Measuring the Quality of B Abstract Machines with ISO/IEC 25010


الملخص بالإنكليزية

The B method has facilitated the development of software by specifying the design of software as abstract machines and formally verifying the correctness of the abstract machines. The quality of B abstract machines can significantly impact the quality of final software products. In this paper, we propose a set of criteria for measuring the quality of B abstract machines based on ISO/IEC 25010, which is one of the latest international standards for evaluating software quality in software engineering. These criteria evaluate abstract machines using a number of general-purpose and domain-independent equations and model checking techniques, so that the quality of abstract machines can be quantified as vectors. The proposed criteria are implemented as a B model quality evaluator, and they are explained and justified using a number of examples.
