Amplification of the COCOMO II regarding Offshore Software Projects
نویسندگان
چکیده
Offshore software development projects comprise of several critical success factors which may jeopardize the success of such a collaborative development project. We therefore require methods that will help in reducing the risk in such offshore outsourcing software development project. This article introduces a Study based on COCOMO II which can be used to estimate the effort of globally distributed projects. This will enable a more accurate estimation than when using the current traditional software development projects methods. It will also help predict the outcome of such collaborative project by reducing the overall risk.

متن کاملSafe and simple software cost analysis - IEEE Software
S imple software cost-analysis methods are readily available, but they aren’t always safe. The simplest method is to base your cost estimate on the typical costs or productivity rates of your previous projects. That approach will work well if your new project doesn’t have any cost-critical differences from those previous projects. But it won’t be safe if some critical cost driver has degraded. ...
