Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 12Estimating Quality of Javascript(Zarka Private Univ, 2012) Misra, Sanjay; Cafer, Ferid; Computer EngineeringThis paper proposes a complexity metric for Java script since JavaScript is the most popular scripting language that can run in all of the major web browsers. The proposed metric "JavaScript Cognitive Complexity Measure (JCCM)" is intended to assess the design quality of scripts. The metrics has been evaluated theoretically and validated empirically through real test cases. The metric has also been compared with other similar metrics. The theoretical, empirical validation and comparative study prove the worth and robustness of the metric.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 12Software Process Improvement Methodologies for Small and Medium Enterprises(Springer-verlag Berlin, 2008) Mishra, Deepti; Mishra, AlokToday, 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.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 37Influence of Human Factors in Software Quality and Productivity(2011) Fernández-Sanz,L.; Misra,S.Traditionally more effort has been devoted to technical and process aspects of software quality and productivity. However, in an activity like software development so intensive in workforce and so dependent on professionals' performance, it is strange that human and social factors affecting development teams have been attracted little attention. This paper is aimed at analyzing contributions in this area as well as providing empirical data from specific initiatives to know more about real practices and situation in software organizations. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 29Influence of Human Factors in Software Quality and Productivity(Springer-verlag Berlin, 2011) Fernandez-Sanz, Luis; Misra, SanjayTraditionally more effort has been devoted to technical and process aspects of software quality and productivity.

Although inspections detect the majority of defects in the early stages of the development process, this technique is not a common practice in the software industry, especially in small and medium enterprises. In this paper, we propose a model for the inspection process intended to be applicable and acceptable to both small and medium enterprises and large software organisations. The model was implemented in two organisations: one in a medium-scale company and the other one in a department of a big company where its feasibility and benefits were confirmed. A comparison with recent alternative inspection models has also been performed showing the practicality of the proposal and ease of adoption and cost-effectiveness.
