Question 3

Explain how size-oriented metrics differ from function-oriented metrics.Discuss the pros and cons of each.

Accepted Answer

Size-oriented measures are computed by normalizing direct measures of the software engineering process (e.g.effort or defects)over the product size,measured in lines of code.Function-oriented measures are indirect measures that are computed from measures of the information domain of a business application and an assessment of its complexity.Size-oriented metrics are relatively easy to collect,but can present problems when component-based or visual programming methods are applied.Function-oriented metrics can be determined much earlier in the software cycle,but are an abstraction that is open to interpretation.
