Measuring productivity and quality in model-based design

摘要

Methods and systems for automatically measuring productivity and quality of model-based designs are disclosed. The present invention uses model contents, time spent, and input activities to measure effort put in a task and quality of the task. Defects and other model characteristics are tracked and used as a criterion to determine quality of a model-based design. The present invention allows for predicting resources required for a future task and for providing guidelines to improve usability of an application.
