The complexity simulator calculates the number of incoming and outgoing connections for each component.
To simulate your architecture in terms of complexity
1.Ensure you have the ABACUS file, containing your populated architecture, open.
2.Select Analysis | Complexity to run the simulation for Complexity.
Note
At this point, ABACUS will perform a structural evaluation of all architectures in the project and after a short time (with progress bars for feedback) a calculation complete dialog will appear.
3.Click OK to acknowledge the evaluation.
Tip
Refer to the Complexity Options section for Complexity settings. For training courses and further help on Complexity Evaluation please refer to the Avolution Community.
Component Properties
The following table lists the component properties that are output by the complexity evaluator. These properties will be shown in the Properties window with a property output row selector icon ( ) with the tooltip 'Complexity Output'.
