The concern and request of high-quality software has been increased according to the rapid transition of society to information-oriented era. Therefore activities of software quality management are regarded as serious as the activities of software development. Moreover, stakeholder of software may have various views of software quality. And some quality characteristics need to be managed with priorities in Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Hence we recognized that weights of quality characteristics might be useful to improve efficiency of quality management activities. However, this topic has not actively issued because its necessity and effectiveness has been ignored. This paper presents a technique to decide weights of software quality characteristics in SDLC. It is based on ISO/IEC 9126 which is the standard for software product quality. It is accomplished by questionnaires intended for stakeholder in software development and weight analysis through AHP (Analytic Hierarchical Process) method. Accordingly, it can select quality characteristics by weight in SDLC. And then it helps us to acquire high duality software through measuring software quality quantitatively and expecting the quality after completion of software development.

This study aimed to improve the software quality in weapon systems by applying ISO/IEC 25023 to the software engineering process. The software engineering process in weapon systems manages the Software Quality Requirement but has restrictively improved the software quality. Software quality items are already defined and used for software engineering processes in weapon systems, but they are defined inconsistently according to individual software development cases. Thus, the methods of quantifying software quality are different, even though the same software quality is defined. In addition, the software quality has been managed differently. The major problems of software engineering processes in weapon systems are the unclear definition of the software quality requirements and the absence of quantifying software quality standards. ISO/IEC 25023 is composed of eight quality characteristics and thirty-one sub-characteristics. ISO/IEC 25023 provides measurement functions that can quantify the software product quality based on its characteristics. To improve the software quality further, the measurement functions in ISO/IEC 25023 are suggested to quantify and manage software quality for software engineering processes in weapon systems. The expected effects of this study were analyzed.

It is booming to use computer and information owing to the information society. As software applications have grown, so too has the importance of software quality. Therefore, software quality measurement and evaluation are necessary to satisfy the users who are using computers. The ISO/IEC 9126 defines six quality characteristics and twenty-one subcharacteristics including forty inter quality characteristics. We developed software measurement and evaluation technique using the check list in accordance with the ISO/IEC 9126 in design phase. We applied idea and concept of Total Quality Management in order to evaluate and measure the quality of software. Namely, it is the concept such as "you should do it right the first time." or "you have to build quality in the process." We executed the quantitative evaluation of software, also had shown the distinctive result in order that users and developers can find the errors easily. We evaluated the quality of academic softwares in order to verify developing technique at S college. As a result of the evaluation, this college has found it necessary to maintain the software as soon as possible because academic systems are not adequate for users at this present time.

In this paper, the QFD(quality function deployment) technique is used to acquire the quality requirements of package software which is sold in a commercial software shop. To select the principal quality characteristics of package software, an user survey was conducted for a quality model developed based on the international standards and the previous research. The software user is divided into three groups：the general user, the expert, and the developer. The method of QFD is applied to choose the software quality attributes which have strong correlation with the selected quality characteristics.

In this paper, the QFD(quality function deployment) technique is used to acquire the quality requirements of package software which is sold in commercial software shop. To select the principal quality characteristics of package software, an user survey was conducted for a quality model developed based on the international standards and the previous research. The software user is divided into three groups: the general user, the expert, and the developer. Based on the survey results, the top 10 quality characteristics are selected including accuracy, suitability, installability, de-installability, and maturaty. Then, the QFD technique is applied to choose the software quality attributes which have strong correlation with the selected quality characteristics, some of which are traceability, accuracy, modularity, completeness, and self-descriptiveness. The developed procedure can be used in evaluating the quality of package software with lower costs and efforts.

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.

This paper presents the interrelationship between software quality character and engineering attributes. The software quality characteristics and subcharacteristics are excerpted from IS0/IEC 9126 standards, and the engineering attributes are from Deutsch and Willis〔4〕. Based on the previous studies a subjective judgement, trisected interrelationship(strong, medium, weak) bet these two groups are derived. The results are summarized in a table, and can be used as a quick reference guide to the software quality engineering application such as quality evaluations for software products, selection of key engineering attributes for high-quality software production, and so forth.

Game software is tremendous popularity in inside and outside of the country, so it rises market value. Therefore, it is important to study for the evaluation models of game software. In a general way, I think that ISO/IEC 9126 is the international standard of the software quality testing. Especially, game software quality has been more important on users and developers, so we need the compliance testing model of the game software. In this paper, we evaluate the game software quality objectively and quantitatively, we propose the software quality metrics of testing. Also, we propose the evaluation model of game software on the basis of international standard ISO/IEC 9126, six quality characteristic point of view. That is functionality, reliability, usability, efficiency, portability, and maintainability.

As the proportion of software in weapon systems increases, the impact of software on the overall system is growing. As a result, software quality management becomes important, and related regulations and work manuals for quality assurance activities at each stage in the R & D process are becoming more sophisticated. However, due to the characteristics of the weapon system software that is developed as a customized form for the purpose of a specific mission, there are limits to specifying and definitizing the detailed requirements (upper and lower level) according to various operational concepts during the development process. Due to this, software modification (patch change, shape change due to upgrade, etc.) occurs on account of many defects and performance improvement in the mass production and operation stage after the development is completed. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of these weapon system softwares and propose quality improvement methods based on ISO / IEC / IEEE 29119 test method.
