Summary of Presentation of March 5, 1999

	We completed our presentation and discussion of the material of 
Chapter 18 in the textbook by examining some component level metrics.
These metrics have two basic purposes:
	1.  evaluate how well the components meet required standards;
	2.  guide assignment of personnel and resources to various 
		components for testing and maintenance.
The textbook covers these topics on pages 536 - 544.
	Among the metrics in these sections, we have already covered 
McCabe cyclomatic complexity.  It is the most commonly used of these 
metrics, and students should review their notes on this topic.  We did not
repeat that material in this presentation.
	Instead, we concentrated upon coupling and cohesion metrics as
outlined on pages 536 - 538 of the textbook.  We provided many details
which are not in the textbook.
