Software implementation is often measured subjectively by software developers or project managers. In hopes to find a more objective and accurate methodology to assess software implementation progress timely, we propose the use of CBO (Coupling Between Objects) measures, using as a baseline UML approximations of the same measures. In brief, data is normalized, so that, as the code approximates to its design, some progress is "earned". Our initial evaluation suggests that our methodology can be helpful in the estimation of software implementation progress.
