Complexity and Development Effort Prediction Models Using Component Oriented Metrics
نویسندگان
چکیده
Complexity and development effort estimation models are developed based on a set of Component Oriented metrics. Our view focuses on the efforts for the identification and the integration of existing components, as the most important types of development activities in this emerging paradigm. The metrics set that is used in this research, therefore, is specifically configured considering the composition of related elements of a Component Oriented design. Regression models were obtained using data collected from student projects. The obtained models were validated using data collected from 5 projects. The results of the validation show that Component Oriented metrics can be used by developers and managers in predicting product and process related parameters.

Estimation and Prediction Metrics for Adaptive Maintenance Effort of Object-Oriented Systems
ÐMany software systems built in recent years have been developed using object-oriented technology and, in some cases, they already need adaptive maintenance in order to satisfy market and customer needs. In most cases, the estimation and prediction of maintenance effort is performed with difficulty due to the lack of metrics and suitable models. In this paper, a model and metrics for estimation...

متن کاملPredicting Testing Effort Using Artificial Neural Network
The importance of software quality is becoming a motivating force for the development of techniques like Artificial Neural Network (ANN), which are being used for the design of prediction models of quality attributes. The purpose of this work is to examine the application of ANN for software quality prediction using Object-Oriented (OO) metrics. Testing effort has been predicted using ANN metho...
متن کاملEmpirical Analysis of Object-Oriented Design Metrics for Predicting Unit Testing Effort of Classes
In this paper, we investigate empirically the relationship between object-oriented design metrics and testability of classes. We address testability from the point of view of unit testing effort. We collected data from three open source Java software systems for which JUnit test cases exist. To capture the testing effort of classes, we used metrics to quantify the corresponding JUnit test cases...
متن کاملA Comparison of Length, Complexity and Functionality as Size Measures for Predicting Web Design and Authoring Effort
Software practitioners recognise the importance of realistic estimates of effort to the successful management of software projects, the Web being no exception. Estimates are necessary throughout the whole development life cycle. They are fundamental when bidding for a contract or when determining a project’s feasibility in terms of cost-benefit analysis. In addition, they allow project managers...
