Question

Relation of COCOMO model is

• A. $E=a*(KLOC)^6$
• B. $E=a*(KLOC)^5$
• C. $E=a*(KLOC)^7$
• D. $E=a*(KLOC)^3$

Answer 1

Option NONE OF THESE

 BASIC COCOMO MODEL

It is the one type of static model to estimates software development effort quickly and roughly. It mainly deals with the number of lines of code and the level of estimation accuracy is less as we don’t consider the all parameters belongs to the project. The estimated effort and scheduled time for the project are given by the relation:

$Effort (E) = a*(KLOC)^{b}  MM$
$Scheduled Time (D) = c*(E)^{d}  Months(M)$

Where,

• E = Total effort required for the project in Man-Months (MM).
• D = Total time required for project development in Months (M).
• KLOC = the size of the code for the project in Kilo lines of code.
• a, b, c, d = The constant parameters for a software project.

Comments

Bro, is it required to remember these exponent values?

---

yes, in case you don’t want to take any risk. Most of the time, these values are given.
