Component-based software systems are becoming larger§and more complex. The quantification of these§systems is possible through representation in a§hierarchical structure with the use of software§metrics. Metrics provide information about such§features as complexity, design, quality, size,§development time, effort, and cost. Entropy-based§software metrics promise important improvements in§measuring complexity, design quality, and information§flow. The proposed measurement framework in this book§offers quantitative representation and decomposition§methods to apply entropy-based metrics. By using this§measurement framework, the developer could achieve a§hierarchical representation of the system which would§clarify the logic flow and quantify the interaction§between the components. The framework targets the§design and evolution phases in component-based§systems to detect structural complexity issues and§comprehend the interaction of the software modules.§This framework would be helpful to both designers and§users to represent the component-based system in a§comprehensible form and to apply the necessary measures.
