To perform the analysis of system sustainability, the tool provides quantitative questionnaires for rating highlevel requirements within sustainability dimensions via a Fuzzy Rating Scale method. Stakeholders' responses are analysed by applying Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution. The tool presents sustainability as a five-star rating label, a visualisation of the degree for sustainability dimensions, and a bar graph that illustrates the sustainability level." links: "url": "https://www.ahmedalharthi.net/susoftpro-re18-poster/" researchr: "https://researchr.org/publication/AlharthiSuSoftPro2018" cites: 0 citedby: 0 booktitle: "the 26th IEEE International Requirements Engineering Conference (RE'18)" address: "Banff, Canada" organization: "IEEE" publisher: "IEEE" kind: "inproceedings" key: "AlharthiSuSoftPro2018" - title: "Gender-Based Perspectives of eLearning Systems: An Empirical Study of Social Sustainability" author: - name: "Ahmed D.

The most effective decisions related to sustainability of software can be made in the early stages of software development. To support these decisions, we introduce Sustainability Profiling for Software (SuSoftPro) tool that can assist in analysing sustainability require- ments. In this paper, we analyse the core features of SuSoftPro in comparison with two other approaches, which utilise Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis. We also present a case study we conducted using SuSoftPro: analysis of sustainability aspects of a Skin Cancer Information System.

To insure the sustainability of an eLearning system on both individual and social levels, we have to cover many aspects of sustainability requirements: human, technical, economic, and environmental. This paper provides a systematic literature review of the sustainability meta-requirements for eLearning systems to identify open problems and to present the state of the art of this research area. We analysed 124 papers, so we identified 18 high-level sustainability requirements for eLearning systems." researchr: "https://researchr.org/publication/AlharthiSLR2018" cites: 0 citedby: 0 journal: "Requirements Engineering" kind: "article" key: "AlharthiSLR2018" - title: "Sustainability Profiling of Long-living Software Systems" author: - name: "Ahmed D.

The goal of the framework is to analyse sustainability requirements for long-living software systems, focusing on usability and readability of the sustainability profiles. To achieve this goal, we apply a quantitate approach such as fuzzy rating scale-based questionnaires to rank the sustainability requirements, and the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) to analyse the results of questionnaires and to provide a basis for system profiling. The core profiling elements provided by our framework are (1) a sustainability five-star rating, (2) visualisation of the five sustainability dimensions as a pentagon graph detailing combination for individual, social, technical, economic and environmental dimensions, and (3) a bar graph of overall sustainability level for each requirement. To ensure sustainability, the proposed profiling framework covers the five dimensions of sustainability to quantify the sustainability of any software system not only during the requirement gathering phase but also during maintenance phase of software system lifecycle.
