E-learning was crucial during the global lockdown. In this way, article aims to propose and validate a holistic framework in which all services are needed ensure their effective implementation use. To end, an original 3S-T model, measure success based on self-student assessment, developed. This innovative reinforces existing theoretical of models, identifies wide array predictors relates them various measures that help reach success, including learning academic achievements. The validation...

Background: Most prediction models, e.g. effort estimation, require preprocessing of data. Some datasets, such as ISBSG, contain data quality meta-data which can be used to filter out low cases from the analysis. However, an agreement has not been reached yet between researchers about these selection criteria.Aims: This paper aims analyze influence criteria in number selected projects, have models obtained. For this, a case study gain more complete understanding what might important focus...
