Abstract:
Without measurements (or metrics) it is impossible to detect problems early in the software process. 'Software Metrics' can serve as an early warning system for potential problems. In this project, we propose complexity metrics for small business applications developed using MS Access. These metrics can be used for estimating
the effort and duration of a project's implementation phase. The proposed metrics are
base on Function Point metrics with certain modifications that make them applicable
to relational database languages.
