  • Abstract
    We present a suite of metrics that can be used to evaluate the complexity of a library of a software platform. We then use those metrics to evaluate parts of two major platforms - .NET and Java. Our findings indicate that each of the two platforms has its own strengths and weaknesses, and none of the two is clearly superior to the other.
