The Constructive Cost Model (COCOMO) is a procedural software cost estimation model developed by Barry W. Boehm. The model parameters are derived from fitting a regression formula using data from historical projects (63 projects for COCOMO 81 and 163 projects for COCOMO II).
AFCAA REVIC is a set of programs for use in estimating the cost of software development projects. [1] The Revised Enhanced Version of Intermediate COCOMO (REVIC) model is a copyrighted program available for public distribution under agreement with the REVIC developer, Ray Kile, and the U.S. Air Force Cost Analysis Agency (AFCAA).
The perhaps most common estimation methods today are the parametric estimation models COCOMO, SEER-SEM and SLIM. They have their basis in estimation research conducted in the 1970s and 1980s and are since then updated with new calibration data, with the last major release being COCOMO II in the year 2000.
The Constructive Systems Engineering Cost Model (COSYSMO) was created by Ricardo Valerdi while at the University of Southern California Center for Software Engineering. It gives an estimate of the number of person-months it will take to staff systems engineering resources on hardware and software projects.
If calculator gadget is not enabled, should just show the x_default and y_default values. Supports all the same parameters as {{ Superimpose }} except x and y are now formulas, and there are two new parameters: x_default and y_default for the initial x and y values.
M = the source metrics value measured by the WMFP analysis stage W = the adjusted weight assigned to metric M by the APPW model N = the count of metric types i = the current metric type index (iteration) D = the cost drivers factor supplied by the user input q = the current cost driver index (iteration) K = the count of cost drivers
Use case points (UCP or UCPs) is a software estimation technique used to forecast the software size for software development projects. UCP is used when the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and Rational Unified Process (RUP) methodologies are being used for the software design and development.
The function point is a "unit of measurement" to express the amount of business functionality an information system (as a product) provides to a user. Function points are used to compute a functional size measurement (FSM) of software.
