abstract

a successful software should be finalized with determined and predetermined cost and time. software is a production which its approximate cost is expert workforce and professionals. the most important and approximate software cost estimation (sce) is related to the trained workforce. creative nature of software projects and its abstract nature make extremely cost and time of projects difficult to estimate. various methods have been presented in the software project cost estimation for performing a software project in the area of software engineering. cocomo ii model is one of the most documented models among template-based methods that has been proposed by bohm. common methods for estimating the time and cost are essentially abstract, accordingly, providing new methods for sce is required and necessary. in this paper, a new method is presented to solve the problem of sce by using hybrid particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm and k-nearest neighbor (knn) algorithm. the method was evaluated on 6 multiple datasets with 8 different evaluation criteria. obtained results show the more accurate performance of the proposed method.

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 Mathematical Model in Cell Formation Problem with Consideration of Inventory and Backorder: Genetic and Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithms

Cell Formation (CF) is the initial step in the configuration of cell assembling frameworks. This paper proposes a new mathematical model for the CF problem considering aspects of production planning, namely inventory, backorder, and subcontracting. In this paper, for the first time, backorder is considered in cell formation problem. The main objective is to minimize the total fixed and variable...
