EclipseMetricsScales
Scales allow us to normalise the various metrics' values to a 1-5 scale. This improves the meaningfulness of results: instead of simply throwing out numbers, we propose a normalised view that always holds the same information (e.g. the project is small, typical, large, huge).
If unspecified, the values are for the application level.
