MODIFIED ISO/IEC 25010 SOFTWARE QUALITY ASSURANCE MODEL IN THE LIGHT OF INTERNET OF THINGS

摘要

With the dawn of the smart age, the development and emergence of technologies have climbed up to a pinnacle. As a result, Internet of Things(IoT) is reached to maximum connectivity with heterogeneous and enormous size of devices. With increasing connectedness and characteristics of IoT the quality of service has become a crucial parameter. Due to characteristics of Internet of Things, IoT applications rises additional features as compared to traditional software applications. The traditional software quality models are not as it is applicable to evaluate the quality of IoT applications. The traditional software quality models need to be enhanced to evaluate the quality of IoT applications. The existing ISO 9126 quality model and ISO 25010 model have not focused on the IoT application characteristics like a) intelligent hardware devices b) software-hardware collaboration c) networked, wireless and mobile connectivity d) remote monitoring for IoT devices e) Limited battery and memory. This work introduces an approach to design the Quality Assurance Framework to evaluate the quality factors of IoT applications based on existing quality assurance models which can be further incorporated in IoT Governance.
