Term Paper Abstract
Economic analysis techniques
and software cost estimation have become an integral part of the planning
stage of any software engineering activity. This paper focuses on the
article on Software Engineering Economics by Dr. Barry Boehm (IEEE Trans on
Software Engg Vol 10) and summarizes the trends in software engineering
economics and provides an overview of economic analysis techniques, software
cost estimation, the major estimation techniques, algorithmic cost models
available and their applicability to software engineering and management.
The paper further discusses the various recent contributions to the topic
and possible future extensions into the field. The paper also includes my
comments on the results presented in the IEEE journal and its future
relevance.
