Popis: | The purpose of this study is to quantify the quality of the Arabized open source software with respect to its original version in the Arability framework, which aims to control the quality of Arabic and Arabized software. As a case study, the Arability degree of usability for the open source Php My Bibli integrated library system (OS PMB ILS) is computed based on responses collected via a questionnaire from Arab librarians who either use the original French PMB or test the underdeveloped Arabized version. The usability of the original and Arabized PMB is quantified using the ISO quality model and fuzzy multi criteria technique. Then the Arability degree of usability for Arabized PMB is computed. The results show that the quality of the Arabized PMB does not match that of the original and it requires some improvement. Therefore, this paper offers an approach to quantifying Arability degree of usability for Arabized open source software. |
