Descripción
To date, research and practice on software quality has been mainly focused on static aspects of centralised software development, that is, aspects that are resolved at compilation time for an application running on a single computer. However, advances in distributed computing technology have made it now possible to develop applications that, using appropriate communication infrastructure, are built from architectural-level components and execute on heterogeneous platforms. This introduces new possible communication types between remote components of a running application and, consequently, new design possibilities for developers of distributed systems. In this paper, we first identify standard software quality attributes that show dynamic aspects from the distributed point of view, and we focus on three efficiency, reliability and maintainability - that we argue are affected by the choice of communication type between cooperative distributed components. Then, we attempt to quantify the effect of the choice of three communication types and establish estimators in terms of the response time, or the probability of non-failure, or the mean time between changes of software components.
