The project is about developing smart home device. A person on your team who has done this before estimates the total lines of code to be 100K LOC. The software requires very high reliability, with high complexity and memory constraint. Team members are known with high analyst capability and some of them are highly experienced of the application. The team is also very fluent in the software tools used in the system development. All other factors can be considered to be nominal.

a) Calculate the total effort (E) needed for this project.

b) Calculate the total duration (D) of this project in months.

c) Calculate the suggested number of team members (P).
