Enhancing the Cocomo estimation models
Randy Smith, Brandon J. Dixon, Allen S. Parrish, J. Hale · IEEE Software · 2000
In software engineering, team task assignments appear to have a significant potential impact on a project's overall success. The authors propose task assignment effort adjustment factors that can help tune existing estimation models. They show significant improvements in the predictive abilities of both Cocomo I and II by enhancing them with these factors.
