COCOMOII Model
The post-architecture model is the most detailed of the COCOMO
II models. The estimate produced at the post-architecture level are
based on the basic formula PM=A×Size^B×M used in the early design
estimates, where PM stands estimate effort in terms of person
month, M stands multiplier, Size indicates system size in terms of
KDSI (thousands of source line instructions), A and B are the
constant factors. The attributes that are used to adjust the
initial estimates and create multiplier M in the post-architecture
model are called cost drivers. In this question, we would like to
see how cost drivers influence the effort estimate. Given a
project, a value for the exponent B of 1.17 has been estimated.
System size is 128KDSI. A (a constant factor) has been estimated as
2.5. Here, we assume that reliability, complexity, memory
constraint, tool use and schedule are the key cost drivers in the
project. All of the other cost drivers have nominal value of 1. The
detail multiplier of each cost driver is listed in the following
table.
Cost Drivers
Estimate
Reliability
Very High, multiplier =1.39
Complexity
Very High, multiplier =1.3
Memory constraint
High, multiplier =1.21
Tool use
Low, multiplier =1.12
Schedule
Accelerated, multiplier =1.29
