Generally, one should not look at precision but get the idea behind this: Work is divided equivalently among people and lines of code. And those folks make either sh1tload of money or help their self-reliance by publishing their theories.
#DETAILED COCOMO MODEL EXAMPLE SOFTWARE#
What gives? Why is there an order of magnitude+ discrepancy between the results I'm getting and the results this model predicts? JulesH 14:10, 25 September 2006 (UTC) Because it is Software Engineering article. I mean, does industry actually accept the estimates that this method produces? For small projects? For the project I'm currently working on, even using the most generous estimates plausible with the intermediate method, it reckons it should have taken us 3 1/2 years, and we're approaching release quality now after 3 months. DSParillo 18:50, 16 January 2007 (UTC) Is this method considered accurate? All effort adjustment factors are evenly weighted.
#DETAILED COCOMO MODEL EXAMPLE DRIVER#
NO cost driver is more important that any other. It seems to me that the first paragraph is either 1) an observation noted in COCOMO (therefor it surely is then a part of the model), 2) an observation made by others (in which case it should state - with sources - who has made this observation), or (to a lesser probability) 3) original research by the editor (and should not be included). The first sentance of the first paragraphs says the observation from the model is that motivation is most important but 2nd paragraph states that motivation is not part of the model! Also, who are researchers? And who " suggest that leadership and teamsmanship are the most important skills"? The single most important driver is software complexity, followed by personnel attributes (capability and experience, not motivation)." Personnel motivation is not part of the model. This would suggest that leadership and teamsmanship are the most important skills of all, but this point was largely ignored. " One of the most important observations in the model is that personnel motivation overwhelms all other parameters. I think the last two paragraphs of this article are badly written (although the rest is great, albeit brief): Everything else just needs to be updates to COCOMO II.- TW Burger ( talk) 00:18, 20 March 2012 (UTC) Moved above comment from a separate topic to this topic, as it should be 108.67.200.56 ( talk) 22:56, 3 October 2015 (UTC) Last 2 paragraphs If no one objects, I'll goīrian jaress 00:44, (UTC) Yes, but not a whole new COCOMO II section Good idea but the addition of a note about it that COCOMO is superseded by COCOMO II and why is enough. I'd like to start a section on COCOMO II.
