Overview:
Software size is an important input for estimating the effort schedule and cost of software. However factors such as ever-expanding user requirements and the variety of software tools available today make it difficult to estimate the software size. Function Point Analysis (FPA) is a structured technique for software size estimation and helps overcome these difficulties. This technique is widely used through out the world and well tested on thousands of projects. This technique involves viewing the functionality of software from the users' perspective and then estimating the size based on the required functionality. The objective of the workshop is to provide training on Function Points Analysis estimation using IFPUG (International Function Point User Group Guidelines) technique for estimation size, effort and thereby derive project schedule for development and enhancement projects.
