Repository Based Software Cost Estimation
نویسنده
چکیده
One important problem with software development projects is to get an early and nevertheless accurate estimation of the software development costs. In the literature various methods have been developed for this purpose. The most popular examples are Boehm's COCOMO , Albrecht's function-point method or Sneed's object-point method . The two last-named methods are based on early results of the analysis phase, whereas COCOMO is based on an a priori estimation of the software size in \lines of code". On the other hand, modern software development environments usually employ the object management facilities of a repository to store the documents created and maintained during software development. Hence, software cost estimation methods like the object-point method , which are based on early analysis results, can be implemented easily on top of the repository. In this paper we present such a repository based realization of software cost estimation methods.

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...

Estimating cost is a very wearisome activity in all aspect. A person with broad scope and good thinking for the future makes more precise decisions. It helps in governing and planning the software risks which are admirably correct and precise. In 1960 regression analysis and mathematical formulae were practiced to determine cost. We need to think more than simply putting numbers into a formula ...

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...
