  • This paper proposes a method for counting function point using goal and scenario based requirements. Function Point is a software sizing method and widely used as a basis to estimate software development cost. Requirements elicitation and analysis should be performed before function point analysis but function point analysis method doesn't deal with requirements elicitation and analysis. For that reason, Function point extraction method from existing requirements method is needed and if the requirements method has advantage for traceability and elicitation, it is suitable for managing cost. Goal and scenario method is widely used as requirements elicitation and analysis. It has also good traceability. Therefore, this paper discusses a method for extracting function point from requirements text gathered using the goal and scenario based requirements elicitation technique. The proposed method aims to establish and maintain traceability between function point and requirements text. Text based function point extraction guidance rules have been developed. The proposed methodology has been applied to Order Processing System development.

  • Over the past decade, numerous software managers and engineers have been concerned with measuring the size and complexity of software systems. Function point analysis technique is one of the most popular software sizing techniques. A reasonable software development plan through cost and time estimation should be a prerequisite for the successful project at the beginning stage of the project. It is generally known that software size measurement is useful for this kind of estimation and the function point analysis technique would be more effective than the others. However, it is difficult to apply the technique to object-oriented methodology widely used in the software industry. Thus, the purpose of this study is to present a case study on how to apply function point analysis technique to sizing of the software systems based on UML. The results of this study can be useful to managers and engineers.

  • In this paper we consider an estimation of the discontinuous variance function in nonparametric heteroscedastic random design regression model. We first propose estimators of the change point in the variance function and then construct an estimator of the entire variance function. We examine the rates of convergence of these estimators and give results for their asymptotics. Numerical work reveals that using the proposed change point analysis in the variance function estimation is quite effective.

  • Our research proposes how to, systematically, count function point from initial functional requirements based on natural language. Gradually, Function Point Analysis is used to overcome the limitation of LOC(Line Of Code) for estimating software size. Moreover, it plays an important role in cost management. Function point is derived from initial requirements and is determined by experts who have an education for function point. However, currently there are few researches to cout function point by systematic or automatic rules. Through extending our porposed method, we expect that function point is able to be counted automatically or semi-automatically. This would be our future research

  • In Korea, we still use function point based cost estimations for software size and cost of a project. The current problem is that we make difficultly calculating function points with requirements and also have less accurate. That is, it is difficult for non-experts to analyze requirements and calculate function point values with them, and even experts often derive different function points. In addition, all stakeholders strongly make the validity and accuracy of the function point values of the project before /after the development is completed. There are methods for performing function point analysis using source code [1][2][3][4] and some researchers [5][6][7] attempt empirical verification of function points about the estimated cost. There is no research on automatic cost validation with source code after the final development is completed. In this paper, we propose automatically how to calculate Function Points based on natural language requirements before development and prove FP calculation based on the final source code after development. We expect validation by comparing the function scores calculated by forward engineering and reverse engineering methods.

  • Recently, development paradigm of information system is turning into object oriented and component based, and this methodology is leading the software industry. To acclimatize aptly to this trend, users demand the assessment of software expenses to change with the appropriate model of computing costs of the environment, and some people are actually studying the concept of Object Oriented Function Point and UCP method. Especially, Object Oriented Function Point Measurement Process has good points in overcoming the bound of LOC and the existing the Function Point Measurement Process because Object Oriented Function Point Measurement Process is applicable to the early stage of development project mainly with the used cases, and valid to the life long period as the each stage of software products develops, and always understandable to communicate with users by the UML mark rules. Accordingly, this research is to measure Functional Point at ROFP and AOFP in accordance with the development project of information system by the national defense CBD methodology procedures and UML Interrelation Analysis that are recently and widely used in the developmental environment of object oriented information system. Furthermore, this study suggests the measurement method to obtain Functional Point, and identifies service function and object/class function in the correlation analysis of use case and class based on the products and UML modeling via traditional FPA model and object oriented FPA model. Above all, this study is to demonstrate the improvement of traditional Function Point Measurement Process, IFPUG-CPM and software cost basis, and reveal Function Point Measurement Process, which is appropriate to the development of object oriented information system, and suggest the evaluation results of the compatibility through case studies.

  • A fixed-point iteration is proposed to integrate the stress and state variables in the incremental analysis of plastic deformation. The Conventional Newton-Raphson method requires a second-order derivative of the yield function to generate a complicated code, and the convergence cannot be guaranteed beforehand. The proposed fixed-point iteration does not require a second-order derivative of the yield function, and convergence is ensured for a given strain increment. The fixed-point iteration is easier to implement, and the computational time is shortened compared with the Newton-Raphson method. The plane-stress condition is considered for the biaxial loading conditions to confirm the convergence of the fixed-point iteration. 3-dimensional tensile specimen is considered to compare the computational times in the ABAQUS/explicit finite element analysis.

  • Function Point Method have been applied to measure software size estimation in industry because it supports to estimate the software's size by user's view not developer's. However, the current function point method has some problems for example complexity's upper limit etc. So, In this paper, an enhanced function point model. Micro FP model, was suggested. Using this model, software effort estimation can be more efficiently because this model has some regression equation. This model specially can be applied to estimate in detail the large application system's size Analysis results show that measured software size by this Micro FP model has the advantage with more correlative between the one of LOC, as of 10 applications operated in an large organization.
