Abstract


Quality is an essential determinant of the success of every type of software and social Web applications are not an exception. It is therefore of great importance that the examination of the degree to which social Web applications meet predefined requirements related to particular facets of quality is performed effectively and frequently. With an objective to facilitate evaluation procedure and enable comparison of social Web applications at all levels of the quality model, we initiated a research into development of a methodology that will aggregate quality requirements into a single score. The work presented in this paper draws on the employment of the logic scoring of preference (LSP) method and outlines only some parts of the aforementioned methodology. After identifying quality attributes that constitute the requirement tree, elementary criteria for both objective and subjective performance variables were introduced. As a follow up, field experts were included in the study in order to determine weights of performance variables within particular performance subsystem. Finally, the appropriate logic aggregation operators were selected based on the relevance of performance variables
