Applied Software Measurement: Assuring Productivity and Quality

Software measurement has quickly earned its place as the best method to ensure productivity and quality control. But since the original publication of this definitive work-which introduced the science and put it on the map-metrics have grown far more complex. This edition addresses the massive measurement changes wrought by new technologies and paradigms, as well as outsourcing and reenginering. A true classic in the literature of information systems, the second edition fully discusses software metrics in relation to areas of acute interest today.
