Intermediate COCOMO Model computes effort as a function of program size and a set of cost drivers. Effort adjustment factor (EAF) is calculated using 15 cost drivers. EAF is an imp...
This paper proposes a novel method to generate synthetic project cases and add them to a fit dataset for the purpose of improving the performance of analogy-based software effort ...
COCONUT calibrates effort estimation models using an exhaustive search over the space of calibration parameters in a COCOMO I model. This technique is much simpler than other effo...
