A Quality Comparison of Kauli Community Software for Higher Education
Charles W. Butler · 2012
The Kauli Foundation provides open source community software for universities. The foundation is comprised of many universities, colleges, and commercial firms who have joined together to develop an application portfolio for higher education administration. This research studied the software quality of three Kauli applications; specifically, Kauli Financial System, Kauli Rice and Kauli Coeus. The analysis of software quality utilized McCabe metrics as a reference base. McCabe metrics include software metrics, cyclomatic complexity, essential complexity, and method design complexity, for determining software quality and reliability.
