In the metric suite for Object-Oriented design put forward by Chidamber and Kemerer(C&K) [1], it is observed that Weyuker property 9 [2] is not satisfied by any of the Structural Inheritance Complexity Metrics. The same is also observed for candidate structural inheritance complexity metric by Brito and Carapuca [3] and On the Applicability of Weyuker property 9 to Object-Oriented Structural Inheritance Complexity Metrics by Gursaran and Roy [4]. In this paper we present a new Inheritance Tree Metric (ITM) which satisfies the Weyuker property 9 (Interaction Increases Complexity) i.e. when two classes are combined, the interaction between classes can increase the complexity of ITM value. Examples supporting the applicability of the property are also presented.
