AdrienPoupa commented 6 years ago

[x] Using the use case points (UCP) approach (or one of its extensions), provide an estimate of the effort for the project.
[x] Using Basic COCOMO 81, provide an estimate of the effort for the project.
[x] Comment on the difference in estimates using the UCP approach and COCOMO 81.

As Estimating efforts means predicting efforts and predictions are not always correct. A single estimation model not always gives correct estimation. By merging models somehow gives better result than one estimation model. COCOMO model takes kloc as the input and generate single output. The use case model is used to predict the of future software system at an early development stage that helps to provide full control over the project progress. http://inpressco.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Paper24576-578.pdf
