    Samenvatting

    We propose a new approach to aggregating software metrics from the micro-level of individual artifacts (e.g., methods, classes and packages) to the macro-level of the entire software system. The approach, Theil index, was developed for measuring economic inequality. In addition to measuring inequality for all system artifacts Theil index allows reasoning about inequality between groups of artifacts, e.g., implemented in different programming languages or by different teams.
