Software Estimation Framework for Packaged Products
Shailesh Kumar Shivakumar · International Journal of Project Management and Productivity Assessment · 2020
Packaged products play a major role in successful implementation of various software projects. Many of the software solutions are built around packaged products. In this paper, the authors propose a novel “software packaged product estimation framework” for an end to end estimation framework for estimating effort for packaged products. The software packaged product estimation framework provides end to end estimation coverage for various project lifecycle stages and supporting activities. The software packaged product estimation framework was used to predict the effort for two projects with MMRE of 0.261 and pred(0.3) of 66.67%.
