Abstract
- Taking generative software development as our point of departure, we introduce generative software complexity as a measure for quantifying the structural complexity of software. After explaining that it is the same as Kolmogorov complexity, we discuss its merits from the viewpoint of software understanding. The results obtained are in many ways unsatisfactory, but sufficiently intriguing to warrant further work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
