Abstract: There is a number of software quality attributes depends on the software design complexity. Coupling and cohesion are the two main parameters through which software complexity can be measured. To achieve the high degree of maintainability, understandability, readability the high degree of cohesion is required. PLCReducer is a tool to review the software design complexity []. In this paper, the impact of PLCReducer is analyzed. To analyze the impact algorithm is applied on five different java-based projects and the amount of cohesion before and after applying the algorithm is shown in the paper. Also, the results are compared with an existing approach.
Keyword: Cohesion, Coupling, PLCoh, PLCReducer.
