To develop a software, there is a relationship between development organization's productivity, effort, development schedule, and software size. It is software equation that motive these relations. Basically, relationship between size-effort and size-schedule is applied. If this relationship is not proper, there would be no effect of the cost-schedule tradeoff equation that is derived from software equation, and the manpower profile analysis, etc. To solve these unwanted problems, we presented a modified software equation and a cost-schedule tradeoff model based on the modified software equation. To improve software development success rate, applying proposed model will help in contract negotiation or bid.

Generally, software development schedule compression is decided within 75% of nominal schedule. However, there are some difficulties when we judge the possibility of development schedule compression because a nominal schedule has not been definitely. Therefore, this paper investigates various nominal schedule estimation models and decides the optimum range. Basing on the performance of ISBSG Release 8,614 projects are extracted from the actual 1,595 projects. We presented development effort estimation model from those data. Also, we derived the development schedule model from the development effort. When you apply the proposed model, you will be able to estimate development effort and schedule required for the development more actually.
