COCOMO Exercises 1. Assume that a system for simple student registration in a course is planned to be developed and its estimated size is approximately 10000 lines of code. The organization is proposed to pay RM1300 per month to software engineers. Compute the development effort, development time, and the total cost for product development. 2. Supposed a library management system (LMS) is to be designed for a university. From the project proposal, the following five major components are identified: The database size and application experience are very important to this project. The use of the software tool and the main storage are highly considerable. The virtual machine experience and its volatility can be kept low. All other cost drivers have nominal requirements. Estimate the development effort and the development time. 3. A project size of 200KLOC is to be developed. The software development team has average experience on similar types of projects. The project schedule is not very tight. Calculate the effort, development time, average staff size and productivity of the project. 4. Suppose a system for office automation is to be designed. It is clear from requirements that there will be five modules of size 0.5KLOC,1.5KLOC,2.0 KLOC, 1.0KLOC, and 2.0KLOC respectively. Complexity and reliability are high. Programmer's capability and experience is low. All other factors are of nominal rating. Determine the overall cost and schedule estimates. 5. Suppose that a project was estimated to be 600KLOC. Calculate the effort and development time for each of the three modes: organic, semi-detached and embedded
