QW2001 Paper 6M1 Mr. Geert Pinxten The Extended Product Quality Model: Dynamic Focussing On Those Quality |
|
Software development today is characterised by a lot of innovation: business innovates, technology innovates. As innovation, by its definition always concerns novelty, inexperience and immaturity, assuring quality has never been so difficult. This presentation will present a framework based on the Product Quality Model of J. Rothmann [1] that could be applied by those that need to insure the quality of all these new technology software products and e-commerce solutions. This framework will bring quality assurance in ICT to a new level of professionalism and will also solve the problem of speed, time-to-market or product dynamics. The solution will put a dynamic focus on those quality attributes that really matter.
