A Review of Object-Oriented Coupling and Cohesion Metrics
TL;DR: Various coupling and cohesion metrics for object-oriented software are reviewed and low coupling and high cohesion are better for good software quality.

Object Oriented Software Maintenance in Presence of Indirect Coupling
TL;DR: This research proposes metrics which estimates the maintenance effort for software having indirect coupling between classes, and existing metrics sometimes do not depict the effect of the key factors which contribute significantly towards maintenance effort.

Using Z to specify object-oriented software complexity measures
TL;DR: An algorithm which is proved to be complete and sound to decompose an inheritance hierarchy into a number of measured elements, namely, unit repeated inheritances (URIs), and an inheritance level technique (ILT) based on URIs as a guide to measure the inheritance hierarchy are introduced.

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
S. Henry,Dennis Kafura +1 more
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.
