Measuring software sustainability
International Conference on Software Maintenance, 2003. ICSM 2003. Proceedings., 2004Planning and management of software sustainment is impaired by a lack of consistently applied, practical measures. Without these measures, it is impossible to determine the effect of efforts to improve sustainment practices. In this paper we provide a context for evaluating sustainability and discuss a set of measures developed at the Software ...

This article provides an overview of the basic concepts and state of the art of software measurement. Software measurement is an emerging field of software engineering, since it may provide support for planning, controlling, and improving the software development process, as needed in any industrial development process.

Measurement Theory and Software Measures
1992During the last years much attention has been directed toward the measurement process of the properties of software. Many software measures have been developed in order to determine the static complexity of single programs (intra-modular complexity) and entire software systems (inter-modular complexity) and many authors discussed the properties of ...

The problem of measurement in software engineering has been addressed by many authors, and one of the most common questions is, “Can we learn from measurement in physics and can we transform this to software engineering measurement?” (Zuse, 1997, 1998).

Software measurement helps to quantify the quality and the effectiveness of software to find areas of improvement and to provide information needed to make appropriate decisions. In the recent studies, software metrics are widely used for quality assessment. These metrics are divided into two categories: syntactic and semantic.

Software productivity measurement
Proceedings of the May 16-19, 1983, national computer conference on - AFIPS '83, 1983Productivity is a crucial concern for most organizations. This is especially true for software development organizations. Although the term productivity is widely used, the difficulty of defining it leads to serious problems in productivity measurement.

Abstract : This report examines the current state of development of automated software testing techniques. The report identifies and describes techniques that are useful for detecting errors in software. It also examines techniques for proving the correctness of programs, for debugging (locating and correcting errors), and for producing documentation ...

Measuring software flexibility
IEE Proceedings - Software, 2006Flexibility has been recognised as a desirable quality of software since the earliest days of software engineering. Classic and contemporary software design literature suggests that particular implementations are more flexible than others, but stops short of suggesting objective criteria for quantifying such claims.

Assurance is not a specific thing that can be easily measured and monitored. It is an emerging composition of a variety of independently collected data elements that come from loosely linked software life cycle activities. As a system emerges from concept to high-level design to architecture to detailed design to code to components to implementation ...

Software and Software Process Measurement
2018To investigate whether a (deployed) software process achieves its goals, some form of validation is needed. In many cases, a measurement program can provide a useful basis for such validation, providing information about performance and quality of software and software processes, and thus helping to find gap and identify improvement opportunities or ...
