Systems and software engineering - Systems and software quality requirements and evaluation (SQuaRE) - System and software quality models (Adopted ISO/IEC 25010:2011, first edition, 2011-03-01)

CSA OnDemand™ annual subscription keeps you up-to-date with the latest editions of standards. Designed for organizations requiring access to 10 or more standards for 10 or more users, it includes all supported languages and archive versions.

Standards development within the Information Technology sector is harmonized with international standards development. Through the CSA Technical Committee on Information Technology (TCIT), Canadians serve as the Canadian Advisory Committee (CAC) on ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 on Information Technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) for the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), the ISO member body for Canada and sponsor of the Canadian National Committee of the IEC. Also, as a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Canada participates in the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (ITU-T).

ESPRIT is a global leader in high-performance computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software. ESPRIT is a cloud-enabled CAD/CAM software compatible with a full range of machine tool applications in a wide array of industries. ESPRIT delivers powerful full-spectrum programming for 2-5 axis milling, 2-22 axis turning, wire EDM, multitasking, mill-turn, Swiss-turn and B-axis machine tools, and high-speed 3 and 5-axis machining. Esprit offers factory certified post processors, accurate G-code, and world-class customer support.

The scope of the models excludes purely functional properties (see C.6), but it does include functional suitability (see 4.2.1).

ESPRIT provides users with ESPRIT FX™, which is the latest in advanced CAD to CAM feature exchange technology. Going beyond transferring just the part geometry, the FX™ technology provides portions of the original Autodesk® Inventor® software Feature Tree directly inside the ESPRIT user interface thereby including the complete original design intent—features, tolerances, material properties, surface finishes, administrative data, etc.

This International Standard was reviewed by the CSA TCIT under the jurisdiction of the Strategic Steering Committee on Information Technology and deemed acceptable for use in Canada. From time to time, ISO/IEC may publish addenda, corrigenda, etc. The CSA TCIT will review these documents for approval and publication. For a listing, refer to the CSA Information Products catalogue or CSA Info Update or contact a CSA Sales representative. This Standard has been formally approved, without modification, by the Technical Committee and has been approved as a National Standard of Canada by the Standards Council of Canada.

The ESPRIT CAM system reflects over 20 years of research and development, and ESPRIT’s partnerships with the world’s premiere machine tool builders confirm the leading position ESPRIT has earned in the CAM software market. CNC programmers in every manufacturing sector, from medical to aerospace, rely on ESPRIT to meet their demanding machine tool programming requirements.

a) A quality in use model composed of five characteristics (some of which are further subdivided into subcharacteristics) that relate to the outcome of interaction when a product is used in a particular context of use. This system model is applicable to the complete human-computer system, including both computer systems in use and software products in use.

NOTE Although the scope of the product quality model is intended to be software and computer systems, many of the characteristics are also relevant to wider systems and services. ISO/IEC 25012 contains a model for data quality that is complementary to this model.

The scope of application of the quality models includes supporting specification and evaluation of software and software-intensive computer systems from different perspectives by those associated with their acquisition, requirements, development, use, evaluation, support, maintenance, quality assurance and control, and audit. The models can, for example, be used by developers, acquirers, quality assurance and control staff and independent evaluators, particularly those responsible for specifying and evaluating software product quality.

The characteristics defined by both models are relevant to all software products and computer systems. The characteristics and subcharacteristics provide consistent terminology for specifying, measuring and evaluating system and software product quality. They also provide a set of quality characteristics against which stated quality requirements can be compared for completeness.

DP Technology Corp., maker of ESPRIT CAD/CAM software, maintains its worldwide headquarters in Camarillo, California, and product development teams in California, Florence, Italy, and Berlin, Germany. Sales and support operations are located in Europe, Asia, and North and South America.

At the time of publication, ISO/IEC 25010:2011 is available from ISO and IEC in English only. CSA will publish the French version when it becomes available from ISO and IEC.

b) A product quality model composed of eight characteristics (which are further subdivided into subcharacteristics) that relate to static properties of software and dynamic properties of the computer system. The model is applicable to both computer systems and software products.
