Derivation and Validation of Software Metrics (International Series of Monographs on Computer Science)

By Arthur David Snider, Edward B. Saff, R. Kent Nagle

This landmark book is the first to describe a methodical derivation process for software metrics--measurements of software products and processes used to monitor, estimate, and control the quality and utility of software projects. The author reviews the subject, discusses a number of weaknesses inherent in software metrication, and describes a method for derivation and validation. Students and professionals in computer science, software engineering, and software quality assurance will want to read this important new contribution to the literature.
