Abstract

This article presents an innovative approach to the determination of a core set of Quality Measure Elements (QME), and a comparative analysis aimed at enhancing applicability of ISO/I E C 25021, which are critical to the ISO/I E C 25000 SQuaRE series of standards. The research presents the methodology, allowing for moving from an outdated and extensive set of measures, to a core list of base measures, which can be further diversified through contexts of use, parameters, and considerably simplify the development of derived measures.
