Abstract
In this paper we report on our experiences of using the
Dagstuhl Middle Metamodel as a basis for defining a set
of software metrics. This approach involves expressing the
metrics as Object Constraint Language queries over the metamodel.
We provide details of a system for specifying Javabased
software metrics through a tool that instantiates the
metamodel from Java class files and a tool that automatically
generates a program to calculate the expressed metrics.
We present details of an exploratory data analysis of some
cohesion metrics to illustrate the use of our approach.
