Abstract

Weyuker proposed the nine properties to evaluate software complexity measures at a time when procedural languages were dominant; however, several researchers have used these properties to evaluate object oriented metrics although the object-oriented (OO) features are entirely different in nature. In this paper, we evaluate each of Weyuker's properties for its effective evaluation and relevance for OO metrics. In addition, we evaluate eleven OO metrics against language independency and additive property. A set of additional properties for object oriented metrics are also summarized in this paper.
