COnstructive COst MOdelwas introduced byDr. Barry Boehm’stextbookSoftware Engineering Economics. This model is now generally called“COCOMO 81”.it refers to a group of models and is used to estimate the development efforts which are involved in a project. COCOMO is based upon the estimation of ...

The results of the first two methods are very consistent and confirm expected highest sensitivity of the model to the imprecision of the size estimate. Error propagation allows determination of the combined impact of imprecision in multiple inputs and it is therefore most valuable from the practical...
Empirical assessment of model-driven engineering (MDE) is often qualitative in nature. While there are attempts to measure models, this attempts focus on model element counts only and not on estimation of effort, duration, and cost of MDE application development. We propose to fill this ga...
Basic COCMO Model is good for quick, early, rough order of magnitude estimate of software cost. It does not account for differences in hardware constraints, personal Quality and experience, use of modern tools and techniques, and other project attribute known to have a significant influence on ...

Here, in this paper, we mainly estimate maintenance cost of software using basic and intermediate model by maintaining Annual change traffic and thousand source lines of code as constant. We examine these values by varying on each case, thereby obtaining the final maintenance costs in man-months....
Changes can be made easily to the model and results evaluated quickly. In this paper we measure performance of VRS model through simulation result by comparing standard COCOMO Intermediate-Organic Model. This approach uses a model specification. Results demonstrate the model representativeness, and its...
