Abstract—According to the requirements and characteristics of software quality comprehensive evaluation, a matter-element extension synthesis evaluation method is introduced, and its shortcomings and problems are also discussed in the practical evaluation process. Especially, the matter-element model, correlation function, matter-element value space and multilevel metrics data transmission in the original method that can’t adapt for multi-level evaluation index system are analyzed. Moreover, the all elements and algorithm caused these shortcomings and problems have been studied and improved. Then a new multi-layer matter-element extension synthesis evaluation method is created. The metrics results and conclusion obtained by this new evaluation method are more objective, accurate and reliable than the original.

Index Terms—software quality, matter-element model, extension algorithm, evaluation index system, evaluation grade
