摘要：Maintainability is that phase which may help the designer for improving the quality of the software system before deliver to a customer. This paper uses a multivariate linear model, which estimates the maintainability of a class diagram in the term of reliability, portability that are the sub-characteristics of maintainability which are use to evaluate maintainability estimation model of class diagram and create the Maintainability Estimation Metrics for a maintainability estimation of class diagram. These metrics help a software designer for the purpose of improving the maintainability of a class diagram in the design phase, which are helpful in feature to reduce the increasing high cost of software maintenance phase
