  1. 1. Improving Estimation Accuracy using Better Similarity Distance in Analogy-based Software Cost Estimation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Xiaoyuan Chu; [2015]
    Keywords : Software Engineering; Project cost measurement.;

    Abstract : Software cost estimation nowadays plays a more and more important role in practical projects since modern software projects become more and more complex as well as diverse. To help estimate software development cost accurately, this research does a systematic analysis of the similarity distances in analogy-based software cost estimation and based on this, a new non-orthogonal space distance (NoSD) is proposed as a measure of the similarities between real software projects.

  2. 2. Feature Selection and Case Selection Methods Based on Mutual Information in Software Cost Estimation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Shihai Shi; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Software cost estimation is one of the most crucial processes in software development management because it involves many management activities such as project planning, resource  allocation and risk assessment. Accurate software cost estimation not only does help to make investment and bid plan but also enable the project to be completed in the limited cost and time. READ MORE

  5. 5. Investigating the Nature of Relationship between Software Size and Development Effort

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Avdelningen för för interaktion och systemdesign

    Author : Sohaib-Shahid Bajwa; [2008]
    Keywords : Software Effort Estimation; Functional Size Measurement; COSMIC Functional Size; ISBSG Data Set;

    Abstract : Software effort estimation still remains a challenging and debatable research area. Most of the software effort estimation models take software size as the base input. Among the others, Constructive Cost Model (COCOMO II) is a widely known effort estimation model. It uses Source Lines of Code (SLOC) as the software size to estimate effort. READ MORE
