Software Cost Estimation

Estimating Software Costs For each new software project, you need to know how much it will cost to develop it and how long it will take to develop it. These estimates are needed before any development can begin, but how is this done? Several estimation methods have been developed that share the following attributes: Project scope must be defined in advance. Software metrics are used as a support to be evaluated. Projects are divided into smaller PCs that are individually quoted. There are several options for …

Software Project Planning

Software Project Planning A software project is a complete methodology of programming progression from requirements gathering to testing and support, completing the execution steps within a specified period of time to achieve the desired software product.   The Need for Software Project Management Software development is an entirely new trend in the world of business, involving few structural programming elements. Most of the programming elements are customized to customer needs. Most importantly, the underlying technology changes and evolves so often and rapidly that the experience of one element may not be connected …

Software Management

What is a project? A project is a group of tasks that must be completed to achieve a definite result. A project is also defined as the set of inputs and outputs required to achieve a goal. Projects can range from simple to difficult and can be done by 1 or 100 people. Projects are usually explained and approved by the project manager or team leader. They exceeded expectations and goals, and it’s up to the team to manage the logistics and complete the project on time. For good …

SDLC MODELS

Waterfall Model : Winston Royce introduced the waterfall model in 1970. This model consists of his five phases: requirements analysis and specification, design, implementation and unit testing, integration and system testing, and operation and maintenance. The steps are always done in this order and never overlap. Developers must complete each phase before the next phase begins. This model is called the “waterfall model” because its graphical representation resembles a cascade of waterfalls.  Requirements Analysis and Specification Phase: The purpose …
