| description | As measurement of software metrics gradually became a vital process in
software engineering, the measurement-derived information has been heavily used as
an important source to support decision-making. The reliability of the derived
information is subject to the variations in the measurement system which could
contribute to information distortion and lead to wrong decisions. This project is to
study the existing measurement system adopted by GSG Malaysia to identify the
sources of variations and root causes in the system, as well as to improve the
measurement system by reducing the variation errors in the measurement
mechanisms. The three (3) major elements of measurement system; people, tool and
process are examined via a thorough study on the existing relevant documentations,
process work flows and measurement mechanism to identify the variations in the
system. A respondent’s opinion survey and descriptive statistical analysis are
conducted to substantiate the analysis study. The results from the analysis show the
major variations errors and errors root causes in the measurement system that are to
be solved and improved. The outputs of measurement system analysis are essential
sources to improve the quality of the software process and increase the reliability of
measurement-derived information. This is to provide better and efficient decisions
support system as the organization’s competitive edge to sustain itself in the IT
world. |
