  abstract = {On way to formalize system requirements is to express them using the
	object-oriented paradigm. In this case, the class model representing
	the structure of requirements is called a requirements metamodel,
	and requirements themselves are object-based models of natural-language
	requirements. In this paper, we show that such object-oriented requirements
	are well-suited to support a large class of requirements metrics.
	We define a requirements metamodel and use an automated measurement
	approach proposed in our previous work to specify requirements metrics.
	We show that it is possible to integrate 78 metrics from 11 different
	papers in the proposed framework. The software that computes the
	requirements metric values is fully generated from the specification
	of metrics.},
