According to a recent report [1], in 2015 alone, the revenue generated from mobile applications is expected to reach $100 billion. This figure indicates that one cannot neglect the potential of mobile application development business. Yet, despite this huge potential there is no calibrated and validated model for estimating the effort required to develop a new mobile application. In this paper, we...
Software effort, schedule, and cost estimation has the highest utility at the time of inception. Since software size is one of the most important determinant of software effort (and, hence, cost), it is extremely beneficial to estimate size early. This early estimation of size is likely to result in better planning for projects dealing with the development of software games. Yet, despite its utility,...
Based on research on currently prevalent WEB application project attributes and analysis on the influence factors on development effort of the project, an estimation methodology based on page is present, in which, when the user WEB pages DEMO developed after requirements development, project effort can be estimated by evaluating pages' complexity and corresponding team productivity which can be obtained...
Project planning requires early-on effort estimation. As such, predictions into the future are made with some degree of unavoidable uncertainty. It is likely that some of those predictions will be proven wrong. Thus, solid techniques and concrete procedures are needed to reduce the inaccuracy of estimates. This paper is motivated by practical industrial experiences. It presents a scalable technique...
Accurate estimation of the total project cost is important for project management. It can help an organization analyze the feasibility of a project and reduce the risk of project failure. In this paper, an ontology-based intelligent estimation agent, including a CMMI-based project planning ontology and a fuzzy cost estimation mechanism, is proposed for the total project cost estimation. The proposed...
