    Object-oriented inheritance metrics: Cognitive complexity perspective
    (Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2009) Mishra,D.; Mishra,A.
    Identifying high cognitive complexity modules can lead to a better quality software system and can help during maintenance also. It has been found that inheritance has an impact on cognitive complexity of a software system. In this paper, two inheritance metrics based on cognitive complexity, one at class level CCI (Class Complexity due to Inheritance) and another at program level ACI (Average Complexity of a program due to Inheritance), have been proposed for object-oriented software systems. These metrics are also compared with other well known object-oriented inheritance metrics. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.

    Use Cases and Object Modelling Using Argouml
    (Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2011) Complak,W.; Wojciechowski,A.; Mishra,A.; Mishra,D.
    The key factor in the process of good quality software development is using proper techniques for requirements elicitation, representation and modelling providing foundations to build a logical model of the projected system. One of the most popular functional requirements description methods is use cases and scenarios approach introduced by Jacobson in 1993. Use case diagrams and analysis of functionality necessary for future users of the system allows precise definition of object model of target software system. However there are few fully functional free CASE tools supporting system designer at this software development stage. The article describes process of creating guidelines and formal requirements for design of a software system supporting storage and analysis of data concerning regulatory duties of Polish Telecom (Polish name: Telekomunikacja Polska) in the range of RIO framework agreement regarding collocation with the free UML modelling ArgoUML tool. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.

    Software Process Improvement Methodologies for Small and Medium Enterprises
    (Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2008) Mishra,D.; Mishra,A.
    Today, the software industry is one of the most rapidly growing sectors and small software development companies play an important role in economy. Many such organizations have been interested in Software Process Improvement (SPI). It has been observed that the successful implementation of SPI methodologies is generally not possible within the context of small and medium-sized software enterprises (SMEs) because they are not capable of bearing the cost of implementing these software process improvement programs. Further the proper implementation of software engineering techniques is difficult task for SMEs as they often operate on limited resources and with strict time constraints. There are number of methodologies to address these issues. In this paper, various SPI methodologies for SMEs are discussed and compared. This will lead towards maturity of software process improvement in SMEs and also facilitates in development of automation tools for SPIs in future. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

    Global Software Development and Quality Management: a Systematic Review
    (Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2013) Mishra,D.; Mishra,A.; Colomo-Palacios,R.; Casado-Lumbreras,C.
    This paper presents a systematic literature review of global software development (GSD) and quality management aspects. The main focus is to highlight the current research and practice direction in these areas. The results have been limited to peer-reviewed conference papers and journal articles, published between 2000 and 2011. The analysis reports that major studies have been performed in quality and process management, while verification and validation issues of GSD can only get limited attention among researchers. This indicates the need for future research (quantitative and qualitative) in these areas. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.

    Communications in Global Software Development: an Empirical Study Using Gtk+ Oss Repository
    (Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2011) Yu,L.; Ramaswamy,S.; Mishra,A.; Mishra,D.
    Effective communication is an important issue for global software development. Due to geographical limitations and travel challenges, face-to-face meetings are expensive to schedule and run. Web-based communication methods are thus the primary means of communication in global software development efforts. In general, two types of web-based communication mechanisms exist: synchronous and asynchronous communications; each serves a unique role. In this paper, we present an empirical study of the communication mechanisms in GNOME GTK+, a small-sized open-source distributed software project, in which Internet Relay Chat (IRC) and Mailing Lists are used as synchronous and asynchronous communication methods, respectively. The objective of this study is to identify how real time and asynchronous communication methods could be used and balanced across global software development projects. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.

    A Software Inspection Process for Globally Distributed Teams
    (Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2010) Mishra,D.; Mishra,A.
    Globally distributed software development is an accepted trend towards delivering high-quality software to global users at lower costs. Globally distributed software development teams particularly face communication and coordination problems due to spatial, temporal and cultural separation between team members. Ensuring quality issues in such projects is an important issue. This paper presents a software inspection process in the distributed software development towards quality assurance and management. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
