Cognitive Information Complexity Measure of Object-Oriented Program
نویسنده
چکیده
Object-oriented paradigm is built on the notion of real world entities. This paradigm has received higher acceptability among the programming community. This is because the programs written using an object-oriented language are easier to comprehend as compared to the procedural programs. Hence this paper makes an attempt to apply Cognitive Information Complexity Measure (CICM) on object-oriented program and proves that cognitive complexity for any procedural program is greater than the cognitive complexity of the same program written in object-oriented software.

Software complexity metrics are used to predict critical information about reliability and maintainability of software systems. Object oriented software development requires a different approach to software complexity metrics. In this paper, we propose a metric to compute the structural and cognitive complexity of class by associating a weight to the class, called as Weighted Class Complexity (...

Software maintenance and mainly software comprehension pose the largest costs in the software lifecycle. In order to assess the cost of software comprehension, various complexity measures have been proposed in the literature. This paper proposes new cognitive-spatial complexity measures, which combine the impact of spatial as well as architectural aspect of the software to compute the software ...
