Abstract

In software engineering software quality has become a topic of major concern. It has also been recognized that the role of maintenance organization is to understand and estimate the cost of maintenance releases of software systems. Planning the next release so as to maximize the increase in functionality and the improvement in quality are essential to successful maintenance management. With the growing collection of software in organizations this cost is becoming substantial. In this research we have compared two software quality models. We tried to see whether a model built on entire system which predicts subsystem and a model built on subsystem which predicts the same subsystem has similar, better or worst classification results. We used Classification And Regression Tree algorithm (CART) to build classification models. A case study is based on a very large telecommunication system.
