About this ebook

This book constitutes the joint refereed proceedings of two colocated events: the First International Conference on the Quality of Software Architectures (QoSA 2005) and the Second International Workshop on Software Quality (SOQUA 2005) held in Erfurt, Germany, in September 2005. The 18 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 48 submissions. For QoSA 2005 only 12 papers - of the 31 submitted - were accepted for presentation; they are concerned with research and experiences that investigate the influence a specific software architecture has on software quality aspects. The papers are organized in topical sections on software architecture evaluation, formal approaches to model-driven QoS-handling, modelling QoS in software architectures, software architectures applied, architectural design for QoS, and model-driven software reliability estimation. The 6 papers accepted for SOQUA 2005 - from 17 submissions - mainly focus on quality assurance and on software testing. They are organized in topical sections on test case selection, model-based testing, unit testing, and performance testing.
