The goal of product line engineering is to support the systematic development of a set of similar software systems by understanding and controlling their common and distinguishing characteristics. The product line engineering is a process that develops reusable core assets and develops a set of software-intensive systems from a common set of core assets in a prescribed way. Currently, many software development technologies are accomplished in context of product line. However, much of the product line engineering research have focused on the reuse of work products relating to the software's architecture, detail design, and code. The product lines fulfill the promise of tailor-made systems built specifically for the needs of particular customers or customer groups. In particular, commonality and variability play central roles in the all product line development processes. These must be treated already during the requirement analysis phase. Requirements in product line engineering are basis of software development just like as traditional system development engineering, and basis of deciding other core assets' property - commonalities and variabilities. However, it is difficult to elicit, analyze and manage correct requirements. Therefore, it is necessary to develop systematic methods which can develop and manage requirement as core asset, which can be stable in anticipative change and can be well adapted to unpredictable change. In this paper, we suggest a method of managing requirements as core asset in product line. Through this method, the reuse of domain requirements can be enhanced. As a result, the cost and time of software development can be reduced and the productivity can be increased.

The major concern of component users who develop applications using the existing components is to confirm whether a component is collaborating with the different components in accordance with the requirements. Therefore, interoperability testing whose role is to check whether components collaborate with each other within the new operating environment not within the component development content of each component is considered as an importance research topic. In this paper, we propose a test case generation technique for interoperability test of component based software. The proposed technique defines a test model for generating test cases. The proposed technique generates test models from the use case specification and thereafter from these models, test cases for Interoperability testing are derived. In addition, we describe a tool which Implements the procedures for generating test sequences from test models.

Software changes for various kinds of reasons and they increase maintenance cost. Software metrics, as quantitative values about attributes of software, have been adopted for predicting maintenance cost and fault-proneness. This paper proposes relationship between some typical object-oriented metrics and software changes in industrial settings. We used seven metrics which are concerned with size, complexity coupling, inheritance and polymorphism, and collected data about the number of changes during the development of an Information system on .NET platform. Based on them, this paper proposes a model for predicting the number of changes from the object-oriented metrics using multiple regression analysis technique.

Rapidly developing mobile internet technology and extensive service of smart phones have led to growing use of mobile applications. It is natural that software developers and IT-related students develop a variety of applications that can be used for everyday life. The present paper reports a case of developing such an application that was developed in a capstone design course of Department of Computer Science at Namseoul University. This so-called 'Application for Prevention of Loss of One's Belongings' was designed to let students learn a set of tools based on Android operation system. This app can prevent smart phone users from losing their belongings using an alarm. The educational effect from the process of developing this application is also discussed.

Today raises its head on the issue of interoperability caused by the complexity of the embedded software and the diverse development environment about SUGV(Small Unmanned Ground Vehicle). So, we propose to adopt the original MDA mechanism for this heterogeneous embedded development. To solve this problem, we apply for developing SUGV with MDA(Model Driven Architecture) using the original UML profile mechanism. Through this method, it can be semi-automatically transformed into TSM(Target specific model) after modeling TIM(Target Independent Model). Then we can also automatically generate the heterogeneous source codes. Therefore it will be reduced the development cycle and effort of the heterogeneous systems. We verify the benefits of our proposed approach and the reliability through analyzing the generated codes.

Increasing the importance of Green IT brings low-power consumption requirements for embedded software into relief. This paper focus on the power analysis techniques of embedded software along with the trend. We survey the existing research on the power analysis techniques performed during the last decade, and find out some features or characteristics from the analysis approaches of those techniques. Also we summarize those characteristics into a systematic model, and then apply the model to embedded software development process using spider diagram. Our suggestion gives such benefits as improving the understanding of power analysis techniques, guiding the choice of an appropriate technique to their Power analysis, and forecasting the direction of technology changes in embedded software power analysis.

When you look at computer training techniques, generally you will see an unbalanced focus towards the software applications being used. Office programs, including software applications, or simply the ability to operate has been assigned in the attempt to develop more information. Omitted, while a students thought process dealing with computer applications is usually clear and effective, the functional oriented tasks involved are time consuming. In order to keep up with the pace of today changing requirements, creativity and problems solving ability is a necessity. These are the areas in which both our training techniques are inefficient, and the resulting ability of student's is unsatisfactory. In this study of 5thand6thgradelevelcomputerteachingtechniques.

MVC(Model-View-Controller) architecture is well-known for high maintainability and it makes efficient development possible. Recently, it has been applied in many fields such as web, desktop and mobile applications. Therefore, effective testing for this architecture is strongly needed. Although much research has been done, there was not much efforts for exploiting MVC architecture in GUI testing. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a scheme for efficient and accurate GUI testing for MVC based applications. In this study we separate original state diagrams into view state diagram and model-controller state diagram. Then, we present a case study showing the effectiveness of our proposed scheme.

Object-oriented software, reusability enables to specialize the software techniques by leading the user friendly thought and meets the user's need only concentrating on convenience of development environment. Reuse effect can be maximized through retrieval system. In this paper, we development the MT-Views(Multiple-Template Views) to realize the reuse effect as integrated reuse system including retrieval, understanding and rebuilding tools based on class library. We used the hybrid retrieval model for easy and efficient retrieval of similar software components. With using these tools, users can retrieve the reusable components and reuse the components for constructing therir own applications. Also, we can acquire many informations about retrieved components, so can rebuild components conforming our original intend.

Improving software product quality is a key to increasing user satisfaction and to achieving competitive edge. There are two approaches to assure high software product quality; development process-oriented and product-oriented. There have been many efforts for improving software quality through process certification, for example, CMM, ISO 9000 family, ISO/IEC 12207, SPICE and Bootstrap. However, a good process alone cannot guarantee good product quality. A need for the evaluation of software product quality by an independent third party is growing rapidly for several reasons. We are concerned with an application of Statistical Quality Control (SQC) to the evaluation of software product quality to obtain the efficiency of evaluation processes and the objectivity of evaluation results. Methods for selecting test cases using a random sampling approach have been discussed and methods for selecting acceptance criteria with respect to software product quality have also been suggested.
