ABSTRACT
This paper proposes a novel model for measuring component based system agility. The idea of this model is to provide a quantitative measurement of the agility metric by measuring attributes which affect the component agility. The model provides an opportunity to expand the attributes that agility depends on and it can be adapted to different types of component-based systems. The practical application of the model is confirmed by measuring the agility of different components: Sparqube Picture Column component, Swing, AWT and Google Web Kit components.
