This paper describes the start of the implementation of Scrum within BMC Software (Identity Management business unit). It describes the project, the project structure and the firs...
Intermediate COCOMO Model computes effort as a function of program size and a set of cost drivers. Effort adjustment factor (EAF) is calculated using 15 cost drivers. EAF is an imp...
A probabilistic model for software development projects is constructed. The model can be applied to compute an estimate for the development time of a project. The chances of succee...
Estimating time and costs is a crucial factor in application development projects and low error margins are a priority. In line with the very fast evolution of Internet technologi...
