This study proposed a method for determining weights for the eight quality characteristics, such as functionality, reliability, usability, maintainability, portability, efficiency, security, and interoperability, which are suggested by international standards, focusing on software test reports. Currently, the test results for software quality evaluation apply the same weight to 8 quality characteristics to obtain the arithmetic average. Weights for 8 quality characteristics were applied using the results from text analysis, and weights were applied using the results of text analysis of test reports for two products. It was confirmed that the average of test reports according to the weighted quality characteristics was more efficient.

Software quality is classified by quality of process and product. In experience of Quality Management, it is known that quality level of product as it depends on goodness and badness of process and organization. As a result, improvement of software process has been important subject. According as this trends, ISO 12207 is publicated as standard of software life cycle process by ISO. For UML based object oriented development process, it is necessary that we should research detailed definition of activity and task of ISO 12207 process which is added, deleted or tailored in according to organization and project characteristics. In this thesis, by according with ISO 12207 software life cycle process, UML based object oriented development process is proposed. This process is composed of 7 steps and 19 activities including development phase, activity and product to improve quality of reliability. Usefulness of object oriented process for improvement of software quality is proved at three ways, which are comparative analysis of process characteristics, SPICE process evaluation and SPICE rick analysis.

Mobile application is software executing on smart devices regardless of the time and place. Many individuals and companies have provided a lot of mobile applications services. However, there is not certain standard in terms of application's quality evaluation because study is deficient compared with increase amount of development of mobile application. Moreover, mobile application basically has many special characteristics. For these reasons mobile application is required special standard of quality different from general software. To satisfy these needs, I design and propose mobile application evaluation model. Evaluation model is mapped by characteristics of mobile application based on ISO/IEC 25000's quality characteristics and propose each quality characteristics and metrics. For verification, scenario-based studies were applied to quality model and carried out.

Nowadays, lots of software that have similar functions is being produced. Hence it is getting more important to select the best and suitable software for each individual or company. Moreover, there are few trustworthy materials regarding to the objective procedure and criteria for the best evaluation of the software quality. To overcome these problems, benchmarking has been carried out. However, benchmarking is also confronting the limit of quality evaluation verification due to the difficult of the objectification of the major test items. To solve these problems, some others try to evaluate the quality of software using objective criteria of evaluation based on ISO/IEC standards. Nevertheless, this method using these defined evaluation items and criteria may result in not very reliable outcome. Therefore, this paper offers the evaluation items reflected in the characteristics of each software in order to prove the validity of the proposed method. Moreover, the objective and quantitative criterion which analyzes and reflects the organization characteristics using AHP methodology is applied to the experiment and performance evaluation. Hence we expect that the proposed method provides the needs of the re-establishment of software quality evaluation criteria and the improvement of process in terms of management.

Various quality models using quality factor, quality criteria and metrics have been proposed in order to evaluate quality of software products. However, a customized quality model which is specific to the characteristics of software component is required. In this paper, we propose external quality prediction techniques enable us to predict what external quality the final software product will have by using metrics as with internal attributes of software in development. We also propose a model not only for measuring quality by using metrics but also for applying internal attributes of ISO 9126 into artifacts of software component development.

Although various quantitative indexes are used as criteria for deciding the success of software R & D projects, it is somewhat difficult to find which quantitative indexes are appropriate. In this paper, we propose a quantitative evaluation index generation process for software product development using ISO / IEC25023, which is used as a standard of software quality level, to provide criteria for quantitative evaluation index of software development. The proposed process consists of two stages. In the first step, quality characteristics and subcharacteristics of ISO / IEC25023 standard specification are derived and in the second stage, we derive an evaluation indicator guides that matches the quality characteristics and sub characteristics. The proposed quantitative evaluation index generation process is expected to be helpful for the selection of quantitative evaluation indexes according to the characteristics of software development projects.

International standard for software quality evaluation, ISO/IEC 9126 defines the quality characteristics and sub-characteristics consisting of quality of the software. Also, in this standard, the quality assessment items are presented in metrics based on maturity, fault tolerance, recoverability and compliance which are sub-characteristics of reliability. However, this reliability assessment items which are presented are not applied now due to the mathematical difficulties and the problems caused by collection of data. In order to resolve these problems, this study introduces measures to develop a specific test technique by quality attributes and to measure the quality. In other words, the detailed guidelines are presented to be utilized as a standard by summarizing test activities and techniques by each development life the most commonly used. The SW quality results are derived by assigning weights to software in order of the most important quality characteristics of respective software using checklist that can be easily utilized and applying test technique that can be utilized for detailed evaluation items and checklist. This improves problems that include reliability assessment item of ISO/IEC 9126 as the measures to measure new reliability quality of software.
