Software reliability measurement
Journal of Systems and Software, 1979The quantification of software reliability is needed for the system engineering of products involving computer programs and the scheduling and monitoring of software development. It is also valuable for the comparative evaluation of the effectiveness of various design, coding, testing, and documentation techniques.

Software complexity measurement
Communications of the ACM, 1986Inappropriate use of software complexity measures can have large, damaging effects by rewarding poor programming practices and demoralizing good programmers. Software complexity measures must be critically evaluated to determine the ways in which they can best be used.

Proceedings of the 3rd International Software Metrics Symposium, 2002
Explores problems in the measurement of evolving software systems. As these systems change through successive builds, the complexity characteristics of the individual modules that make up the system also change. A methodology is presented that extends the notion of software complexity domains across sequential builds.

Software reliability measurement
IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 1990The measurement and analysis aspects of software reliability are described with the aim of providing software engineers and managers a sense of where and how software reliability measurements can be applied to their projects. Some background for understanding software reliability measurement is provided, and activities associated with measuring and ...

Software Testing, Verification and Reliability, 1991
AbstractThere are two distinct notions of validation for software measures. On the one hand there is the informal notion that a measure is only valid if it is useful and practical. Although this view of validation is important, it is almost impossible to test.

Software measure specification
Proceedings of the 1st ACM SIGSOFT symposium on Foundations of software engineering, 1993This paper introduces the model-order-mapping (MOM) approach for specifying software/document measures. A MOM specification requires that the important attributes of the document be identified, a model that captures the attributes be chosen, and a mapping from the document to the model be specified.

Measuring software reusability
Proceedings of 1994 3rd International Conference on Software Reuse, 2002This paper examines various approaches to measuring software reusability. Knowing what makes software "reusable" can help us learn how to build new reusable components and help us to identify potentially useful modules in existing programs. The paper begins by establishing a taxonomy of approaches to reusability metrics based on their empirical or ...

Measuring software misinterpretation
Journal of Systems and Software, 1991Abstract In practice, when assessing the understandability of a software-related product, one is often concerned not only with the degree to which the information is comprehended but also with the degree to which it is misinterpreted. For example, because requirements specifications are used during the planning phase of the software life-cycle, how ...
