Evaluating websites using a practical quality model.
… methods and criteria for evaluating website quality are not able to sufficiently assess the performance and quality of a website, and most of them focus on usability and accessibility. This thesis aims at proposing the website quality metrics and methods to measure the website interface and …

A cost quality model for CMOS IC design
… this design methodology, a mathematical model is required to evaluate alternate designs. This research proposes an evaluation measure: the cost quality model. The cost quality model extends known test quality and testability estimation measures for gate-level circuits to switch-level …

Software quality model for the evaluation of semantic technologies
In order to obtain high-quality software products, the specification and evaluation of quality during the software development process is of crucial importance. One important component in software evaluation is the software quality model, since it provides the basis for software evaluation and …

Fuzzy Logic Based Software Product Quality Model for Execution Tracing
… carried out in the area of software product quality modelling. Its main endeavour is to consider software product quality with regard to maintainability. Supporting this aim, execution tracing quality, which is a neglected property of the software product quality at present in the quality …

A Life Cycle Software Quality Model Using Bayesian Belief Networks
… consistent approach to assessing and predicting quality within their products. This research proposes a software quality model that accounts for the influences of development team skill/experience, process maturity, and problem complexity throughout the software engineering life cycle. The model …

Spring Hollow Reservoir: Application of a two-dimensional water quality model
The BETTER water quality model, created by TVA, was used to model the temperature and dissolved oxygen (DO) in Spring Hollow Reservoir. The water balance consisted of pump discharge from the Roanoke River, runoff, releases at the dam, leakage, and storage. The geometry of the reservoir was …

A Bayesian stormwater quality model and its application to water quality monitoring
… the pre-development hydrologic and water quality characteristics of the drainage areas. Understanding of the systems' treatment capabilities is required for stormwater management. The goal of this research was to study the application of a decay treatment model as a conceptual tool for …

Modification of an ambient air quality model for assessment of US naval aviation emittants.
Two programs which form part of a generalized air quality assessment model for USAF operations were obtained and analyzed. Areas of incompatibility with USN aircraft operations were identified and modified to closely approximate these operations. Data were obtained by observation of operations at a …

Estimating Uncertainty in HSPF based Water Quality Model: Application of Monte-Carlo Based Techniques
… for the uncertainty estimation in water quality modeling as related to TMDL development, four Monte Carlo (MC) based techniques—single-phase MC, two-phase MC, Generalized Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE), and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) —were applied to a Hydrological …

The influence of organisational ambidexterity on transformational government in Zimbabwe : Towards a municipal information quality model
… Ambidexterity on municipal information quality towards realisation of public value. To this end, a municipal information quality model (MunINFORQUAL) was developed. Embracing the theory of dynamic capabilities, IS Success theory and public value theory helped in the analysis of the …

A water quality model for shallow river-lake systems and its application in river basin management
… the development and application of a new model for simulating mass transport and turnover in rivers and shallow lakes. The simulation tool called 'TRAM' is intended to complement mesoscale eco-hydrological catchment models in studies on river basin management. TRAM aims at describing the …

A Complex, Linked Watershed-Reservoir Hydrology and Water Quality Model Application for the Occoquan Watershed, Virginia
… the greater Washington D.C. region. The Occoquan model, consisting of six HSPF and two CE-QUAL-W2 submodels linked in a complex way, has been developed and applied to simulate hydrology and water quality activities in the two major reservoirs and the associated drainage areas. The studied water …

Implementing and Improved Soil NOx Parameterization in the Community Multiscale Air Quality Model: Implications for Air Pollution
Soil NO emissions are critical to accurate atmospheric simulations which inform decisions to protect human health. Several studies indicate that the scheme, Yienger and Levy 1995 (YL95), underestimates soil NO emissions by a significant amount. The Berkeley Dalhousie Soil NOx Parameterization …

Modification of the Field Moisture Balance Water Quality model (FMBWQ) to simulate subsurface drainage and preferential flow
… flow subroutine to FMBWQ. Under these modeling conditions, the following specific objectives were laid out: 1) to improve or replace the existing tile flow subroutine of FMBWQ; 2) to add a simplified preferential flow subroutine to FMBWQ; 3) to calibrate the modified FMBWQ for tile flow …
