   The Third International Workshop on Software Quality Improvement is 
co-organized by Joint System Development Corp. (JSD) and Japan Information
Service Industry Association (JISA) and is supported by The Research Institute
of Software Engineering. 

   It is aimed at better understanding of software quality via measurement 
and analysis based upon models of the software development process and
product. 

   The first and second days offer 15 invited papers on the area of emphasis
of this workshop. The emphasis in this third workshop will be on models,
measures and data for software process and product quality, productivity,
and reuse. The third day will be given for visiting to Japanese Companies.
The fourth and fifth days will be devoted to a set of group discussions
where participants will meet in four small groups to discuss experiences
in models and measures of quality, productivity and reuse.
