CS605 Assignment No.2
Name / Terms Descriptions
spoilage The maintainability of a product can be monitored with the help of this cost oriented metric.
correctness The degree to which software performs its functionalities.
spoilage The cost required to correct a defect after it is delivered to the end-user.
McCall model’s Revision Factors
Portability, Reusability, Interoperability.
Function Point (FP) Analysis
A mechanism used to calculate the size of a software.
External Outputs
Its processing logic contains at least one mathematical formula or it will generate some derived data. It also has the capability to change the behavior of the system.
McCall model’s Adaptation Factors
Maintainability, Flexibility, Testability.
Data Element Type (DET)
A unique user recognizable and non-repeated field maintained in or extracted from the ILF or EIF through an elementary process.
External Inquiry
Its processing logic contains no mathematical formulas or any derived data. Neither the Internal Logical File (ILF) is maintained during the processing nor is the behavior of the system changed.
File Type Reference (FTR) Definition
An internal logical file or an external interface file maintained by a transactional function.
Enhancement Count
It includes all the functionalities being added, modified, and deleted, without having an impact over the boundary of the application.
External Inquiry
It is primarily used to deliver data to a user through the retrieval of data or control information from an Internal Logical File (ILF) or an External Interface File (EIF).
Internal Logical Files (ILF)
A group of logically related data maintained within the boundary of an application that is identifiable to the user.
Application Boundary
It represents a distinction between the software being measured and the user. It’s a conceptual interface between the ‘internal’ application and the ‘external’ user world.
Record Element Type (RET)
Optional and Mandatory are the two subgroups of data elements within an
Internal Logical File (ILF) or an External Interface File (EIF).
