This paper presents an evaluation methodology to reveal the relationships between the attributes of software products, practices applied during the development phase and the user evaluation of the products. For the case study, the games sector has been chosen due to easy access to the user evaluation of this type of software products. Product attributes and practices applied during the development phase have been collected from the developers via questionnaires. User evaluation results were collected from a group of independent evaluators. Two bipartite networks were created using the gathered data. The first network maps software products to the practices applied during the development phase and the second network maps the products to the product attributes. According to the links, similarities were determined and subgroups of products were obtained according to selected development phase practices. By this way, the effect of development phase on the user evaluation has been investigated.

Using software quality characteristics to measure business process quality
Guceglioglu, AS; Demirörs, Onur (2005-01-01)
Organizations frequently use product based organizational performance models to measure the effects of information system (IS) on their organizations. This paper introduces a complementary process based approach that is founded on measuring business process quality attributes. These quality attributes are defined on the basis of ISO/IEC 9126 Software Product Quality Model. The new process quality attributes are applied in an experiment and results are discussed in the paper.
Integrating multi-period quantity flexibility contracts with a capacitated production and inventory planning
Kayhan, Mehmet; Kayalıgil, Sinan; Department of Industrial Engineering (2008)
This research introduces a general approach for integrating a probabilistic model of the changes in the committed orders with an analytical model of production and inventory planning under multi-period Quantity Flexibility contracts. We study a decentralized structure where a capacitated manufacturer, capable of subcontracting, serves multiple contract buyers who actually perform forecasts on a rolling horizon basis. We model the evolution of buyers' commitments as a multiplicative forecast evolution proces...
Linking EFL learning environment characteristics to persistence in EFL learning: a mixed-design study
Mutlu, Gülçin; Güneri, Oya; Department of Educational Sciences (2017)
This study aims to investigate learning environment characteristics that may relate to persistence in EFL learning as a student affective outcome through qualitative and quantitative facets. An EFL Learning Environment Questionnaire and a Persistence Scale in EFL learning were used to investigate learning environment characteristics and persistence. In addition, qualitative interviews were carried out to describe these characteristics and persistence in EFL learning. The sample for this mixed-design study i...
Aligning learning design and learning analytics through instructor involvement: a MOOC case study
Gomez-Sanchez, Eduardo; Er, Erkan; Dimitriadis, Yannis; Bote-Lorenzo, Miguel L.; Asensio-Perez, Juan I.; Alvarez-Alvarez, Susana (2019-08-01)
This paper presents the findings of a mixed-methods research that explored the potentials emerging from aligning learning design (LD) and learning analytics (LA) during the design of a predictive analytics solution and from involving the instructors in the design process. The context was a past massive open online course, where the learner data and the instructors were accessible for posterior analysis and additional data collection. Through a close collaboration with the instructors, the details of the pre...
An Emprical examination for collaborative nature of business process modeling
Fındık Coşkunçay, Duygu; Çakır, Murat Perit; Department of Information Systems (2016)
In this study, factors that contribute to interaction quality of collaborative group members in a computer-supported collaborative business process modeling context were investigated with qualitative and quantitative methods. Initially, interaction quality factors were identified based on a review of related theoretical frameworks and qualitative analysis of log files from a dual eye-tracking experiment. A rating scheme was then developed to assess the quality of group interactions. A research model, that r...
