Introduction • Tools used for estimation • Function Points • Units of measure based on functionality • DVC • The amount of data going through the system • Cocomo “COnstructive COst MOdel” • model for estimating effort, cost, and schedule for software projects • Developed 1981 • Cocomo II • Same as Cocomo but for newer/more modern practices • Developed 1997 – published in 2001
Proposed SSS Matrix • 21 Data Tables • 11 Forms • 7 Reports • Proposed Matrix
LINES OF CODE (SLOC) 9640 10410
FUNCTION POINTS:::OVERVIEW What is a Function Point? • A standard unit of measure that represent the functional size of a software application. • An application can be measured by the number of function points it delivers to the users of the application.
A SIMPLE SIX STEP COUNTING PROCESS • Identify all instances of each function type in the system. • Assign a complexity weight to each instance of a function type. • Calculate a weighted sum for each function type. • Determine the unadjusted function count (FC). • Determine the Value Adjustment Factor (VAF). • Calculate FP Count.
Calculating Function Points • Calculate unadjusted Function Count (FC) • Determine the Value Adjustment Factor (VAF) • Calculate Function Points
IDENTIFY FIVE STANDARD “FUNCTION TYPES” AND COMPLEXITY WEIGHT • Data Functions: • Internal logical files (ILFs) • External interface files (EIFs) • Transactional Functions: • External Inputs (EIs) • External Outputs (EOs) • External Inquiries (EIs)
LINES OF CODE (SLOC) ESTIMATE FROM FUNCTION POINTS Past date indicate that one FP translate into 25 times of code LOCs = 25 * 256 =6400 (approximately)
DATA VOLUME COUNTER:::OVERVIEW • Needs • Data Dictionary • Purpose • To calculate the input data volume
DATA VOLUME COUNTER:::RESULTS (FROM XIAN LONG) DVC = 146 vs. function point 256
DATA VOLUME COUNTER:::RESULTS (FROM MARTIN) DVC = 161 vs. function point 256
Cocomo II ::: Overview • To develop a software cost and schedule estimation model tuned to the life cycle practices of the 1990's and 2000's. • To develop software cost database and tool support • To provide a set of tools and techniques for evaluating the effects of software technology improvements on software life cycle costs and schedules.
Cocomo II:::Models • The Post-Architecture Model • Most detailed COCOMO 2 model. • Used after you've developed your project's overall architecture. • It has new cost drivers, new line counting rules & new equations. • The Early Design Model • Get rough estimates of a project's cost and duration before you've determined it's entire architecture. • It uses a small set of new Cost Drivers, and new estimating equations. Based on Unadjusted Function Points or KSLOC. • Application composition model • Used when software is composed from existing parts. • Reuse model • Used to compute the effort of integrating reusable components.
Cocomo II:::Early Design Model • Estimates can be made after the requirements have been done • Based on a standard formula for algorithmic models • Effort (person-months) = A´SizeB´M where • M = PERS ´ RCPX ´ RUSE ´ PDIF ´ PREX ´ FCIL ´ SCED; • A = 2.94 in initial calibration • Size in KLOC • B varies from 1.1 to 1.24 depending on novelty of the project, development flexibility, risk management approaches and the process maturity.
