Which of the following uses empirically derived formulas to predict effort as a function of LOC or FP ?
Correct answer: D. Both FP-Based Estimation and COCOMO
- A. FP-Based Estimation
- B. Process-Based Estimation
- C. COCOMO
- D. Both FP-Based Estimation and COCOMO
Explanation
Both FP-based estimation and COCOMO use empirically derived relationships to estimate effort from software size. FP-based estimation uses function points, while COCOMO classically uses lines of code and related cost drivers.
