Software cost estimation models
Proceedings of the 5th Jerusalem Conference on Information Technology, 1990. 'Next Decade in Information Technology', 2002The importance of accurate cost estimates is discussed, and an overview of the existing methods for cost estimation is given. One class of models, namely, the parametric models, is then considered. The principles of parametric cost estimation models are examined, and an overview of such model is given.

Communication of software cost estimates
Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Evaluation and Assessment in Software Engineering, 2014The meaning of an effort or cost estimate should be understood and communicated consistently and clearly to avoid planning and budgeting mistakes. Results from two studies, one of 42 software companies and one of 423 individual software developers, suggest that this is far from being the case.

Estimating the Cost of Security for COTS Software
2003This paper describes enhancements being made to the University of Southern California's COnstructive COTS (COCOTS) integration cost model to address security concerns. The paper starts by summarizing the actions we have taken to enhance COCOMO II to model the impact of security on development effort and duration.

Software management and cost estimating error
Journal of Systems and Software, 2000Abstract Software cost estimating is an important concern for software managers and other software professionals. The hypothesized model in this research suggests that an organization's use of an estimate influences its estimating practices which influence both the basis of the estimating process and the accuracy of the estimate.

The development of a successfull software depends upon the accurate estimation, as various factors are responsible for the overall assessment of any project. The Sofware Cost Estimation is the most complicated and challenging task in software industry. Many estimation models are introduced by the time, that concludes estimation is not a precise science

Software Cost Estimation Meets Software Diversity
2017 IEEE/ACM 39th International Conference on Software Engineering Companion (ICSE-C), 2017The previous goal of having a one-size-fits-all software cost (and schedule) estimation model is no longer achievable. Sources of wide variation in the nature of software development and evolution processes, products, properties, and personnel (PPPPs) require a variety of estimation models and methods best fitting their situations.

A survey on software cost estimation in the chinese software industry
Proceedings of the Second ACM-IEEE international symposium on Empirical software engineering and measurement, 2008Although a lot of attention has been paid to software cost estimation since 1960, making accurate effort and schedule estimation is still a challenge. To collect evidence and identify potential areas of improvement in software cost estimation, it is important to investigate the estimation accuracy, the estimation method used, and the factors ...

Abstract : The objective of software cost estimating is to determine what resources will be needed to produce and to maintain the software associated with a project. Resources of particular interest in software cost estimating are manpower, computer time and elapsed time.
