Abstract :
This paper proposes a new mechanism to measure a variety of source code metrics at low cost. The proposed mechanism is very promising because it realizes to add new metrics as necessary. Users do not need to use multiple measurement tools for measuring multiple metrics. The proposed mechanism has been implemented as an actual software tool MASU. This paper shows how using MASU makes it easy and less costly to develop plugins of the CK metrics suite.
