AdaMeasure: an implementation of the Halstead and Henry metrics.
adameasureimplem00herz.pdf (8.481Mb)Abstract
A software metric is a tool that should be used in the development of quality
software. The properties that define good software vary but encompass reliability,
complexity, efficiency, testability, understandability, and modifiability. The
Henry metric measures the complexity of data flow within a module and the
complexity of inter-module communication. This thesis is an extension of a
previous thesis titled 'AdaMeasure' that calculated the Halstead metric. The
present design and implementation is a tool that computes the Halstead and
Henry metrics for Ada programs.
