Software size has proved to be one of the main effort-and-cost drivers. It is widely accepted that software size is one of the key factors that has the potential to affect the effort and cost of the software projects. ...

Conducting an effective planning software is critical to their development, it is necessary to estimate, measure and control: time, cost and complexity. It needs to go beyond the idealization in diagrams for execution, ...

One of the bigger problem encountered in the process of system development is to complete projects with quality, on time and budgets provided. Having knowledge of what and how much needs to be produced arguably increases ...

Software effort estimation models has been an area of considerable research for many years and it is still a challenge for software engineering. Although Functional Size Measurement (FSM) methods have become widely used, ...
