Abstract
In this paper, we present a case study of applying the metrics Mutation Index, Component Set, Dependency Index on Morphbank- a web based bioinformatics application - to track the effects of changing requirements on a software system and suggest design modifications to mitigate such impact. Morphbank is "an open web repository of biological images documenting specimen-based research in comparative anatomy, morphological phylogenetics, taxonomy and related fields focused on increasing our knowledge about biodiversity". This paper discusses the context of the case study, analyzes the results, highlights observations and learning, and mentions directions of future work.
