| dc.description.abstract | This report presents the research carried out in the area of software product quality modelling. Its main endeavour is to consider software product quality with regard to maintainability. Supporting this aim, execution tracing quality, which is a neglected property of the software product quality at present in the quality frameworks under investigation, needs to be described by a model that offers possibilities to link to the overall software product quality frameworks. The report includes concise description of the research objectives: (1) the thorough investigation of software product quality frameworks from the point of view of the quality property analysability with regard to execution tracing; (2) moreover, extension possibilities of software product quality frameworks, and (3) a pilot quality model developed for execution tracing quality, which is capable to capture subjective uncertainty associated with the software quality measurement. The report closes with concluding remarks: (1) the present software quality frameworks do not exhibit any property to describe execution tracing quality, (2) execution tracing has a significant impact on the analysability of software systems that increases with the complexity, and (3) the uncertainty associated with execution tracing quality can adequately be expressed by type-1 fuzzy logic. The section potential future work outlines directions into which the research could be continued. Findings of the research were summarized in two research reports, which were also incorporated in the thesis, and submitted for publication: 1.
