Sustainability and Quality: Icing on the Cake

In the literature several definitions of sustainability and software sustainability can be found. However, we think none of them can be applied to the software development context. For that reason, in this poster we cook some existing definitions and we will propose a new one specific for the software development. From this definition we try to create a new recipe, discovering how to combine sustainability and quality. As a result several questions arise. From the result of answering these questions, next steps on our research will be defined.
