Generation of a New Complexity Dimension Scheme for Complexity Measure of Procedural Program

Software complexity measurement has been an agelong quandary in software engineering as the effort used to develop, comprehend, or retain the software depends on so many complicated factors. Measuring and controlling of complexity will have an important influence to improve productivity, quality and maintenance of software. So far, most of the researches have tried to identify and measure the complexity in design and code phase. However, when we have the code or design for software, it is too late to control complexity and leads inaccuracy publishing in the whole system. In this paper, we propose a new dimension scheme, in the first phase i.e. Requirement phase of software development which is based on software requirement specifications. Keyword – Code based complexity measures, Cognitive complexity measures and new scheme for complexity measure.
