  • Abstract
    The author describes the results of recent research conducted at the Air Force Institute of Technology to assess which factors influence software schedules, and to determine which commercially available software-cost models contain algorithms that are most suitable for software schedule estimation. The suitability of scheduling methodologies, such as the Program Evaluation and Review Technique, for software scheduling is also discussed. Finally, an assessment of the current status of software schedule estimation is presented, along with recommendations for further work in this area
