Software Crisis Software crisis was a term used in the early days of computing science. The term was used to describe the impact of rapid increases in computer power and the complexity of the problems which could be tackled. In essence‚ it refers to the difficulty of writing correct‚ understandable‚ and verifiable computer programs. The roots of the software crisis are complexity‚ expectations‚ and change. The major cause of the software crisis is that the machines have become several orders

College Of Engineering‚Guindy Abstract: This paper presents the results derived from our survey on metrics used in object–oriented environments. Our survey includes a small set of the most well known and commonly applied traditional software metrics which could be applied to object–oriented programming and a set of object–oriented metrics (i.e. those designed specifically for object–oriented programming). Given the central role that software development plays in the delivery

genetically modified organism (GMO) is a plant‚ animal or microorganism whose genetic code has been altered‚ subtracted‚ or added (either from the same species or a different species) in order to give it characteristics that it does not have normally. A GMO is created when DNA from one organism is combined with another organism’s DNA to make one molecule. With genetic engineering they can make bigger and more nutritious fruit and vegetables. Human embryos can be genetically modified in case it might have

Quality in the Software Development Industry of Sri Lanka Sahan Jayawarna A.T. Fonseka Abstract The software development industry of Sri Lanka has grown rapidly during recent years. However‚ the quality of software products has become a critical issue as shown in the increase in software defects and associated solutions for those problems. This study aimed at understanding the critical factors underlying software product quality. It was based on a survey of ten software development companies

------------------------------------------------- Genetically modified crops Genetically modified crops (GM crops‚ or biotech crops) are plants‚ the DNA of which has been modified using genetic engineeringtechniques‚ to resist pests and agents causing harm to plants and to improve the growth of these plants to assist in farmers efficiency. Genetic engineering techniques are much more precise[1] than mutagenesis (mutation breeding) where an organism is exposed to radiation or chemicals to create

By Wendy Du GM Foods as a possible solution for world hungry 1. Introduction Genetically modified foods are foods derived from genetically modified organisms (GMOS). GMOS have had particular turns led to their DNA by genetic engineering techniques.In fact‚GM foods are already becoming a part of our life.(Maessen‚ 1997) The 2010 estimate‚ the most recent‚ says that 925 million people were undernourished in 2010 (FAO 2010). There are clearly some very real issues that need

CHAPTER III METHODOLOGY This chapter presents the methodology of the study including the design‚ respondents‚ instrumentation‚ and procedure. Method To compose a solid grounding of the study‚ the researchers look for the most applicable method of research. The researchers are to gather data by observation and use of questionnaires. Therefore‚ the proponent will use questionnaire to collect factual‚ accurate and systematic data that can be used in computing averages and similar statistical calculations

probabilistic approach to finding failure-causing inputs based on Bayesian estimation. According to our probabilistic insights of software testing‚ the test case generation algorithms are developed by Markov chain Mote Carlo (MCMC) methods. Dissimilar to existing random testing schemes such as adaptive random testing‚ our approach can also utilize the prior knowledge on software testing. In experiments‚ we compare effectiveness of our MCMC-based random testing with both ordinary random testing and adaptive
