Abstract

Software measurement can help software developers analyze reliability, maintainability and complexity of systems. Till now, researchers have proposed lots of metrics for UML class diagrams range from cohesion to couple. However very little work is involved in measuring weights of relationships. This paper describes how to measure weights of relationships objectively and mechanically, in which famous PageRank algorithm in web structure mining is used. Finally, a small but realistic example is illustrated.
