About this product

Product Information

This edition, updated to take account of the fast changing developments in software metrics, provides an accessible introduction to software metrics. It includes a discussion of process maturity and measurement, goal-question-metric, metrics plans, experimentation, empirical studies, object-oriented metrics and metrics tools. In this volume, the authors aim is to provide a framework for software metrics with greater emphasis placed on its practical applications. The framework is based on two simple concepts, namely a rigorous approach to measurement extracted from basic ideas in measurement theory and a classification of the entities of interest in software development in terms of products, processes and resources. Part One provides the reader with a basic understanding of why and how we measure. Thus, it examines and explains the fundamentals of measurement, experimentation and data collection and analysis. Part Two explores software engineering measurement in greater detail, with information about a range of specific metrics and their uses, backed up by a range of examples and case studies. Part Three offers a management perspective on software measurement, explaining current practices and looking ahead to future developments.
