Utilizing the similarity meaning of label in class cohesion calculation

The cohesion is one of the design quality indicators in software engineering. The measurement of the value of cohesion is done by looking at the correlation between attributes and methods that are in a class. In Direct Distance Design Class Cohesion (D₃C₂) metrics, attributes, and methods are assumed to have a good correlation if they have a similar type. But, the similarity of type parameters and attributes do not always indicate that these attributes are managed (correlated) in the method. This study is trying to gain information that can enhance the degree of certainty of a correlation between the methods and attributes. Relatedness between them has been seen from closeness the meaning of the name tag attribute, method, and parameters. The experimental results declared an increase in the value of cohesion produced in line with the similarity of meaning.
