ABSTRACT:
A parametric software estimating system provides a class of user selectable size metrics. At least one of the metrics is adapted specifically for use with proposed object oriented software systems. An estimate of labor hours for various development categories can be provided along with estimated costs. The effects of imposing selected constraints on the development process can be dynamically studied enabling a user to evaluate alternatives.
