The design of software is often depicted by graphs that show components and their relationships. For example, a structure chart shows the calling relationships among components. O...
Program restructuring or refactoring is often required when a function becomes too large or is involved in multiple activities and therefore exhibits low cohesion. A critical fact...
Class cohesion is considered as one of most important object-oriented software attributes. Cohesion refers to the degree of relatedness between members in a class. High cohesion i...
This paper presents a MOF-compliant metamodel for calculating software metrics and demonstrates how it is used to generate a metrics tool that calculates coupling and cohesion met...
Code-based metrics such as coupling and cohesion are used to measure a system's structural complexity. But dealing with large systems--those consisting of several millions of...
