A Method of Software Maintainability Evaluation Based on Static Analysis

Abstract:

Static analysis tools can generate plenty of information about the software. This paper uses the information to build the evaluation metrics of software maintainability, and unified these metrics. Then, we put forward a calculating method of the weights of metrics and create a software maintainability evaluation model. The results of software evaluation show that this method can evaluate the software maintainability objectively and qualitatively, and provides guide for decision-making and execution of software maintenance.
