Using genetic algorithms to optimize software quality estimation models

TL;DR: The core concept of this thesis is to consider existing models that have been constructed on one data set and adapt them to new data, which maintains the white-box nature of the models which can be used as guidelines in future software development processes.

A theoretical validation of the number of polymorphic methods as a complexity metric

TL;DR: This work identifies and theoretically validates an OO metrics that measures polymorphism and shows that the metric measures the concept of complexity which has impact on the external quality attribute of software design.

Stepping towards dynamic measurement for object oriented software

TL;DR: This paper presents the empirical investigation of dynamic metrics for SMP and also compares them with static metrics and shows that dynamic metrics perform better than static metrics, and can be used as a sound alternative for S MP.

Classification of the metric in ISO model by oriented object properties

TL;DR: The purpose is to find a way to evaluate software without neglecting the properties of the object-oriented design such as: abstraction, inheritance, encapsulation etc.

A complexity measure

TL;DR: In this paper, a graph-theoretic complexity measure for managing and controlling program complexity is presented. But the complexity is independent of physical size, and complexity depends only on the decision structure of a program.

A Complexity Measure

TL;DR: Several properties of the graph-theoretic complexity are proved which show, for example, that complexity is independent of physical size and complexity depends only on the decision structure of a program.

Towards a metrics suite for object oriented design

TL;DR: These metrics are based upon measurement theory and are informed by the insights of experienced object-oriented software developers, and formally evaluated against a widelyaccepted list of software metric evaluation criteria.

Software Structure Metrics Based on Information Flow

TL;DR: This paper defines and validates a set of software metrics which are appropriate for evaluating the structure of large-scale systems and can be interpreted to reveal various types of structural flaws in the design and implementation.
