A computational framework for predicting software quality-in-use from software reviews

Software Quality-in-Use (QinU) lies in the eyes of its users. QinU has gained its importance in egovernment, mobile-based, and web applications. Currently, QinU is measured using either ISO standard (e.g. ISO 25010) or customized model approaches. These approaches tend to be incomplete and suffer...

QinU has gained its importance in egovernment, mobile-based, and web applications. Currently, QinU is measured using either ISO standard (e.g. ISO 25010) or customized model approaches.

description Software Quality-in-Use (QinU) lies in the eyes of its users. QinU has gained its importance in egovernment, mobile-based, and web applications.
