Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 17Entropy as a Measure of Quality of Xml Schema Document(Zarka Private Univ, 2011) Basci, Dilek; Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringIn this paper, a metric for the assessment of the structural complexity of eXtensible Markup Language schema document is formulated. The present metric 'Schema Entropy is based on entropy concept and intended to measure the complexity of the schema documents written in W3C XML Schema Language due to diversity in the structures of its elements. The SE is useful in evaluating the efficiency of the design of Schemas. A good design reduces the maintainability efforts. Therefore, our metric provides valuable information about the reliability and maintainability of systems. In this respect, this metric is believed to be a valuable contribution for improving the quality of XML-based systems. It is demonstrated with examples and validated empirically through actual test cases.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 15Lossless Text Compression Technique Using Syllable Based Morphology(Zarka Private Univ, 2011) Akman, Ibrahim; Bayindir, Hakan; Ozleme, Serkan; Akin, Zehra; Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringIn this paper, we present a new lossless text compression technique which utilizes syllable-based morphology of multi-syllabic languages. The proposed algorithm is designed to partition words into its syllables and then to produce their shorter bit representations for compression. The method has six main components namely source file, filtering unit, syllable unit, compression unit, dictionary file and target file. The number of bits in coding syllables depends on the number of entries in the dictionary file. The proposed algorithm is implemented and tested using 20 different texts of different lengths collected from different fields. The results indicated a compression of up to 43%.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 12Estimating Quality of Javascript(Zarka Private Univ, 2012) Misra, Sanjay; Cafer, Ferid; Computer EngineeringThis paper proposes a complexity metric for Java script since JavaScript is the most popular scripting language that can run in all of the major web browsers. The proposed metric "JavaScript Cognitive Complexity Measure (JCCM)" is intended to assess the design quality of scripts. The metrics has been evaluated theoretically and validated empirically through real test cases. The metric has also been compared with other similar metrics. The theoretical, empirical validation and comparative study prove the worth and robustness of the metric.
