Effectiveness Estimation of Object Oriented Software: A Revisit

Abstract: Effectiveness has always been an indefinable concept. Its truthful measurement or assessment is a complex exercise for the reason that of the various potential factors influencing effectiveness. It has been find out from systematic literature review that area researchers, quality controllers and industry personnel had made significant efforts to estimate software effectiveness but at the source code level. Calculating effectiveness at source code level directs to late arrival of desired information. An exact measure of software quality fully depends on effectiveness estimation. This paper shows the results of a systematic literature review conducted to collect related evidence on effectiveness estimation of object oriented software. In this revisit paper, our objective is to find the known complete and comprehensive software effectiveness estimation model and related framework for estimating the effectiveness of object oriented software at an initial stage of development life cycle.
