Efficient estimation of the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) using a new perspective

Impact on the Incremental Cost-Effectiveness Ratio of Using Alternatives to EQ-5D in a Markov Model for Multiple Sclerosis

OBJECTIVES This study responds to a request in the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance to assess the impact of using alternative sources of utility values, applied to multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) were calculated using utility values based on UK and Dutch values of EQ-5D, two UK mappings and one Dutch mapping of EQ...

A New Optimized Hybrid Model Based On COCOMO to Increase the Accuracy of Software Cost Estimation

The literature review shows software development projects often neither meet time deadlines, nor run within the allocated budgets. One common reason can be the inaccurate cost estimation process, although several approaches have been proposed in this field. Recent research studies suggest that in order to increase the accuracy of this process, estimation models have to be revised. The Construct...

A New Empirical Model to Increase the Accuracy of Software Cost Estimation (TECHNICAL NOTE)

We can say a software project is successful when it is delivered on time, within the budget and maintaining the required quality. However, nowadays software cost estimation is a critical issue for the advance software industry. As the modern software’s behaves dynamically so estimation of the effort and cost is significantly difficult. Since last 30 years, more than 20 models are already develo...
