The estimating software development cost remains a complex problem, one that continues to attract a considerable amount of research attention. Improving the accuracy of the cost estimation models ...

One of the major difficulties in Controlling software development project cost overruns and schedule delays has been developing practical and accurate software cost models. Software development could ...

We show that the maximum likelihood (ML) estimates of the parameters of a well-known software reliability model are not consistent as the observation period for observed software failures extends to ...
