Designing a Measurement Method for the Portability Non-Functional Requirement

AbuTalib, F., Giannacopoulos, D., Abran, A.

This paper proposes a measurement method to measure the non-functional portability software requirement.The proposed method complies with the COSMIC ISO 19761 measurement method standard. The details of the design steps are presented and explained.This paper includes an analysis and possible utilizations of the method results into the various estimation models.Applying the proposed method can be beneficial to estimate the development time and/or the quality assurance efforts to develop/certify portable software on the various environments supported.
