Article Citation - WoS: 2Multi-Paradigm Metric and Its Applicability on Java Projects(Budapest Tech, 2013) Misra, Sanjay; Cafer, Ferid; Akman, Ibahim; Fernandez-Sanz, LuisJAVA is one of the favorite languages amongst software developers. However, the numbers of specific software metrics to evaluate the JAVA code are limited In this paper, we evaluate the applicability of a recently developed multi paradigm metric to JAVA projects. The experimentations show that the Multi paradigm metric is an effective measure for estimating the complexity of the JAVA code/projects, and therefore it can be used for controlling the quality of the projects. We have also evaluated the multi-paradigm metric against the principles of measurement theory.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 17Software Measurement Activities in Small and Medium Enterprises: an Empirical Assessment(Budapest Tech, 2011) Pusatli, O. Tolga; Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringAn empirical study for evaluating the proper implementation of measurement/metric programs in software companies in one area of Turkey is presented. The research questions are discussed and validated with the help of senior software managers (more than 15 years' experience) and then used for interviewing a variety of medium and small scale software companies in Ankara. Observations show that there is a common reluctance/lack of interest in utilizing measurements/metrics despite the fact that they are well known in the industry. A side product of this research is that internationally recognized standards such as ISO and CMMI are pursued if they are a part of project/job requirements; without these requirements, introducing those standards to the companies remains as a long-term target to increase quality.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 18Evaluation Criteria for Object-Oriented Metrics(Budapest Tech, 2011) Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringIn this paper an evaluation model for object-oriented (OO) metrics is proposed. We have evaluated the existing evaluation criteria for OO metrics, and based on the observations, a model is proposed which tries to cover most of the features for the evaluation of OO metrics. The model is validated by applying it to existing OO metrics. In contrast to the other existing criteria, the proposed model is simple in implementation and includes the practical and important aspects of evaluation; hence it suitable to evaluate and validate any OO complexity metric.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 16An Approach for the Empirical Validation of Software Complexity Measures(Budapest Tech, 2011) Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringSoftware metrics are widely accepted tools to control and assure software quality. A large number of software metrics with a variety of content can be found in the literature; however most of them are not adopted in industry as they are seen as irrelevant to needs, as they are unsupported, and the major reason behind this is due to improper empirical validation. This paper tries to identify possible root causes for the improper empirical validation of the software metrics. A practical model for the empirical validation of software metrics is proposed along with root causes. The model is validated by applying it to recently proposed and well known metrics.Article Citation - WoS: 27The Dea - Fuzzy Anp Department Ranking Model Applied in Iran Amirkabir University(Budapest Tech, 2010) Rouyendegh, Babak Daneshvar; Erol, SerpilProposed in this study is a hybrid model for supporting the department selection process within Iran Amirkabir University. This research is a two-stage model designed to fully rank the organizational departments where each department has multiple inputs and outputs. First, the department evaluation problem is formulated by Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and separately formulates each pair of units. In the second stage, the pair-wise evaluation matrix generated in the first stage is utilized to fully rank-scale the units via the Fuzzy Analytical Network Process (FANP). The FANP method adopted here uses triangular fuzzy numbers. ANP equipped with fuzzy logic helps in overcoming the impreciseness in the preferences. DEA-FANP ranking does not replace the DEA classification model; rather, it furthers the analysis by providing full ranking in the DEA context for all departments, efficient and inefficient.Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 48Customer Relationship Management: Implementation Process Perspective(Budapest Tech, 2009) Mishra, Alok; Mishra, Deepti; Computer Engineering; Software EngineeringCustomer relationship management (CRM) can help organizations manage customer interactions more effectively to maintain competitiveness in the present economy. As more and more organizations realize the significance of becoming customer-centric in today's competitive era, they adopted CRM as a core business strategy and invested heavily. CRM, an integration of information technology and relationship marketing, provides the infrastructure that facilitates long-term relationship building with customers at an enterprise-wide level. Successful CRM implementation is a complex, expensive and rarely technical projects. This paper presents the successful implementation of CRM from process perspective in a trans-national organization with operations in different segments. This study will aid in understanding transition, constraints and the implementation process of CRM in such organizations.Article Measuring the Reusable Quality for Xml Schema Documents(Budapest Tech, 2013) Thaw, Tinzar; Misra, SanjayeXtensible Markup Language (XML) based web applications are widely used for data describing and providing internet services. The design of XML schema document (XSD) needs to be quantified with software with the reusable nature of XSD. This nature of documents helps software developers to produce software at a lower software development cost. This paper proposes a metric Entropy. Measure of Complexity (EMC), which is intended to measure the reusable quality of XML schema documents. A higher EMC value tends to more reusable quality, and as well, a higher EMC value implies that this schema document contains inheritance feature, elements and attributes. For empirical validation, the metric is applied on 70 WSDL schema files. A comparison with similar measures is also performed. The proposed EMC metric is also validated practically and theoretically. Empirical, theoretical and practical validation and a comparative study proves that the EMC metric is a valid metric and capable of measuring the reusable quality of XSD.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 22Anomaly Detection Using Fuzzy Q-Learning Algorithm(Budapest Tech, 2014) Shamshirband, Shahaboddin; Anuar, Nor Badrul; Kiah, Miss Laiha Mat; Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringWireless networks are increasingly overwhelmed by Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks by generating flooding packets that exhaust critical computing and communication resources of a victim's mobile device within a very short period of time. This must be protected. Effective detection of DDoS attacks requires an adaptive learning classifier, with less computational complexity, and an accurate decision making to stunt such attacks. In this paper, we propose an intrusion detection system called Fuzzy Q-learning (FQL) algorithm to protect wireless nodes within the network and target nodes from DDoS attacks to identify the attack patterns and take appropriate countermeasures. The FQL algorithm was trained and tested to establish its performance by generating attacks from the NSL-KDD and CAIDA DDoS Attack datasets during the simulation experiments. Experimental results show that the proposed FQL IDS has higher accuracy of detection rate than Fuzzy Logic Controller and Q-learning algorithm alone.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 11Erp Project Implementation: Evidence From the Oil and Gas Sector(Budapest Tech, 2011) Mishra, Alok; Mishra, Deepti; Computer Engineering; Software EngineeringEnterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems provide integration and optimization of various business processes, which can lead to improved planning and decision quality, and a smoother coordination between business units, resulting in higher efficiency and a quicker response time to customer demands and inquiries.

The legal system environment has adopted IT not just to save costs and time but also to give organizations a competitive edge and to ensure security as well. The Legal Business Information System is a fully operational and integrated system for a legal department. The mission of the department is to provide innovative and quality services in insolvency and trustee matters. Very few legal business information system implementations are documented in literature. Therefore this paper will facilitate understanding of system implementation in this sector.
