A brief review of software metrics
• Measurable factors in the software
development process
• Help indicate potential problems in the
development process
• Used by project managers to produce
quality software in a timely manner
• Defining new, more informative metrics is
an active area of research
What exactly does Simetrics do,
anyway?
• Creates PowerPoint presentations from
data in Excel spreadsheets, using
visualization modules
• Provides a user interface for configuring
modules
• Allows the use of new modules to increase
functionality
• Provides a framework of functions to
simplify the development of new modules
via a visualization interface
