DACS–USC CSSE Data Repository: Overview and Status Jo Ann Lane USC CSSE Tom McGibbon Quanterion
DACS-USC Data Repository Overview • Goal of repository • Capture and analyze software and software engineering data and make it available to the DACS and USC CSSE communities • Candidate uses • Support software, systems, and SoS engineering research • Provide searchable data to support • Cost estimation: ROMs* based upon • Actual data – at least three records • A single software size and application domain • Project planning and management: life cycle model information, key risks, lessons learned, templates, estimation heuristics * Provide links to cost model vendors for additional support
Initial Prototype Contents • Software, system, system of systems • Size • Schedule • Data entry form for new records • Administrative tools to manage data Based on sanitized COCOMO data…
Planned/Potential Contents • Software, system, system of systems • Size, schedule, total cost of ownership, interoperability, and quality data/trends • Data entry forms • Administrative data management tools • Lessons learned (acquirer and supplier perspectives) • Counting rules for quantitative data • Software/system characteristics • Life cycle models, architecture styles, tools used, tool evaluations • Process-related artifacts • Templates, characteristics, home-grounds Investigating wiki and knowledge management tools for non-quantitative data…
Planned for End of May Delivery • Initial capability • Software engineering data • Sanitized COCOMO data • Query capability by software size and domain • Statistical analysis outputs showing range and distribution of values • Lessons learned/heuristics • Start with data submitted on Data & Analysis Center for Software (DACS) LinkedIn site Would like to include data from other cost model vendors!
Benefits for Contributing Cost Model Vendors • Link from DACS-USC repository to your website for additional information • DACS-USC repository does not plan to replace cost model tools for detailed estimation • New data submitted directly to DACS-USC repository made available to participating cost model vendors • Vendor data not shared with others • Vendor data only used • In aggregations with other data • To calculate statistical outputs
