Estimating software project effort using analogies
, 1997 Accurate project effort prediction is an important goal for the software engineering community. To date most work has focused upon building algorithmic models of effort, for example COCOMO. These can be calibrated to local environments. We describe an

Adjusting effort estimation using micro-productivity profiles; pp. 71–80 [PDF]
Proceedings of the Estonian Academy of Sciences, 2013 We investigate a phenomenon we call micro-productivity decrease, which is expected to be found in most development or maintenance projects and has a specific profile that depends on the project, the development model, and the team.

An Artificial Neural Network Model for Project Effort Estimation
Systems, 2023 Estimating the project effort remains a challenge for project managers and effort estimators. In the early phases of a project, having a high level of uncertainty and lack of experience cause poor estimation of the required work.

A comparative study for estimating software development effort intervals
Software Quality Journal, 2010 Software cost/effort estimation is still an open challenge. Many researchers have proposed various methods that usually focus on point estimates. Until today, software cost estimation has been treated as a regression problem. However, in order to prevent overestimates and underestimates, it is more practical to predict the interval of estimations ...
