Our colleagues Ana Díaz, Moisés Rodríguez and Mario Piattini have published the article Implementing an Environment for Hybrid Software Evaluation in the journal Science of Computer Programming.

This paper presents the first technological environment for measuring and evaluating the analyzability of hybrid software. As quantum software gains ground and relevance in various domains, it is essential to address the evaluation of hybrid systems that combine classical and quantum elements to ensure diverse quality characteristics.

Thus, the environment proposed in this paper stablishes a model, metrics and tools applicable in the field of quantum software to assess its analyzability, one of the subcharacteristics of maintainability defined in ISO/IEC 25000.

Furthermore, real-world examples of hybrid software are provided to showcase the functionality of the different tools in the environment, yielding readable and representative results for the evaluator.
