Abstract

Quality of system and software architectures plays a major role in today’s development to reduce the complexity of systems during design and ensure maintainability and extensibility. Metrics can provide system architects with information about the quality of the system architectures and support them to ensure the quality characteristics defined in ISO 25010. In this position paper, we look on selected metrics from code and object-oriented design analysis to use them for the evaluation of system architectures modeled with EAST-ADL. Therefore, the metrics (collections) Lines of Code, Cyclomatic Complexity, Chidamber and Kemerer and MOOD are examined for their application on EAST-ADL models.
