An Empirical Study to Validate Metrics for Class Diagrams - Genero, Piattini, Calero (2002)   (Correct)

....empirical validation 1. Introduction. Nowadays, one of the principal objectives of software engineering is to improve the quality of software products. There is a common agreement that the quality assurance must be guaranteed from the early stages of the software development life cycle [4], 8] 9] 10] focusing on high level design artifacts like class diagrams. In the development of OOIS the class diagram is a key early artifact that lays the foundation of all later design and implementation work. Hence, class diagram quality is a crucial issue that must be evaluated (and improved ....

Improving UML Support for User Interface Design: A Metric.. - Silva, Paton (2003)   (Correct)

....in ConcurTaskTree [17] Simulations, however, restrict assessment to the behavioral part of the models. The quality of models, however, can be assessed from internal attributes of the models rather than from attributes of artifacts produced from them. For instance, objectoriented design metrics [1, 3, 5, 6, 14] have been used to evaluate the quality of several aspects, such as the collaboration (coupling) between classes [5, 6] the cohesion among the operations of a class [3, 5] and the complexity of the control flow [14] of as object oriented design. Therefore, object oriented design metrics are ....

An Operational Process for Goal-Driven Definition of Measures - Briand, Morasca, Basili (2002)   (3 citations)  Self-citation (Briand Morasca Basili)   (Correct)

....is necessary to define a new measure or instead reuse an existing one for a specific application, and 5. interpret the results of an experiment or a case study, especially when one does not obtain the expected results. This paper introduces (based on our experience [12] 17] 9] 16] 20] [19]) a measure definition process (GQM MEDEA: GQM MEtric DEfinition Approach) usable as a practical guideline to design and reuse technically sound and useful measures. The focus here is the construction of prediction systems, i.e. models that establish a correspondence between measures for ....

....from other systems, verbatim or slightly modified) We selected projects with lower rates of reuse in order to make our analysis of design factors more straightforward by removing what we think is a major source of noise in this context. Additional information about this study can be found in [19]. Case Study 2. The system was developed within the framework of the ESSI project ELSA, which involved Politecnico di Milano, TXT, and ENEL. The application domain was that of embedded systems for real time applications for hydroelectric power plant control. Our study focused on the specification ....

Software Measurement - Morasca   Self-citation (Morasca)   (Correct)

....on software specifications written in TRIO [17] a formal object oriented specification language. Another application of software measurement to specifications is in [18] 7.3. Designs A few measures have been defined for high level and low level design. 7.3.1. High level Design Measures In [19], measures have been defined for cohesion and coupling of the high level design of an object based system, which differs from a full fledged object oriented system because objects are instances of types that are exported by modules, i.e. there is no real syntactic concept of class, and ....
