A Source-Code Maintainability Evaluation Model for Software Products
Science, Engineering and Technology, 2023 The maintainability index (MI) has been proposed to calculate a single number which expresses the maintainability of a system. This article presents a model for evaluating the maintainability of software products.

Maintaining software with a security perspective [PDF]
International Conference on Software Maintenance, 2002. Proceedings., 2002 Testing for software security is a lengthy, complex and costly process. Currently, security testing is done using penetration analysis and formal verification of security kernels. These methods are not complete and are difficult to use. Hence it is essential to focus testing effort in areas that have a greater number of security vulnerabilities to ...
