Abstract :
The goal/question/metrics (GQM) method is an important and extensively used goal-oriented measurement paradigm for software engineering. Yet application of the approach is very difficult, expensive, and hard to repeat. We proposed a composite measurement pattern (CMP), described its building foundation and designing principles, gave a detailed example on using the pattern. By using the CMP, we can reuse successful measurement experiences, so as to reduce the cost and improve the quality of applying GQM approach greatly.
