On Applying Fuzzy Sets in the Evaluation Process of Object-Oriented Supporting CASE Tools

The 21st EUROMICRO Conference, Como, Italy, September 1995, pp. 572-579.

Abstract: This paper describes the architecture of a quality evaluation procedure for CASE products. The procedure is based on the ISO software product quality evaluation process model, which has been extended using fuzzy sets theory for achieving more reliable results. Fuzzy sets are employed to express concepts such as the strength of each criterion involved in the evaluation, its relative importance, etc. The produced results are tolerant to small changes of the evaluation procedure inputs, which are by nature imprecise. The evaluation procedure architecture is modular while the fuzzy rules and the definition of the used fuzzy sets can be easily modified by the user for accurately describing the requirements of the target system.
