Derivation and Validation of Software Metrics

This landmark book is the first to describe a methodical derivation process for software metrics—measurements of software products and processes used to monitor, estimate, and control the quality and utility of software projects. The author reviews the subject, discusses a number of weaknesses inherent in software metrication, and describes a method for derivation and validation. Students and professionals in computer science, software engineering, and software quality assurance will want to read this important new contribution to the literature.
