Quality assessment source code SWAN
Swan is a third-generation wave model developed at Delft University. For new development(s) to be included in the authorised Swan version, programming guidelines should be followed. For a sound Quality assessment a judgement of all parts of the SWAN system is necessary. This assessment is only a pilot study: a quality assessment of a small part the source code, representative for the main part of the SWAN system. It is a step in the process of further improvement of the SWAN system, aimed to acquire an official quality mark. This study demonstrates various options for retrieving a good view in the quality of the source code of SWAN with respect to source code documentation, program structure and use of the SWAN programming protocol.
