Summarization of Software Cost Estimation [PDF]

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2011
AbstractThe software cost management is one of the most important factors in the development of software industry. The cost management is a main content of software project management, currently, the cost management is a weaker field of software project management than oher fields, while cost estimation is a key field of effective cost management.
