hand in importance. This study results in how important specific factors are by giving relative self-weights to the lower factors, showing that convenience and accuracy always have the first and second place weight priorities in the lower factors, despite differences such as gender age and frequency of making them more convenient and accurate.

The injection molding process is able to produce high precision manufactures as a single process with fast speed. However, the prices of both the mold and the molding machine are expensive, and the single process is very complex and difficult to compose of the exact relationship between the process setting conditions and the product quality. Therefore, the quality of a molded product often depends on a skillful engineer's operations in the design of both parts and molds. In this paper, the relationship between the process conditions and the defectiveness is built for better manufactures under settings of the appropriate parameters, and so it can reduce the setup time in the injection molding process. Quality Function Deployment (QFD) provides severe defectiveness factors along with the related process parameters. Also, neural networks estimate the relationship between defective factors and process setting parameters, and lead to reduce the defectiveness of molded parts.

The statistical approach to quality control aims at alerting its user to any variations in the properties of a manufactured product. Motorola developed and pursued a quality management program called six sigma. The goal of six sigma programs is to improve customer satisfaction through reducing and eliminating defects. six sigma uses several statistical measure to characterize defect levels and process capabilities. The upper and lower specification limits are $\pm6\sigma$(sigma) from nominal, and the process mean is centered at nominal. only 0.002PPM are outside specification limits. Cp=2. this is the design target in a six sigma program. This article presents an important tool available for quality control of a production process at the occurrence of defects in manufactured products at view low levels to improve the efficiency of the manufacturing productivity and to satisfy customer through the reduction of defect rates. To understand the consequences of the level of quality on competitive position, a more technical perspective is needed.

This paper considers the problem of determining the optimum proccss mean value of the quality characteristic of interest, and the screening limit for two correlated variables under single-stage screening. In the single-stage screening, inspection is performed on two correlated variables which are correlated with the quality characteristic of interest. Model is constructed which involves selling price, production, inspection, and penalty costs. Method for finding the optimum process mean and screening limit are presented when the quality characteristic of interest and the correlated variables are assumed to be jointly normally distributed. A numerical example is presented and numerical analysis is performed to compare the proposed screening based on two screening variables with screening based on one screening variable.
