Evaluating the Impact of Critical Factors in Agile Continuous Delivery Process: A System Dynamics Approach
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Continuous Delivery is aimed at the frequent delivery of good quality software in a speedy, reliable and efficient fashion – with strong emphasis on automation and team collaboration. However, even with this new paradigm, repeatability of project outcome is still not guaranteed: project performance varies due to the various interacting and inter-related factors in the Continuous Delivery 'system'. This paper presents results from the investigation of various factors, in particular agile practices, on the quality of the developed software in the Continuous Delivery process. Results show that customer involvement and the cognitive ability of the QA have the most significant individual effects on the quality of software in continuous delivery.

PAV: Parallel Average Voting Algorithm for Fault-Tolerant Systems
Fault-tolerant systems are such systems that can continue their operation, even in presence of faults. Redundancy as one of the main techniques in implementation of fault-tolerant control systems uses voting algorithms...
Effective Strategies for ROI and Image Matching
The paper presents an exceptional four matching strategies: systematic, random, gradient and simulated annealing using diferent metrics. We consider two kinds of image matching algorithms. The first one oriented on the w...
New Data Clustering Algorithm (NDCA)
