Abstract
Recently, software quality evaluation based on ISO/IEC 9126 and ISO/IEC 14598 has been widely accepted in various areas. However, these standards for software quality do not provide practical guidelines to apply the quality model and the evaluation process of software products. Thus, we present a quantitative evaluation model using the ISO/IEC 9126 quality model in the Component Based Development (CBD) process. Particularly, our evaluation model adopts a quantitative quality model which uses the weights of quality characteristics obtained through carefully selected questionnaires for stakeholder and Analytic Hierarchical Process (AHP). Moreover, we have also examined the proposed evaluation model with applying the checklists for the artifacts of the CBD to a small-scale software project. As a result, we believe that the proposed model will be helpful for acquiring the high quality software.
