ABSTRACT
Software Quality Assurance can mean a lot of things
to a lot of people. "Software quality, once the sub-
ject of many jokes, is a life and death matter now -
Glenford J. Myers". In this seminar we discuss com-
mon causes of poor quality software. Software quali-
ty is discussed in terms of metrics. It is shown
that by properly prioritizing the desired quality
factors, software quality can be aimed for and imple-
mented in the program development cycle.
