Abstract
The component-based development methodology becomes famous as the reuse technology to improve the high productivity of software development. It is necessary component metrics for component-based systems, because the designed components should be measurable to improve the quality of the software. Therefore this paper propose a coupling metric for component design which is reflected in characteristics of component. This paper suggest a case study and comparative analysis result about conventional metrics to verify the accuracy of our coupling metric. The Uoposed coupling metric measure the quality of components accurately and satisfies necessary conditions of coupling metric suggested by Briand and others.
