Abstract

Object-oriented software metrics must reflect overall object-oriented characteristics including the size and structure of objects and the relation among them. This paper determines four object-oriented paradigm related features(factors) that affect the size and complexity of an object-oriented software and suggests object-point metrics for software quality measurement based on the object-oriented design style guidelines. The guidelines, added a new one to the existing guidelines, were proposed by applying the chunk theory of cognitive psychology. The suggested metrics were verified by experimental method. The experimental verification evaluates whether the suggested metrics reflected overall object-oriented concepts and characteristics. In this experiment, two C programs that output same result are compared by measuring with the suggested metrics. As the result, the usefulness of the suggested metrics was verified.
