Programming Effort Estimation.
S. D. Conte, Hubert E. Dunsmore, Vincent Y. Shen · 1984
This research project investigates various models of programming effort estimation and prediction at various stages of the software development process. The project has led to several results and models. This report concentrates on results from the last year of our study (August, 1983 - August, 1984). Large-scale software development models are models that explain the effort in constructing software products involving a team of programmers.
