How to evaluate software reliability based on historical data of embedded software projects is one of the problems we have to face in practical engineering. Therefore, we establish a software reliability evaluation model based on code metrics. This evaluation technique requires the aggregation of software code metrics into project metrics. Statistical value methods, metric distribution methods, and econometric methods are commonly-used aggregation methods. What are the differences between these methods in the software reliability evaluation process, and which methods can improve the accuracy of the reliability assessment model we have established are our concerns. In view of these concerns, we conduct an empirical study on the application of software code metric aggregation methods based on actual projects. We find the distribution of code metrics for the projects under study. Using these distribution laws, we optimize the aggregation method of code metrics and improve the accuracy of the software reliability evaluation model.
