Methodology
In this study, it has reviewed the literature to examine the
relationship between software maintenance practices and software quality
as well as the effects of software maintenance expenditures and
timelines on software development. It has looked through a variety of
sources, including online databases like IEEE Xplore, ResearchGate, and
Google Scholar, to find pertinent research papers, books, and conference
proceedings on software maintenance and software quality. To focus the
search, it has added terms like software development, software quality,
and maintenance costs. Following a preliminary inspection of the search
results, the chosen papers are further assessed considering their
relevance to our study goals. Studies that were authored in English and
released between 1990 and 2021 were selected. Studies unrelated to
software maintenance and software quality or not pertinent to the study
goals were excluded.
Moreover, the chosen papers are analyzed to determine major themes and
conclusions about software maintenance practices, software quality, and
the effect of software maintenance budgets and schedules on software
development. To synthesize the data from the chosen studies and make
judgments regarding the study issues, a qualitative methodology is
adopted. To approve the viability of the investigation results, a few
case studies are investigated and examined included within the chosen to
inquire about articles. This case is used considers demonstrating the
key themes and discoveries of our investigation and to supply real-world
illustrations of software support methods and their effect on its
quality and development.
