First, for a given attribute, the statements in all methods that last define the attribute are computed. Then, the forward and backward data slices for this attribute are generated by using the class as the slice scope and are combined to compute the corresponding class data slice. Finally, the class cohesion is computed based on all class data slices for the attributes. Compared to traditional cohesion metrics that use methods as the slice scope, the proposed metrics that use a single class as slice scope take into account the possible interactions between the methods. The experimental results show that class cohesion can be more accurately measured when using the class as the slice scope.展开更多

Reference is one of the most important devices in grammatical cohesion. It can be divided into personal reference,demonstrative reference,and comparative reference. Some of these references can be used as cataphora,some can be used as anaphora and some can be used as both.
