About the framework of quality evaluation using SQuaRE

Of the five core divisions of the SQuaRE series, the revision study of the quality evaluation division has started. As systems and software have become more complicated and diversified in recent years, it is important to have a mechanism to ensure the quality evaluation of them by a whole society. In order to do so, this revision aims to provide a framework for systematic quality evaluation using quality models and quality measures in the SQuaRE series. Furthermore, the framework will expand its scope of application to include four purposes: comparison, qualification to standard, conformity checking to requirements, and suitability evaluation in the market. This paper organizes and reports on the idea.
