The work presented in this paper has been carried out in the context of a summary writing environment provided with automatic grading. Regarding summarisation discourse, some of the most relevant variables identified in previous work are comprehension, adequacy, use of language, coherence, and cohesion. This work is focused on cohesion. The described exploratory study starts from basic automati...

Class cohesion refers to the extent to which the members of a class are related. Several class cohesion metrics are proposed in the literature to indicate class cohesion and a few of them are mathematically validated against the necessary properties of class cohesion. Metrics that violate class cohesion properties are not well defined, and their utility as indictors of the relatedness of class ...

Class cohesion refers to the degree of relatedness of class attributes and methods. Software developers use class cohesion measure to assess the quality of their products and to guide the restructuring of poorly designed classes. Several class cohesion metrics are proposed in the literature, and a few of them are theoretically validated against the class cohesion necessary properties. Metrics t...

Class cohesion or degree of the relations of class members is considered as one of the crucial quality criteria. A class with a high cohesion improves understandability, maintainability and reusability. The class cohesion metrics can be measured quantitatively and therefore can be used as a base for assessing the quality of design. The main objective of this paper is to identify important resea...

Class cohesion is an object-oriented software quality attribute and refers to the extent to which the members of a class are related. It is one of the fundamental measures of the goodness of a software design. Software developers use class cohesion measures to assess the quality of their products and to guide the restructuring of poorly developed software. To obtain a more comprehensive and mai...

Cohesion is one of the fundamental measures of the ’goodness’ of a software design. The most accepted and widely studied object-oriented cohesion metric is Chidamber and Kemerer’s Lack of Cohesion in Methods measure. However due to the nature of object-oriented programs, static design metrics fail to quantify all the underlying dimensions of cohesion, as program behaviour is a function of it op...

social cohesion represents the interaction and linkage of the society, is a most important reason of different institutional performance to achieve economic development. the purpose of this paper is to estimate social cohesion and the relation of social cohesion with economic development for 85 selected developed and developing countries in 2010. in this research the social cohesion index have ...

Cohesion is considered as one of the most important software quality attributes. Cohesion refers to the degree of relatedness between members of a software component. Cohesion is one of the few internal software attributes that has been both theoretically and empirically shown to have large impact on external software quality characteristics like maintainability, modularity, reusability, testab...

What is cohesion fatigue? Cohesion fatigue is the asynchronous separation of chromatids in cells that are arrested or delayed at metaphase. In normal anaphase, synchronous chromatid separation is followed by cytokinesis and mitotic exit. In contrast, after cohesion fatigue, cells usually remain locked in mitosis for some time after chromatids separate. Cohesion fatigue requires the mechanical f...

Cohesion was rst introduced as a software attribute that could be used to predict properties of implementations that would be created from a given design. Unfortunately, cohesion, as originally de ned, 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 use...
