Following the general idea applied in medicine, an informal approach to reduce uncertainties concerning product functions and handled data has been applied to improve software product quality. If symptoms of software ‘disease’ are learnt then the proper diagnosis and therapy may be specified. Various forms of user centeredness in a software process are discussed.
