In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the critical issue of software complexity, a topic that has long vexed software engineers and managers. The author, drawing on the work of McCabe and other pioneers, examines a specific measure known as cyclomatic complexity, which attempts to quantify the intricate pathways within a program's code. The book explores both theoretical critiques of this metric, particularly those proposed by Myers and Hansen, and empirical concerns regarding its high correlation with simple code size measures. Through an in-depth analysis of real-world software development and maintenance projects, the author tests these criticisms and presents compelling evidence about the practical implications of these different complexity measures. The book goes beyond a simple critique, offering a solution in the form of a transformed metric known as "complexity density." This ratio, calculated by dividing cyclomatic complexity by the size of the system, emerges as a powerful tool for predicting software maintenance productivity, even on small projects. The author's research suggests that complexity density can be used as a valuable indicator of how difficult a program is to maintain, potentially impacting crucial decisions about resource allocation and code restructuring. The book's insights offer software engineers and managers a valuable approach to understanding and managing the complexities inherent in software development and maintenance, ultimately contributing to improved software quality and reduced costs.

In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the challenges and pitfalls of implementing strategic information systems (SISs) within businesses. It delves into the array of problems that can arise during the conceptualization, development, and implementation stages of SISs. The author draws upon real-world examples of both successful and unsuccessful SIS attempts, providing a balanced perspective on the subject. The book analyzes the complexities of integrating telecommunications, relying on multiple vendors, fostering inter-organizational cooperation, and embracing leading-edge technology. It highlights the risks associated with these endeavors, such as equipment problems, staff shortages, vendor dependencies, and the need to overcome inter-organizational hurdles. Furthermore, the book examines the potential pitfalls that can arise once an SIS is successfully implemented, including the risk of imitation, oversubscription, and high exit barriers. Through this in-depth exploration, the author offers valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities of SIS implementation, providing a roadmap for businesses seeking to leverage information technology for competitive advantage.

In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the correlation between production scales and their influence on software development, examining numerous datasets collected through careful research. The author argues that traditional scale models are insufficient and proposes a new production function acknowledging both rising and falling scales. This hypothesis is supported by empirical data, showing that smaller projects experience increasing returns, while larger projects encounter diminishing returns at a certain size. The book challenges established views and presents a nuanced understanding of scale economies and diseconomies in software development. Its insights are crucial for optimizing productivity and project success.

In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the reliability of function points, a metric used in the planning and control of software development. Previous research on the topic has been scarce and produced conflicting results. The author conducted a large-scale field experiment involving measurements of 100 medium-sized software applications to reach statistically significant conclusions. The results showed that the FP counts from pairs of raters using the standard method differed on average by 15% and that the correlation across the two methods tested was as high as .95 for the data in this sample. These results suggest that FPs are much more reliable than previously suspected and should encourage wider acceptance and adoption of FPs as a software metric. The author emphasizes the significance of this book's findings on the field of software engineering management, as it provides crucial data on the validity of a widely used metric.

In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a model to measure software development performance, focusing on agent-principal models in projects. The author concentrates on four dimensions of project performance: initial development cost, maintainability, timeliness, and effectiveness. The model developed in the book argues that, in the long term, both the principal and the agent in a project will benefit from improved metrics. The author applies the model and demonstrates how current measurement criteria preference for cost and schedule metrics over effectiveness metrics in software development projects aligns with the model's expectations. The book concludes by suggesting that although the current industry preference is for metrics that measure precision and sensitivity, future developments in software engineering may mean that other metrics become more widely adopted in the field as more complex dimensions of measurement become easier to measure.

The author constructs and evaluates econometric models to determine which product features are most influential in purchase and pricing decisions for microcomputer software, with a special emphasis on identifying the effects of standards and network externalities. The primary example used is the microcomputer spreadsheet market for the period 1987-1992. The author finds that hedonic regression techniques can estimate the value users place on specific features, and that network externalities significantly influence the value of products, with each 1% increase in a product's installed base enabling an additional price premium. Purchasers also value adherence to standards, such as the Lotus menu tree interface, with a premium of approximately 30% of the average price in the sample. The results indicate opportunities created by changes in technology architecture, and offer guidance into current public policy issues such as the value of intellectual property in software.

This book proposes a new suite of design metrics for object-oriented programming, rooted in measurement theory and the viewpoints of experienced software developers. It presents six design metrics that map to the essential features of object-oriented design: weighted methods per class, depth of inheritance tree, number of children, coupling between objects, response for a class, and lack of cohesion in methods. These metrics capture key aspects of object-oriented design, such as class complexity, inheritance, and communication between objects. Through analytical evaluation and empirical data from commercial projects, the author demonstrates the validity of these metrics and suggests how they can be used to assess the quality of object-oriented designs. This book provides valuable insights into the complexities of object-oriented design, helping developers and managers ensure the integrity and effectiveness of their software systems.
