Abstract

This paper presents a nonlinear model to measure flexibility, taking into account the relationship between operation control force and deformation of the software, with the second-order cone programming approach to calculate software flexibility. The model is focused on the size of deformation of the software, but it ignores the impact of the external operation control force. Finally, the proposed model is performed through experiments by applying it to a wage calculation software system. The analysis results show that we could get satisfying precision of the software flexibility measurement according to the method based on SOCP. The method is feasible in the software flexibility measurement.
