Abstract |
Software Project Estimation is the process of predicting the most realistic use of effort required to develop or maintain software based on incomplete, uncertain and/or noisy input. Effort estimates may be used as input to project plans, iteration plans, budgets and investment analyses, pricing processes and bidding rounds. There are many ways of categorizing estimation approaches like Expert estimation where the estimate is produced based on judgmental processes. The Formal estimation model where the usage of a formula derived from historical data. Combination-based estimation is based on a judgmental or mechanical combination of estimates from different sources. We present a hybrid technique to the sizing problem in Estimation which is very much critical to a project's success. |
