Analyzing object – oriented systems in order to evaluate their quality gains its importance as the paradigm continues to increase in popularity. Consequently, several object- oriented metrics have been proposed to evaluate different aspects of these systems such as class coupling. This paper presents a new cognitive complexity metric namely cognitive weighted coupling between objects for measuring coupling in object- oriented systems. In this metric, five types of coupling that may exist between classes: control coupling, global data coupling, internal data coupling, data coupling and lexical content coupling are consider in computing CWCBO.
Software Metrics, Control Coupling, Global Data Coupling, Internal Data Coupling, Data Coupling, Lexical Content Coupling, Cognitive Weighed Coupling Between Objects (CWCBO)
