Estimating Software Project Effort Using Analogies
Accurate project effort prediction is an important goal for the software engineering community. To date most work has focused upon building algorithmic models of effort, for example COCOMO. These can be calibrated to local environments. We describe an alternative approach to estimation based upon the use of analogies. The underlying principle is to characterize projects in terms of features (fo...
متن کاملEstimating Agile Software Project Effort: An Empirical Study
This paper describes an empirical study of effort estimation in agile software development. Estimated effort and actual effort of a 46-iteration project are collected and analyzed. The results show that estimation in agile development is more accurate than that in traditional development even though agile developers still underestimate the effort. However, estimation accuracy is not improved ov...
متن کاملf COCOMO: Estimating Software Project Effort and Cost
The COnstructive COst MOdel, COCOMO, was developed to estimate the effort and cost to complete a software project. All business enterprises involved in developing software must know their costs to maintain their long-term viability. COCOMO measures the size of the project is lines of code. When the size of the project is measured in function points, COCOMO uses a function points to lines of cod...
متن کاملEstimating Software Development Effort using Tabu Search
Some studies have been recently carried out to investigate the use of search-based techniques in estimating software development effort and the results reported seem to be promising. Tabu Search is a meta-heuristic approach successfully used to address several optimization problems. In this paper, we report on an empirical analysis carried out exploiting Tabu Search on two publicly available da...
متن کاملEstimating Software Project Effort by Analogy Based on Linguistic Values
Estimation models in software engineering are used to predict some important attributes of future entities such as software development effort, software reliability and programmers productivity. Among these models, those estimating software effort have motivated considerable research in recent years. The prediction procedure used by these software-effort models can be based on a mathematical fu...
