Deviation Causing Factors in a Code based on Environment of Analysis

This paper is based upon the type of software metrics available and their behavior on a piece of code in static environment and in run-time/ dynamic environment. Observing the current trend in the research in software metrics, it is noted that the work is majorly being carried in either using the metrics to evaluate the performance of any software or a source code, or in the path of creating some new metric, which is the blend of previous metric, but nothing much is been done in way of evaluating the performance of a metric itself and in order to find ways and methods to improve it. In this paper a similar approach is followed that leads to some factors that are responsible for the deviation of a metric results in static environment and dynamic/ run-time state.
