    Unified complexity measure: a measure of complexity
    (Natl Acad Sciences india, 2010) Misra, Sanjay; Akman, Ibrahim; Computer Engineering
    This paper proposes a new complexity metric. The proposed metric is a unified complexity measure (UCM) and includes all major factors responsible for the complexity of a program including cognitive aspects. The applicability of the measure is evaluated through empirical, theoretical and practical validation processes. The test cases and comparative study prove its soundness and robustness.

    A unique complexity metric
    (Springer-verlag Berlin, 2008) Misra, Sanjay; Akman, Ibrahim
    Metrics, in general, are defined as "a quantitative measure of the degree to which a system, component, or process possesses a given attribute". Complexity metrics are used to predict critical information about reliability and maintainability of software systems. This paper proposes complexity metric, which includes all major factors responsible for complexity. We validated our metric against the principles of measurement theory since the measurement theory has been proposed and extensively used in the literature as a means to evaluate the software engineering metrics. The scale of the metric is investigated through Extensive structure. It is found that the proposed measure is on ratio scale. The applicability of the proposed measure is tested through test cases and comparative study.

    Applicability of Weyuker's Properties on Oo Metrics: Some Misunderstandings
    (Comsis Consortium, 2008) Misra, Sanjay; Akman, Ibrahim
    Weyuker's properties have been suggested as a guiding tool in identification of a good and comprehensive complexity measure by several researchers. Weyuker proposed nine properties to evaluate complexity measure for traditional programming. However, they are extensively used for evaluating object-oriented (OO) metrics, although the object-oriented features are entirely different in nature. In this paper, two recently reported OO metrics were evaluated and, based on it; the usefulness and relevance of these properties for evaluation purpose for object-oriented systems is discussed.
