Abstract
A wide variety of software metrics have been proposed and a broad range of tools is available to measure them. However, the effective use of software metrics is hindered by the lack of meaningful thresholds. Thresholds have been proposed for a few metrics only, mostly based on expert opinion and a small number of observations.
