Numerous software quality studies have been performed over the past three years-mostly sponsored by the Rome Air Development Center. It is proposed by the author that more emphasis should be placed on devising and validating quantitative metrics that are indicative of the quality of software when it is being designed and coded. Such measures could be applied effectively, as relative guidelines without formal validation. However for such measures to be predictive of the quality of the delivered software, they must be validated with actual operational error data or data gathered in a simulated operational environment. This paper includes a review of proposed metrics from the literature a report of a Hughes intramodule metric study, and recommendations for refining proposed software quality assurance criteria.
