Abstract

Although general quality models are available, it is possible to construct a custom quality model. The set of metrics obtained from such quality model can then be used to evaluate candidates, whether designs, architectures or systems using a quality computation model. This paper adapts a quality computation model for this purpose, and discusses an example to demonstrate the same.
