Abstract Understanding the architecture in a qualitative manner can be time-consuming and effort-intensive. Therefore the qualitative methods such as assessments presented in Chap. 6 are often done periodically at given milestones. However, architects need to monitor the quality of the architecture constantly and ensure that the characteristics of the architecture are within the limits of the product boundaries. In this chapter we present a set of measures used for measuring architectures and detailed designs. We explore the existing measures and present the ones which are common in industrial applications. Towards the end of the chapter we show the limits of selected measures by using an openly available industrial data set from an automotive OEM.
