Call For Papers
The 7th International Workshop on Emerging Trends in Software Metrics, held within ICSE 2016 conference (http://2016.icse.cs.txstate.edu ), is aimed at gathering together researchers and practitioners to discuss the progress on software metrics knowledge. Motivations for this workshop are the low impact that software metrics have on current software development and the increased interest in research. The goals of this workshop include critically examining the evidence for the effectiveness of existing metrics and identifying new directions for metrics. Evidence for existing metrics includes how the metrics have been used in practice and studies showing their effectiveness. Identifying new directions includes use of new theories, such as complex network theory, on which to base metrics.
Topics
New software metrics to assess quality and effort
Complex network theory and its application to software structure and growth
