چکیده

Software cost estimation (SCE) remains a complex problem, which continues to attract considerable research at an early stage in the software development process. Researchers have attempted different approaches. Lately, models based on artificial intelligence techniques have been developed. Case base reasoning (CBR) has emerged recently as a promising approach, with comparable accuracy and it is potentially easier for people to understand and apply. The aim of this paper is to propose cost estimation (CE) model that relies on determining the software features defined by software quality requirements specification according to the data analysis at an early stage of the software development life cycle with the support of case based reasoning technique

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...
