Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing ((AISC,volume 717))

Abstract

Despite that non-invasive software measurement tools have proven their usefulness in software production, their adoption in software industry is still limited. Reasons for the limited distributions have been studied and analyzed in works like (Coman et al, Proceedings of 476 the 31st International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2009), Vancouver 89–99, 2009) [1]. In this paper, we propose a new architecture for non-invasive software measurement systems that address the problems of the existing systems. The outcome of our early experimentation is quite promising and gives us the desired additional confidence on its successful distribution.
