A number of researchers in th...
متن کاملMaterial Practice as a Form of Critique
The paper characterizes how material practice becomes a form of critique.

McCabe’s cyclomatic complexity metric is widely cited a s a useful predictor of various software attributes such a s reliability and development effort. This critique demonstrates that it is based upon poor theoretical foundations and an inadequate model of software development. The argument that the metric provides the developer with a useful engineering approximation is not borne out by the e...
