Large Limits to Software Estimation
نویسنده
چکیده
Algorithmic (KCS) complexity results can be interpreted as indicating some limits to software estimation. While these limits are abstract they nevertheless contradict enthusiastic claims occasionally made by commercial software estimation advocates. Specifically, if it is accepted that algorithmic complexity is an appropriate definition of the complexity of a programming project, then claims of purely objective estimation of project complexity, development time, and programmer productivity are necessarily incorrect.

متن کاملAn Improved Algorithmic Method for Software Development Effort Estimation
Accurate estimating is one of the most important activities in the field of software project management. Different aspects of software projects must be estimated among which time and effort are of significant importance to efficient project planning. Due to complexity of software projects and lack of information at the early stages of project, reliable effort estimation is a challenging issue. ...
متن کاملEstimation of Friction Coefficient in Sediment Contained Flow through Rockfill
An increase in the flow velocity in flowthrough large porous media and deflection of flow regime from Darcy law causes a nonlinear relationship between hydraulic gradient and pore velocity of media. So many investigations have done previously in such Medias. One of the most important subjects in flowthrough large porous media is relationship between friction coefficient and flow characteristics...

متن کاملTask-Based Visualization Using Merged View
This paper presents the concept of a merged view, task-based visualization technique, and it discusses the benefits and limits of merged view. The time and cost of understanding and analyzing the software are main factors of software development cost. Therefore, large and complex modern software systems need automated tools to aid programmers to understand the software system. This paper invest...
