The authors identify consensus requirements for metric program success and examine how programs in two organisations measured up.Abstract:
Increasingly organisations are foregoing an ad hoc approach to metrics in favor of complete metrics programs. The authors identify consensus requirements for metric program success and examine how programs in two organisations measured up.read more

Software metrics: roadmap
Norman Fenton,Martin Neil +1 more
TL;DR: The recommended approach is to handle the key factors largely missing from the usual metrics approaches, namely: causality, uncertainty, and combining different (often subjective) evidence.
Patent
Development architecture framework
TL;DR: In this paper, a development architecture framework is defined and security requirements are defined and the framework is audited to ensure requirements are met and quality is ensured by obtaining and statistically analyzing measurements relating to predetermined criterion personnel are trained to improve the quality of the project.

Software metrics: success, failures and new directions
Norman Fenton,Martin Neil +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that it is possible to provide genuinely improved management decision support systems based on such simplistic metrics, but only by adopting a less isolationist approach that uses Bayesian Belief nets.
