  1. An Investigation of Software Metrics Affect on Cobol Program Reliability

    The purpose of this research was to predict a COBOL program's reliability from software characteristics that are found in the program's source code. The first step was to select factors based on the human information processing model that are associated with changes in computer program reliability. …
