Practical Software Measurement by Hughes
The development of software is expensive and difficult to control. Also the complexity of software compared to other engineered artefacts means that the products of the software process are prone to error. There is therefore a need for the careful management of the software process, which needs to be based on measurement. This book explains how this necessary measurement can be carried out. It discusses how the size of software, its complexity and its quality can be measured. The way that these measurements can be used to control and improve the software process is also described. The book approaches the necessary background statistics assuming no previous experience on the part of the reader. The use of examples and exercises makes this topic, which is usually the biggest problem for readers, much easier to understand. The use of case studies provides continuity for the reader as well as exercises and problems on which to practice the techniques; support material on the web provides further exercises and tutorial material.| SKU | Unavailable |
