Ruqia Bibi, Munazza Jannisar Khan, Muhammad Nadeem Majeed · 2014
Abstract — The design quality holds a decisive influence on success of product. Our work is comprehensive study of software metrics to evaluate quality in the design phase which will be beneficial to find, repair design problems and saves large amount of potential expenditure. This paper evaluates employment of several design methods such as Robust Engineering Design, Failure Mode and Effect Analysis etc., to ensure quality and minimize variation. It has also figured the use of emerging technologies, new materials and the adoption of a simultaneous approach to design. It introduces a quality attribute driven perspective on software architecture reconstruction. It is essential to elect and follow architectures that full fill specific concerns or required properties with a certain degree of confidence, as architecture and design models together, signifies the functional behavior of the system.
