Software Sizing and Cost Estimation Study,

Abstract

This study investigated techniques that would assist Navy programs in more accurately estimating software size in new weapon system developments. The study was exploratory in nature, and presents a description of existing software sizing and estimation methods and an evaluation of their strengths and weaknesses, in addition to a description and tabulation of a sizing data base collected and the estimating relationships developed.
