Abstract
ZD-MIS stands for Zuse/Drabe Measure-Information-System. In order to give people of industry and academics guidelines to quantify software quality attributes, in 1994 the development of the System ZD-MIS has been started. The major goal of ZD-MIS is to provide people with a comprehensive framework of software measurement. Among others, ZD-MIS presents the theory of (software) measurement and the models of complexity, readability, maintainability, cost estimation, etc. behind measures. It also contains a database of more than 1500 software measures which are characterized by many software quality attributes and measurement theoretic assumption. A database for literature with more than 1500 entries and a glossary of terms with ca. 500 entries shall help to give students, scientists and practitioners an overview of the literature in the software measurement area. The major goal of ZD-MIS is to provide scientists, students and practitioners with the necessary knowledge for software measurement.
