Proposal for Measurement of Agent-Based Systems

Abstract

Translate Article

The software industry is always striving for new technologies to improve the productivity of software and meet the requirement of improving the quality, flexibility, and scalability of systems. In the field of software engineering, the software development paradigm is shifting towards ever-increasing flexibility and quality of software products. A measure of the quality of software is therefore essential. Measurement methods must be changed to accommodate the new paradigm as traditional measurement methods are no longer suitable. This paper discusses the significant measurement factors as they relate to agent-based systems, and proposes some metrics suitable for use in agent-based systems.
