摘要: Estimation is still a challenging process for planning and managing software projects. Often, estimates are being done on experiential or analogous basis using effort estimation models. Mostly, these approaches take size (e.g., Lines of Code, Function Points, Object points) other cost factors as the main inputs to estimation. This study focuses functional based Web application development investigates significance sizes each COSMIC Base Functional Component (BFC) types in explaining variation effort. A case was conducted collecting data 25 projects from organization. The results show that only one BFC Types can explain nearly good total size.
