Abstract

This research deals with software requirements ambiguity problems. Among these are incomplete, incorrect, improper, inaccurate and unambiguous requirements. Interestingly, published material related to Software Requirements Specifications (SRS) problems discusses ambiguity as one of the most conversed problems. This paper proposes a Software Requirement Ambiguity Avoidance Framework (SRAAF) to assist and support requirement engineers to write unambiguous requirements, by selecting correct elicitation technique based on the evaluation of various attributes and by applying the W6H technique. We explored existing theories and the outcomes of experimental research to construct the framework. On the basis of existing and inferred knowledge, we tried to justify proposed frameworks components. Our selection process focuses on various situational attributes. We added various situational attributes related to project, stakeholders and requirement engineer for the selection process. Newly devised approach chooses techniques other than traditional techniques or most common techniques and deals with ambiguity to capture the correct requirements information from stakeholders. The framework will be able to address the selection and ambiguity issues in a more effective way and can handle vagueness. New evidence related to attributes and adequacy matrix can be easily added to the framework without any inconvenience.

Abstract

The rapid development of Internet along with the wide use of social media applications produce huge volume of unstructured data in short text form such as tweets, text snippets and instant messages. This form of data rarely contains repeated word. It presents challenge in sentences similarity analysis as the standard text similarity models merely rely on the number of word occurrence, often resulting unreliable similarity value. Besides, the use of abbreviation, acronyms, slang, smiley, jargon, symbol or non-standard short form also contributes to the difficulty in similarity analysis. Thus, an extended ensemble similarity model approach is proposed. An experimental study has been conducted using datasets of English short sentences. The findings are very encouraging in improving the similarity value for short sentences.

Abstract

The challenge to incorporate usability evaluation values and practices into agile development process is not only persisting but also systemic. Notable contributions of researchers have attempted to isolate and close the gaps between both fields, with the aim of developing usable software. Due to the current absence of a reference model that specifies where and how usability activities need to be considered in the agile development process. This paper proposes a model for identifying appropriate usability evaluation methods alongside the agile development process. By using this model, the development team can apply usability evaluations at the right time at the right place to get the necessary feedback from the end-user. Verification of the proposed model was conducted using the focus group method by experts from industry domain.
