Abstract
Existing Object Oriented Design Metrics a Study and Comparison
Highlights
IntroductionMeasurements are used to access the quality of engineered product or process used to build it
A key element of any engineering process is measurement
Software Quality still a vague and multifaceted concept, which means different things to different people, metrics for object oriented design focuses on measurements that are applied to the class and design characteristics
Summary
Measurements are used to access the quality of engineered product or process used to build it. Since 90’s several designers started shifting from Procedural Paradigm to Object Oriented Paradigm because it is a faster development process having module based architecture, highly reusable features which increase design quality and so on. This trend created a new challenge especially to the management team as the conventional metrics invented for classical paradigm seemed no longer valid in supporting their project planning and resource allocation. To ensure the quality of OO systems, many researchers like Chidamber & Kemerer (C&K Metrics), Lorenz & Kidd Metrics, Abreau Brito (MOOD Metrics) ... etc proposed metrics for OO characteristics [13]
