Software Engineering Cost Estimation using COCOMO II Model

Estimating the software cost and price to customer is vital role for software engineering. Accurate Software development cost estimation is important for effective project management such as budgeting project planning and control. Before software development processes begin, software cost and duration for any project should be agreement between developers and customers.In this paper, the effort required to develop the system, schedule needed to complete and the required average staff are estimated by using COCOMO constructive cost model model that is one of the algorithmic models. A mathematical formula is use to predict effort based on estimate of project size, thousands of sources of code KSLOC . First, this KSLOC must be calculated for the exiting project or other projects. Then ,the require effort, duration and averaging staffing are continued to calculate for each of three types of projects which are organic, semi detached and embedded All these estimates are implemented with Java Programming Language and Microsoft Access.
