A. T. Raslan, Nagy Ramdan Darwish · International journal of intelligent engineering and systems · 2018

Software effort estimation methods are used to measure the total time and forecast the amount of required effort to develop the software.In addition, agile software projects, the requirements are characterized by changeability during the software projects.Therefore using the traditional estimation models in agile software projects may cause inaccurate effort estimation.This paper proposes a framework which utilizes The Constructive Cost Model (COCOMO II), story points, and fuzzy logic models without affecting the sacredness of agile principles.Furthermore, the results show the proposed framework increasing the value of Prediction Level (Pred) to 80%.
