Experiences on Developer Participation and Effort Estimation

2011 37th EUROMICRO Conference on Software Engineering and Advanced Applications, 2011
Software effort estimation is critical for resource allocation and planning. Accurate estimates enable managers to distribute the workload among resources in a balanced manner. The actual workload of developers may be different from the values observed in project management tools.

Estimating the Effort to Develop Screen Mockups

2013 39th Euromicro Conference on Software Engineering and Advanced Applications, 2013
There is empirical evidence supporting the usefulness of screen mockups in improving the comprehension of use cases. Though a cost-benefit analysis would require an estimate of the effort required to produce them. In this paper, we present an empirical study with students and professionals to estimate the effort to develop mockups starting from use ...

Effort estimation in incremental software development

IEE Proceedings - Software, 2003
Incremental software development offers many benefits compared with more traditional development approaches. Indeed, incremental approaches have been utilised for many years due to the involvement of users, the early demonstration of capability and the potential for risk reduction that they offer.

Estimating size and effort in fourth-generation development

IEEE Software, 1988
The authors report on the building of an information system for a correspondence school with both many students and many types of students, for which they recommended a fourth-generation-language approach. Because they were sceptical about the massive productivity gains claimed for fourth-generation-language development, and because they did not know ...

A model for software development effort and cost estimation

IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering, 1997
Several algorithmic models have been proposed to estimate software costs and other management parameters. Early prediction of completion time is absolutely essential for proper advance planning and aversion of the possible ruin of a project. L.H. Putnam's (1978) SLIM (Software LIfecycle Management) model offers a fairly reliable method that is used ...
