Quality models for Websites: theories and criteria of evaluation
Biscoglio IMany approaches to Quality Models for Websites have individualized different characteristics which often make reference to few concepts, as Usability, Content, Navigability, Management and Relationality; these concepts in fact assemble characteristics which probably are not totally independent, and which, though presented with different labels, have similar meanings or recall the same concept. In this work a short survey is introduced about Websites Quality Models: for every Websites Quality Models, the characteristics and their meanings are considered. From the observation of these approaches, it is possible to define an "ideal" Quality Model, to be used as an operative reference, with defined goals and independent, comprehensible, adoptable, and measurable criteria

Reducing textual ambiguity risk in high-impact standards.
Biscoglio I, Fusani MSafety-related standards indirectly impact into people's safety and environment integrity. The quality of these standards plays an important role in their correct and productive adoption. The paper is concerned with the analysis of the way standards are written, and in particular with the results of an automated textual inspection of five safety-related standards, aimed to discover possible inherent ambiguity of textual expressions. The analysis suggested that useful advice could be given to standard-making committees. Results of the analysis are shown and discussed.

PRESTO4U - Research Outputs Assessments v2
Bailer W, Biscoglio I, Boch L, Borgotallo R, Chakravarthy A, Falchi F, Gallo F, Ligios L, Laurenson P, Melas P, Pellegrino JProject Deliverable 3. 3 Presto4U Research Output Assessments v 2 4 Scope The long -term preservat ion of digital audio- visual media presents a range of complex technological, organisational, economic and rights -related issues, which have been the subject of intensive research over the past fifteen years at national, European and international levels. A lthough good solutions are emerging, and there is a large body of expertise at a few specialist centres, it is very difficult for the great majority of media owners to gain access to advanced audio- visual preservation technologies. This deliverable 'Resear ch Outputs Assessment v 2' will describe the research outputs identified in year 2 of Presto4U, and which have the potential to address CoP needs and requirements. This document will also describe in detail, results of the assessment exercise carried out on identified ROs. The methodology for assessing these tools has been established as part of WP3 task T3.1 'Research Outcomes Assessment Methodology' documented in deliverable D3.1 'Specification of Assessment Criteria, Metrics, Processes, Datasets and Facil ities'. The deliverable is a direct outcome of Task 3.2 'Preservation Research Technology and Assessment'. The purpose of which is to identify and assess research outputs to establish their readiness for take -up. This deliverable is an update on D3.2 -- the lessons learnt in terms of assessment of tools from Year 1 are presented here. This is through updated test templates and improved tests in terms of their functional testing. Some of the tools needed to be re- tested in year 2 because of the updated tes t assessme nt templates. We also introduce two new categories of tools technical metadata extractors and vocabulary mapping. Further, the final Presto4U dataset is also described as part of this deliverable. A combination of open source free to download dat asets and in- house produced files turned out to be the ideal dataset for the testing of these ROs. Finally we present the results of the tool testing performed after collaboration with commercial vendors to test two hardware storage mechanisms (LTO6 and Optical Drives)Project(s): PRESTO4U

Certificazione del software fiscale. Un'esperienza italiana di certificazione conforme alla legislazione fiscale.
Biscoglio I, Trentanni GThis paper presents the Italian scenario of cash register software certification. The basic concepts of certification are introduced together with involved actors, requirements and possible objects to be certified. Subsequently, the specific kind of fiscal device running fiscal software, that is the cash register, is outlined, and its certification process is described. The current technological adjustments of the cash register software according to the Italian legislation modifications are introduced and discussed.

Establishing a quality model-based evaluation process for Websites
Biscoglio I, Fusani M, Lami G, Trentanni GThis paper presents the main aspects of an ongoing project, aimed at defining a website independent evaluation process as a part of the mission of a service-providing organization. The process uses as reference a quality model that is defined starting from existing proposals and general requirements for quality models. The problem of integrating human judgment and automation in the evaluation process is also introduced, and technical solutions, involving the use of experimental work, are discussed.

Can safety be obtained through good practices for requirement writing?
Biscoglio I, Fusani M, Gnesi SSoftware Requirements analysis of quality characteristics as completeness, consistency and unambiguity assume an important role in the safety-critical software. We consider then the contributions to Natural Lan-guage (NL) Software Requirements Analysis as good practices or recommendations for producing high level quality NL requirements. From a survey of different approaches and solutions, it is possible to draw an incremental list of Good Practices (GP) for writing NL software requirements, making them understandable to their users, typically from the linguistic point of view, thus reducing the efforts for the analysis. The industrial experiences of two research/service laboratories about requirements analysis are compared with the suggestions of the literature and the technology, and the results are shown.

PRESTO4U - Research Outputs Assessments v1
Bailer W, Biscoglio I, Boch L, Borgotallo R, Chakravarthy A, Foster S, Falchi F, Gallo F, Ligios L, Laurenson P, Marchetti E, Melas P, Rendina M, Walland PThe long - term preservation of digital audio - visu al media presents a range of complex technological, organisational, economic and rights - related issues, which have been the subject of intensive research over the past fifteen years at national, European and international levels. Although good solutions ar e emerging, and there is a large body of expertise at a few specialist centres, it is very difficult for the great majority of media owners to gain access to advanced audio - visual preservation technologies. This deliverable 'Research Outputs Assessment v1' will describe the research outputs identified in year 1 of Presto4U, and which have the potential to address CoP needs and requirements. This document will also describe in detail, results of the assessment exercise carried out on identified ROs. The meth odology for assessing these tools has been established as part of WP3 task T3.1 'Research Outcomes Assessment Methodology' documented in deliverable D3.1 'Specification of Assessment Criteria, Metrics, Processes, Datasets and Facilities'. The deliverable is a direct outcome of Task 3.2 'Preservation Research Technology and Assessment'. The purpose of which is to identify and assess research outputs to establish their readiness for take - up. Part of the task also involves creating an initial dataset for Pre sto4U which initially can be used by the ROs being assessed, and it is envisaged to be released as a public dataset at the end of the project in year 2. The details of the year 1 dataset are provided in this deliverable. Further, we report on technology tr acking and mapping exercise conducted during year 1 and the tools which have been developed to enable this task. We would like to note that this kind of activity has not been performed before and for this reason why the deliverable is released in two itera tions (year 1 and end of year 2). Any shortcomings of the work done in year 1 will be addressed in the next iteration. The assessment methodology will also need to be changed as more needs are gathered from the Communities of Practice during the course of year 2. This deliverable is a first attempt at formalising a methodology for assessment of research outputs in the AV preservation domains and map them to the needs from the CoPs.Project(s): PRESTO4U
