چکیده

Estimation of cost and time to develop a software product P is a well known problem. Among the possible ways to do it is analogy with old finished projects. We describe an experiment using different versions of the Fuzzy c-Means algorithm, to find projects similar to P . Then the information about these projects is used to estimate the effort needed to build P .
