Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and apparatus that quantitatively assesses the impact of a project change request to software quality including determining at least one initial project request defect value based on an initial project request effort value and a defect insertion rate, determining at least one project change request defect value based on a project change request effort value and the defect insertion rate, comparing at least one project change request defect value to at least one initial project request defect value, and providing a quality impact value based on the result of the comparison.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to a method for identifying optimal influential paths in a distributed network for transmitting information/request to one or more target nodes. The routing server at the source node identifies one or more target nodes in the network based on information. Thereafter, routing server identifies one or more optimal nodes based on influence value associated with each node in network and determines predicted action that will be performed by the optimal node and transmits the information to each optimal node. Each optimal node performs an action upon receiving the information from the source node. The routing server receives the data related to the operation performed and updates influence value associated with respective nodes. The routing server identifies one or more optimal paths based on one of the influence value being updated and the action performed by each optimal node.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to a method for transmitting information on priority basis to one or more nodes in distributed network. The routing server at source node generates one or more set of nodes from plurality of nodes based on reputation value. The routing server identifies first set of nodes with highest reputation value, determines predicted action to be perforrmed by each node. The routing server transmits information to each node in first set. Each node performs an action. The routing server computes the difference between the predicted action and action performed by each node in the first set and updates the reputation value of each node in the first set. Thereafter, routing server transmits the information the second set, third set and so on.
