Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleA HYBRID INTELLIGENT MODEL FOR SOFTWARE COST ESTIMATIONWei Lin Du, Luiz Fernando Capretz, Ali Bou Nassif, Danny HoAccurate software development effort estimation is critical to the success of software projects. Although many techniques and algorithmic models have been developed and implemented by practitioners, accurate software development effort prediction is still a challenging endeavor in the field of software engineering, especially in handling uncertain and imprecise inputs and collinear characteristics. In this study, a hybrid intelligent model combining … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 28 Sep 2013 · 7,745 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleA Novel Algorithmic Cost Estimation Model Based on Soft Computing TechniqueIman Attarzadeh, Siew Hock OwProblem statement: Software development effort estimation is the process of predicting the most realistic use of effort required for developing software based on some parameters. It has always characterized one of the biggest challenges in Computer Science for the last decades. Because time and cost estimate at the early stages of the software development are the most difficult to obtain … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleA Cost Estimation Model for Repair Bridges Based on Artificial Neural NetworkMohamed Bouabaz, Mounir HamamiEstimating the total cost of bridges repair and maintenance with high accuracy is an important components, and points to a need for a cost estimation model. This paper focuses on the development of a more accurate estimation model for repair and maintenance of bridges in developing countries using artificial neural networks. Cost and design data for two categories of repair … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,298 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSoftware Cost Estimation Model Based on Integration of Multi-agent and Case-Based ReasoningHasan Al-SakranAccurate software cost estimation is a vital task that affects the firm's software investment decisions before committing required resources to that project or bidding for a contract. This study proposes an improved Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) approach integrated with multi-agent technology to retrieve similar projects from multi-organizational distributed datasets. The study explores the possibility of building a software cost estimation model … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,740 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleESTIMATION OF CLAIM COST DATA USING ZERO ADJUSTED GAMMA AND INVERSE GAUSSIAN REGRESSION MODELSYulia Resti, Noriszura Ismail, Saiful Hafizah JamaanIn actuarial and insurance literatures, several researchers suggested generalized linear regression models (GLM) for modeling claim costs as a function of risk factors. The modeling of claim costs involving both zero and positive claims experience has been carried out by fitting the claim costs collectively using Tweedie model. However, the probability of zero claims in Tweedie model is not allowed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2013 · 7,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSoftware Development Effort Estimation Using Relational Database and Optimized Learning MechanismRavi Kumar B. N., Yeresime SureshAccurately estimating the cost of software development is crucial for effective project planning and resource allocation. However, traditional cost estimation methods rely heavily on expert judgment and historical data, which can be time consuming and prone to errors. This study suggests a learning-based cost estimation model that leverages relational databases to improve accuracy. The proposed approach estimates project cost based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 7 Apr 2023 · 6,313 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImproving the Accuracy of Effort Estimation through Fuzzy Set Representation of SizeCh. Satyananda Reddy, KVSVN RajuProblem statement: The precision and reliability of the effort estimation is very important for the competitiveness of software companies. The uncertainty at the input level of the Constructive Cost Model (COCOMO) yields uncertainty at the output, which leads to gross estimation error in the effort estimation. Fuzzy logic-based cost estimation models are more appropriate when vague and imprecise information was … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,085 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsLoad Balancing Technique Based on Broadcasting and Residual Energy Using Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy Protocol (LBEACH)Abdullah Soliman Alshraa, Venus Wazeer SamawiOne of the important factors of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is sensors lifetime. Elongating sensors lifetime increases the benefits from the network capabilities as much as possible. To elongate WSNs lifetime, power consumption should be reduced. To do so, load balance technique is applied to distribute the energy consumption among cluster’s nodes in the WSN. In each cluster, the node … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 13 Oct 2015 · 6,610 accessesView PDFCite
