The Role of Organisational Phenomena in Software Cost Estimation: A Case Study of Supporting and Hindering Factors [PDF]

e-Informatica Software Engineering Journal, 2018
Despite the fact that many researchers and practitioners agree that organisational issues are equally important as technical issues from the software cost estimation (SCE) success point of view, most of the research focus has been put on the development ...

Software project development cost estimation

Journal of Systems and Software, 1985
AbstractThis paper reports the results of an empirical investigation of the relationships between effort expended, time scales, and project size for software project development. The observed relationships were compared with those predicted by Lawrence Putnam's Rayleigh curve model and Barry Boehm's COCOMO model. The results suggested that although the

Cognitive Limits of Software Cost Estimation [PDF]

First International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2007), 2007
This paper explores the cognitive limits of estimation in the context of software cost estimation. Two heuristics, representativeness and anchoring, motivate two experiments involving psychology students, engineering students, and engineering practitioners.

Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.
