Design review based on failure mode (DRBFM) is a tool originally developed by the Toyota Motor Corporation. This tool was developed based on the philosophy that design problems occur when changes are made to existing engineering designs that have already been proven successful.
The ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes (SEN) is published by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) for the Special Interest Group on Software Engineering (SIGSOFT). [1] It was established in 1976, and the first issue appeared in May 1976. [2] It provides a forum for informal articles and other information on software engineering.
ATAM was developed by the Software Engineering Institute at the Carnegie Mellon University. Its purpose is to help choose a suitable architecture for a software system by discovering trade-offs and sensitivity points. ATAM is most beneficial when done early in the software development life-cycle when the cost of changing architectures is minimal.
An architectural model (in software) is a diagram created by using available standards in which the primary aim is to illustrate a specific set of tradeoffs inherent in the structure and design of a system or ecosystem. Software architects utilize architectural models to facilitate communication and obtain peer feedback.
Structured analysis and design technique (SADT) is a systems engineering and software engineering methodology for describing systems as a hierarchy of functions. SADT is a structured analysis modelling language, which uses two types of diagrams: activity models and data models.
The quality model presented in the first part of the standard, ISO/IEC 9126-1, [2] classifies software quality in a structured set of characteristics and sub-characteristics as follows: Functionality - "A set of attributes that bear on the existence of a set of functions and their specified properties.
The PSP was created by Watts Humphrey to apply the underlying principles of the Software Engineering Institute's (SEI) Capability Maturity Model (CMM) to the software development practices of a single developer. It claims to give software engineers the process skills necessary to work on a team software process (TSP) team.
The models have two basic types - prediction modeling and estimation modeling. 1.0 Overview of Software Reliability Prediction Models. These models are derived from actual historical data from real software projects. The user answers a list of questions which calibrate the historical data to yield a software reliability prediction.
