Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 7Comparative Study of Cognitive Complexity Measures(2008) Misra,S.; Akman,I.Complexity metrics are used to predict critical information about reliability and maintainability of software systems. Cognitive complexity measure based on cognitive informatics, plays an important role in understanding the fundamental characteristics of software, therefore directly affects the understandability and maintainability of software systems. In this paper, we compared available cognitive complexity measures and evaluated cognitive weight complexity measure in terms of Weyuker's properties. © 2008 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 7Measuring Complexity of Object Oriented Programs(2008) Mısra, Sanjay; Misra,S.; Akman,I.; Mısra, Sanjay; Computer Engineering; Computer EngineeringIn this paper, a metric for object oriented language is formulated and validated. On the contrary of the other metrics used for object oriented programming (OOPs), the proposed metric calculates the complexity of a class at method level and hence considers the internal architecture of the classes, subclasses and member functions. The proposed metric is evaluated against Weyuker's proposed set of measurement principles through examples and validated through experimentation, case study and comparative study with similar measures. The practical usefulness of the metric is evaluated by a practical framework. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 23Modified cognitive complexity measure(Springer Verlag, 2006) Misra,S.In cognitive functional size measure, the functional size is proportional to weighted cognitive complexity of all internal BCS's and number of input and output. This paper proposes the modification in cognitive functional size complexity measure. The proposed complexity measure is proportional to total occurrence of operators and operands and all internal BCS's. The operators and operands are equally important in design consideration. Thus, the contribution of the operators, operands and cognitive aspects complete the definition of a complexity measure in terms of cognitive. Accordingly, a new formula is developed for calculating the modified cognitive complexity measure. An attempt has also been made to evaluate modified cognitive complexity measure in terms of nine Weyuker's properties, through examples. It has been found that seven of nine Weyuker's properties have been satisfied by the modified cognitive complexity measure and hence establishes as a well-structured one. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2006.Conference Object Measuring Complexity of Object Oriented Programs(2008) Misra,S.; Akman,I.In this paper, a metric for object oriented language is formulated and validated.
