Abstract
Rationale for CISQ—CISQ exists to address a significant challenge: the lack of visibility IT executives have into the quality and risk of their critical business applications. A fundamental assumption underlying CISQ is that global standards for measuring the attributes of software, especially at the source code level, are fundamental to meeting this challenge. The IT industry needs standard measures to support the use of quality attributes in benchmarking and controlling software acquisition. Currently software measures are too often manual, expensive, and based on inconsistent or even subjective definitions.
