Abstract: Cohesion was first introduced as a software attribute that, when measured, could be used to predict properties of implementations that would be created from a given design. Unfortunately, cohesion, as originally defined, could not be objectively assessed, while more recently developed objective cohesion measures depend on code-level information. We show that association-based and slice-based approaches can be used to measure cohesion using only design-level information. An analytical and... (Update)

.... level cohesion measures using an approach very similar to the one described in Section 3 to measure code level functional cohesion [2]. They define design level functional cohesion (DFC) measures only in terms of the dependencies between module input and output components....
...(Kang and Bieman, 1996 and 1998) We also propose a set of restructuring operations which are defined in terms of the model. In Bieman and Kang (1998), we evaluate these and other design level cohesion measures and show that they can predict code level attributes. This paper...
