What is Web Size Measure

Chapter 1
Handbook of Research on Web Information Systems Quality
A measure used to forecast the size of a developed Web application. The size measure may assume that application’s size corresponds directly to the size of the problem to be solved in order to deliver a corresponding application, or it may assume that an application’s size corresponds to the actual delivered size of an application.

Abstract
Surveying and classifying previous work on a particular field brings several benefits, which are: 1) to help organise a given body of knowledge; 2) to provide results that can help identify gaps that need to be filled; 3) to provide a categorisation that can also be applied or adapted to other surveys; and 4) to provide a classification and summary of results that may benefit practitioners and researchers who wish to carry out meta-analyses. This chapter presents a survey literature of size measures (attributes) that have been proposed for Web effort estimation. These measures are classified according to a proposed taxonomy. We also discuss ways in which Web companies can devise their own size measures.
