A Comparative Analysis Of Noc Over Mvg To Improve Quality Of Software
Dharmendra Lal Gupta · i-manager’s Journal on Software Engineering · 2015
Software metric is one of the very important elements to predict the quality. The relationship of Number of Children metric with cyclomatic complexity is a significant matter. Here in this paper, the relationship between NOC (Number of Children) and MVG (McCabe's Cyclomatic Complexity) have been explained using three real projects developed in JAVA language. The authors have also empirically computed NOC and MVG metrics of these projects and found the correlation between these two. It is found that, with increasing NOC, MVG also increases in polynomial form which is showing the directly proportional relationship. This paper provides an optimal value of NOC up to that software will be a quality software.
