  • System support software is one of the software that makes up ship combat management system and has the characteristics of being mounted in the combat management systems of all ships but with little functional change. However, despite these characteristics, software modifications due to equipment, etc. are inevitable in the application of new ships. Modification of software causes software reliability testing which is a key factor in increasing development costs. In this paper, the structure of the existing system support software was analyzed to identify and supplement the code change factors, and the system support standardization architecture was designed. The feature model elicited common and variable elements of system support software, and applied white-box reuse to improve software design. In addition, the results of comparing existing system support software with the new architecture in terms of development elements and time to perform reliability test were presented to verify the effectiveness of the new one.

  • Software is continuously changing during development and after development. When a change is required, it is difficult to precisely grasp the scope of impact intuitively. A systematic method is needed to accomplish the required change. The purpose of impact analysis on software change is to avoid missing any information by recognizing the ripple effect that the change might cause. This paper proposes a dynamic method that can easily identify the scope of change request by using the association between use-case scenarios and artifacts of UML modeling in object-oriented development environment. By using this approach, the scope of impact that the change might have on other components such as class diagram and sequence diagram in use-case scenarios can be identified by forward tracing. In addition, analysis of influence of possible further changes due to changes in other components can be identified iteratively through backward tracing. The results of this paper are not limited to impact analysis on artifacts and change type. They can also be used as basic guidelines during impact analysis for various change requests.

  • Many studies in the software reliability have attempted to develop a model for predicting the faults of a software module because the application of good prediction models provides the optimal resource allocation during the development period. In this paper, we consider the change request data collected from the field test of the software module that incorporate a functional relation between the faults and some software metrics. To this end, we discuss the general aspect if regression method, the problem of multicollinearity and the measures of model evaluation. We consider four possible regression models including two stepwise regression models and two nonlinear models. Four developed models are evaluated with respect to the predictive quality.

  • In this paper, we propose a software reliability growth model (SRGM) based on the testing domain, which is isolated by the executed test cases. This model assumes an imperfect debugging environment in which new faults are introduced in the fault-correction process. We consider that the fault detection rate of NHPP model is changed in the proposed SRGM. We obtain the maximum likelihood estimate, and compare goodness-of-fit with another existing software reliability growth model.

  • This paper deals with inter-relationship change of women's university students on the process of SW development project using social collaboration tool. Inter-relationship is one of the basic vocational competency in NCS(National Competency Standards) of Korea. We redesigned the curriculum of "Software Engineering" subject for this study and composed the project teams of students to develop software. The details of inter-relationship are satisfaction, communication, faith, friendliness, sensitivity, openness and consideration. From the result of this study, faith, openness and consideration have positive effect but satisfaction, communication, friendliness and sensitivity have no meaningful effect. The surveys were conducted in the beginning of semester and the same surveys were conducted again in the end of semester. The results were verified by paired t-test with SPSS 18.0. It is significant that the using of social collaboration tool for team project has positive effect on inter-relationship change, especially faith of women's university students. This study has some limitations for generalization but has meaning as new trial to enlarge the basic vocational competency of students in major subject, "Software Engineering". We expect new study for inter-relationship change of students to evaluate generality based on the proposed method in this paper.

  • Applying the change impact analysis to the distributed environment is not straightforward since it is based on the centralized system environment. In this paper, we investigate the change impact analysis of object-oriented shoftwares in the distributed environment. We first, categories the types of changes common in object-oriented software into three sets: data, method, and class level changes. We, then, analyze the impact of each set of changes and represent it in the form of a DPDG. A DPDG is a graph showing relationship of object oriented softwares - with data elements. classes, design documents, servers - in the distributed environment. DPDG searches element of software to retest when the software is changed. Thus, DPDG saves effort of software to retest. In this paper, We propose the table of firewall for retest elements that be discovered by DPDG and implement the table of firewall. The table of firewall is used VIST that we design a software testing tool. The VIST utilizes the minimized firewall, then saves efforts and costs of retesting for distributed object-oriented software.

  • Software product lines (SPLs) are complex software systems by nature due to their common reference architecture and interdependencies. Therefore, any form of evolution can lead to a more complex situation than a single system. On the other hand, software product lines are developed keeping long-term perspectives in mind, which are expected to have a considerable lifespan and a long-term investment. SPL development organizations need to consider software evolution in a systematic way due to their complexity and size. Addressing new user requirements over time is one of the most crucial factors in the successful implementation SPL. Thus, the addition of new requirements or the rapid context change is common in SPL products. To cope with rapid change several researchers have discussed the evolution of software product lines. However, for the evolution of an SPL, the literature did not present a systematic process that would define activities in such a way that would lead to the rapid evolution of software. Our study aims to provide a requirements-driven process that speeds up the requirements engineering process using social network sites in order to achieve rapid software evolution. We used classification, topic modeling, and sentiment extraction to elicit user requirements. Lastly, we conducted a case study on the smartwatch domain to validate our proposed approach. Our results show that users' opinions can contain useful information which can be used by software SPL organizations to evolve their products. Furthermore, our investigation results demonstrate that machine learning algorithms have the capacity to identify relevant information automatically.
