Quality models for Websites: theories and criteria of evaluation
Biscoglio I.
Many 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 criteriaSource: ISTI Technical reports, 2007

Approccio multidimensionale alla valutazione di qualità per siti WEB
Biscoglio I.
This Report is a part of a broader research that intends to reflect on a multidimensional approach to the websites quality evaluation, adopting techniques of statistical analysis. The broader research is in progress, and it is conducted on a sample of 331 B2c (business to consumer) e-commerce websites; the content of the report introduces the results of the statistical analysis which is conducted on a least sub sample (15 units); the purpose is that to make light on the multidimensional character of websites quality evaluation; with a so small sample and the adoption of a factorial analysis technique on 69 variables, the results should not be considered statistically significant for the conclusions that could solicit, but they want to entirely constitute the presentation of a broader experiment.Source: ISTI Technical reports, 2008

A case of adoption of 25000 standards family: Establishing evaluation requirements in the audio-visual preservation context
Biscoglio I., Marchetti E.
The digital preservation want to guarantee accessible and usable over time digital audio-visual media content, regardless of the challenges of media failure and technological change. For this aim, the current technologies for digital audio-visual media preservation deal with complex technological, organizational, economic and rights-related issues. Ensuring the development and use of high-quality software could be a key factor for their success. The paper reports an experience matured inside the Presto4U project, with the contribution of the TATE Gallery. Aim of the experiment was the identification of preservation needs and corresponding preservation requirements in order to set up a quality evaluation process for used software tools making easy the technology transfer of research results into digital preservation environment. Using the framework of the international standards on software products quality, the evaluation requirements were mapped on the characteristics and sub-characteristics of a quality model and a specification of high-level software product quality evaluation plan has been obtained and presented.Source: ICSOFT-EA 2014 - 9th International Conference on Software Engineering and Applications, pp. 222–233, Vienna, Austria, 29-31 Agosto 2014

Reducing textual ambiguity risk in high-impact standards.
Biscoglio I., Fusani M.
Safety-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.Source: Radìoelektronnì ì komp'ûternì sistemi 5 (2013): 198–203.

Project 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)Source: Project report, PRESTO4U, Deliverable D3.3, pp.1–139, 2014

E-COMWEB: a quality Model for e-commerce Web sites
Biscoglio I., Coco A., Trentanni G., Fusani M.
This paper introduces a statistical approach to the construction of a new Quality Model for Web Sites (E-COMWEB). A brief overview on Web Sites Quality Models and used top-down and bottom- up approaches are introduced. The approach to the construction of E-COMWEB is different from most of the current ones: exploiting the considerable number of available Web Sites, it uses statistical analysis for validating the relations between variables in a traditional Quality Model and finding new ones. The process for constructing such a newly conceived model and its composition are presented and discussed, and examples of its application are shown.Source: ISTI Technical reports, 2010

Can safety be obtained through good practices for requirement writing?
Biscoglio I., Fusani M., Gnesi S.
Software 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.Source: International Scientific Technical Conference on Dependable System, Services and Technologies, pp. 252–257, Sevastopol, Ukraine, 25-28 May 2012

Investigation on common software process weaknesses in automotive
Biscoglio I., Falcini F., Lami G.
This paper presents the results of an empirical study aimed at pointing out common weaknesses in software development in automotive industry. In automotive software development is mainly demanded to specialized software suppliers that are required by car makers to improve and measure the process quality of their projects by applying process models such as Automotive SPICETM. The authors, as Automotive SPICE assessors, have directly observed and analyzed specific software process improvement opportunities during a significant number of assessments performed at several organizations. This paper, that focuses specifically on the project management and quality assurance processes, is an initial step of a wider study that the authors are carrying out. Such a study aims at identifying, using data from automotive software development projects, common software development weaknesses having negative impact according Automotive SPICETM, in order to give a reference for improvement initiatives aimed at solving those weaknessesSource: ACM/IEEE International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement, pp. 110–117, Beijing, China, 22-23/10/2015

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 P.
The 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.Source: Project report, PRESTO4U, Deliverable D3.2, pp.1–134, 2013

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.Source: Project report, PRESTO4U, Deliverable D3.2, pp.1–134, 2013
