Cost Estimation Measurement in Software Development Based on Enhanced Layer Model

Abstract

Cost estimation in the early phase of the software development helps the developers to find out that how many software requirements would be implemented during the different releases of the software. Cost serves as an important criterion for the selection and prioritization of the software requirements. Different methods have been developed for the estimation of the software cost like lines of code (LOC), function point (FP), and constructive cost model (COCOMO) model. Based on our review, we identify that in literature less attention is given to the estimation of the cost of the requirements; and how these requirements are employed to find out the different parameters which are used for the estimation of the cost of the software, if it is developed by the Indian Software Industries. Therefore, in order to deal this issue, we proposed an enhanced layer based model for the estimation of the cost of the software. Finally, the proposed method is explained by the case study.
