Comparative Analysis Of Functional Size Measurement Methods On Software Development Projects

Abstract

­This paper presents the role and significance of the estimation of programming sizes when estimating the execution of programming exercises and in assessing exertion for new programming undertakings. ­is paper shows the comparative analysis of four standard programming estimating techniques (the Albrecht/IFPUG, MkII FPA, NESMA, and COSMIC method) that have professed to be practical size estimation techniques and look at the genuine idea of their size scales. ­is paper identifies find that sizes delivered by the Albrecht/IFPUG and MkII FPA and NESMA techniques are entirely a size of standard (improvement) exertion. Only the COSMIC method gives a genuine proportion of practical size and therefore the most appropriate method for execution of examinations crosswise over undertakings utilizing diverse advancements.
