Characterizing the differences between pre- and post- release versions of software
2011
Proceeding of the 33rd international conference on Software engineering - ICSE '11
Preserved Fulltext
We found each of these usage characteristics to differ between beta and post-release, and by adjusting for the differences, accuracy of field quality predictions for Windows improved by ~59%. ...
However, little is known about how usage characteristics relate to field quality and how usage characteristics differ between beta and post-release. ...
For Windows 7, the proportion of machines with these important usage characteristics differed significantly between the two pre-release versions and the post-release version. ...

In an empirical study of the post-release defect history of five Microsoft software systems, we found that failure-prone software entities are statistically correlated with code complexity measures. ...
Using principal component analysis on the code metrics, we built regression models that accurately predict the likelihood of post-release defects for new entities. ...

Based on a sample of 270 startups that entered the Security Software Industry from 1989 till 1998, we find evidence that surviving entities are those that more aggressively adopt versioning and product ...
In short, the recipe for startups' survival is a fine mix of pre-entry technological capabilities and stable post-entry product strategies. ...

Code defects introduced during the development of the software system can result in failures after its release. ...
INTRODUCTION Faulty changes, made during the development of the software system, must be detected and fixed before the system is released. Otherwise they can cause post-release failures. ...
