Abstract
A view of software measurement that disagrees with the model presented in a recent paper by Kitchenham, Pfleeger, and Fenton, is given. Wher eas Kitchenham, Pfleeger, and Fenton argue that properties used to def ine measures should not constrain the scale type of measures, we conte nd that that is an inappropriate restriction. In addition, a misinterp retation of Weyuker's properties is noted.
