ABSTRACT: Changing requirements of customer needs establishes the need toanalyze impact of requirement changes. For success of anysoftware requirement analysis is very essential. In this paper, wepropose a four stage method engineering process which aims atestimating impact of change. The process model described is alinear layered model. Impact sets are computed by analyzingdependency tractability relations with other connected methodcomponents. The results produced provide two type ofinformation (a) added, deleted, modified methods (b) depth(extent) of impact on the system.

ABSTRACT: A process is not a static entity. Improving the quality and reducing the cost of products are fundamental goals of software engineering discipline. As the qualities are determined by the process to satisfy the objectives of quality improvement and cost reduction, the software process must be improved. Nowadays it has been widely accepted that the quality of software highly depends on the process that is carried out in an organization. As part of the effort to support software process engineering activities, the research on software process modeling is to provide an effective means to represent and analyze a process and, by doing so, to enhance the understanding of the modeled process. Thus the enforcement of the process model can directly contribute to the improvement of the software quality. The process must be improved on the basis of past experience on software projects. The activity of analyzing and improving the process is largely done in process development component of the software process. From time to time so many software process models has been developed in order to maintain reliability and quality of software .Our research work focus on a new proposed software process model for BPO software application which is based on BPO software industries. Such software are based on Gensys technology which interact with Interactive Voice Response (IVR), Computer Telephony Integration (CTI), Call Recording, Call Monitoring, Call Center Analytics / Performance Management, Workforce/Agent Management and others.

ABSTRACT: Software evolution is an ongoing process carried out by softwaremaintainer’s in order to meet the increasing demand, pressureand requirements for extending base applications for adding newfunctionalities, for fixing bugs or for adapting software to thechanging environments. As a result, it establishes the need forestimating and determining the impact of changes on the overallsoftware system. Impact Analysis is a way to estimate the impactof such changes either before or after the change is made. In thelast few decades many such techniques and tools (both static anddynamic) have been proposed. In this paper we propose a newonline dynamic impact analysis technique called DefinitionUsage-Regression Test Selection (DU-Regs), which collectsimpact traces completely online i.e. during execution. It works atstatement level rather than on method level to capture moreprecise impact sets and at the same time, provides the support forimpact visualization for regression testing.

ABSTRACT: In this paper we propose a technique to distribute faulty slicesamong available n debuggers for simultaneous debugging. Wepresent a three level model to distribute debugging taskefficiently among debuggers by (a) estimating capacity of task tobe allocated to an individual debugger (b) measuring similarityand assigning priority to each faulty slice to minimizeredundancy of debugging task(c) uniformly distributing faultyslices by arranging them in task queues. For this we present analgorithm and an example to prove effectiveness and efficiencyof the presented approach.

ABSTRACT: This paper presents the framework for incremental Effort based development in order to analysis the productivity gain in Effort based development. Effort estimation is a challenge in every software project. The estimates will impact costs and expectations on schedule, functionality and quality. While expert estimates are widely used, they are difficult to analyze and the estimation quality depends on the experience of experts from similar projects. Alternatively, more formal estimation models can be used. Traditionally, software size estimated in the number of Source Lines of Code (SLOC), Function Points (FP) and Object Points (OP) are used as input to these models. Models that predict product size as an exponential function of the development effort are used in the paper to explore the relationships between effort and the number of increments. The author mainly focus what will be effect on productivity rate on incremental development and how duration for incremental software development vary .For incremental development the author estimate the cumulative effort gain against effort estimation . This research paper will be helpful to get productivity rate against incremental effort estimation.
