  • Metrics to evaluate process objects
    Patent number: 7797136
    Abstract: A method and system to evaluate process objects for acceptability for use. New metrics that measure both object components and their relationships are used. The method selects metrics for the process objects that measure both the components and their relationships, compares measurements of the selected metrics with corresponding metric norms, and, based on the comparison, determines whether the process objects are acceptable. The system includes a memory to store metrics and process objects and a processor to select applicable metrics for the process objects, calculate the measurements of the selected metrics, compare the measurements to corresponding metric norms, and, based on the comparison, determine whether the process objects are acceptable.
