IIRC, David Gümbel's company ITOMIG [1] makes this kind of assesments, based
on technology developed during David's diploma thesis [2]. Unfortunately the
thesis is in German and the only whitepaper I found is German as well. Still,
David might be available for some suggestions, he should be reading this
list. (Also, Stefan should be able to read it ;) )
Cheers,
