The
COCOMO Suite is our name for a collection of COCOMO-related
estimation models and tools in various stages of development. These
models attempt to estimate impacts on software system cost, development
schedule, defect density, and even return on technology investment
associated with a variety of software development approaches and
processes. Factors effecting the software cost and schedule estimates,
and resulting in derivative COCOMO models and/or tools, include
the use of COTS, security, Rapid Application Development approaches,
and RUP/MBASE development models (non-waterfall). There are even
models going beyond the purely software development arena into systems
engineering.
USC COCOMO
81 This program is an implementation of the 1981 COCOMO Intermediate
model. It predicts software development effort, schedule, and effort
distribution via point estimates. It is available for Sun Sparc
Unix and Microsoft Windows 3.1/95/NT platforms.
USC COCOMO
II This program is an implementation of the COCOMO II Post-architecture
model. It predicts software development effort, schedule, and effort
distribution via range estimates. It is available for Sun Sparc
Unix, Microsoft Windows 95/NT, and Java-enabled platforms.
CODECOUNT(TM) The CodeCount
toolset is a collection of tools designed to automate the collection
of source code sizing information. The CodeCount toolset spans multiple
programming languages and utilizes one of two possible Source Lines
of Code (SLOC) definitions, physical or logical.
