The algorithm identifies factors which have historically increased the difficulty of changes. This methodology has implications for research into cost drivers. As an example of a research finding, we find that a system under study was \"decaying\" in that changes grew more difficult to implement at a rate of 20% per year. We also quantify the difference in costs between changes that fix faults and additions of new functionality: fixes require 80% more effort after accounting for size. Since our methodology adds no overhead to the development process, we also envision it being used as a project management tool: for example, developers can identify code modules which have grown more difficult to change than previously, and can match changes to developers with appropriate expertise. The methodology uses data from a change management system, supported by monthly time sheet data if available. The method's performance does not degrade much when the quality of the time sheet data is limited. We validate our results using a survey of the developers under study: the change efforts resulting from the algorithm match the developers' opinions. Our methodology includes a technique based on the jackknife to determine factors that contribute significantly to change effort.","PeriodicalId":444081,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Fifth International Software Metrics Symposium.

They are the basic units of object-oriented programs, and serve as the units of encapsulation, which promotes the modifiability and the reusability of them. In order to take full advantage of the desirable features provided by classes, such as data abstraction and encapsulation, classes should be designed to have good quality. Because object-oriented systems are developed by heavily reusing the existing classes, the classes of poor quality can be a serious obstacle to the development of systems. We define a new cohesion measure for assessing the quality of classes. Our approach is based on the observations on the salient natures of classes which have not been considered in the previous approaches. A Most Cohesive Component (MCC) is introduced as the most cohesive form of a class. We believe that the cohesion of a class depends on the connectivity of itself and its constituent components. We propose the connectivity factor to indicate the degree of the connectivity among the members of a class, and the structure factor to take into account the cohesiveness of its constituent components. Consequently, the cohesion of a class is defined as the product of the connectivity factor and the structure factor. This cohesion measure indicates how closely a class approaches MCC; the closely a class approaches MCC, the greater cohesion the class has.","PeriodicalId":444081,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Fifth International Software Metrics Symposium.

From a practitioner's point of view this research seems not to address some important aspects of IT projects that we observe: estimating in an industrial environment is performed by people, not models; COTS projects are increasing their market share replacing traditional custom software projects; and industrial projects use a large variety of metrics to size the project deliverables and estimate the costs. Estimation by analogy tools like ANGEL and multiple regression analysis provide the necessary flexibility in terms of choice of input parameters. We describe an experiment to evaluate human performance where the subjects were aided by analogy and regression tools respectively. 68 partners and managers in Andersen Consulting estimated 48 different COTS projects. The results in terms of MMRE indicate that users benefit from both tools, however more from regression models than from analogy models as ANGEL. Furthermore, the performance of the ANGEL tool itself is not superior to the performance of the regression model. This result is contradictory to previous studies that claim that ANGEL outperforms multiple regression.","PeriodicalId":444081,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Fifth International Software Metrics Symposium.
