A new metric for evaluating the performance and complexity of computer programs: A new approach to the traditional ways of measuring the complexity of algorithms and estimating running times
Abstract
This paper presents a refined complexity calculus model: r-Complexity, a new asymptotic notation that offers better complexity feedback for similar programs than the traditional Bachmann-Landau notation, providing subtle insights even for algorithms that are part of the same conventional complexity class. The architecture-dependent metric represents an enhancement that provides better sensitivity with respect to discrete analysis.
