TLDR
This work presents an ontology that supports the reuse of quality criteria in the input stage of software product audits and shows that the same quality criteria can be applied to different software products.Abstract:
Software product audits are knowledge-intensive tasks in which architectural knowledge plays a pivotal role. In the input stage of a software product audit, quality criteria are selected to which the software product should conform. These quality criteria resemble architectural tactics and can be viewed as a definition of the Soll-architecture of the product. Like tactics, the same quality criteria can be applied to different software products. However, there are currently no models that support the codification of quality criteria as reusable assets. In this work, we present an ontology that supports the reuse of quality criteria in the input stage of software product audits.read more

Architectural Knowledge Management: Supporting Architects and Auditors
Rik Farenhorst,R.C. de Boer +1 more
TL;DR: To illustrate the effect of LSA on the document vector-space model, LSA was applied to the 8 documents from the audit that were still available, and both auditors seem to agree that there are two large document clusters.

Ontology-driven visualization of architectural design decisions
TL;DR: This paper presents how ontology-driven visualization of architectural design decisions can be used to assist software product audits, in which independent auditors perform an assessment of a product's quality.

On the evolution of quality conceptualization techniques
TL;DR: This work investigates the notion of software product quality from the point of view of its integration into the modeling activities on the same level of abstraction as traditional functional models (a conceptualization of quality).
