                        Call  for  Papers
                   for  a  Special  Issue  of
            The  Journal  of  Systems  and  Software
                               on
                    "Using Software Metrics"
 
 
 
 
Software metrics have been a popular topic among both researchers 
and practitioners. However, little work has been published 
decribing how metrics can be applied in the development, testing 
and maintenance of computer software. This special issue will 
focus on the topic of using software metrics as opposed to 
simply studying them. 
 
Individuals from both academia and industry who are currently 
using software metrics in the classroom or in the field are 
encouraged to submit a paper describing their experiences. Papers 
should address three points: 
 
 
(1)  Which metrics are being used? 
 
 
(2)  How are they being applied? 
 
 
(3)  How successful have they been? 
 
 
All papers will be refereed by a panel of researchers and 
practitioners. Deadline for submissions is January 1, 1989. For 
more information, or to submit a paper, contact:
