Object-Relational Database Metrics Formalization
TL;DR: The formalization of a set of metrics for assessing the complexity of ORBDs is presented, and an ontology for the SQL:2003 standard was produced, as a framework for representing the SQL schema definitions.

Stability assessment of evolving industrial object-oriented frameworks
Michael Mattsson,Jan Bosch +1 more
TL;DR: A metrics-based framework stability assessment method is presented, which has been applied on two industrial frameworks from the telecommunication and graphical user interface domains and a set of framework stability indicators based on the results are presented.

Pseudo dynamic metrics [software metrics]
TL;DR: Focusing on coupling metrics, this paper presents an empirical study to analyze the relationship between static and dynamic coupling metrics and proposes the concept of pseudo dynamic metrics to estimate the dynamic behavior early in the software development lifecycle.

An evaluation of code metrics for object-oriented programs
TL;DR: Preliminary results of an investigation into the quality of programs written using different programming paradigms found that two of the suggested code metrics were strongly correlated with these measures of quality.

Technical debt as an indicator of software security risk: a machine learning approach for software development enterprises
Miltiadis G. Siavvas,Dimitrios Tsoukalas,Dimitrios Tsoukalas,Marija Jankovic,Dionysios D. Kehagias,Dimitrios Tzovaras +5 more
TL;DR: The ability of common TD indicators to indicate security risks in software products, both at project-level and at class-level of granularity are investigated, suggesting that TD indicators may potentially act as security indicators as well.

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.
