Mathematical model and procedure for evaluation by software requirements complexity

Abstract:

Requirements Engineering provides an important basis for estimating time and effort in software development projects. Software requirements give a significant measure of product size to be developed. The University of Informatics Sciences (UCI) has an estimation method, which, in order to gain accuracy, incorporates a second estimate after the requirements phase to have more detailed technical input. This requirement shall be classified according to the complexity they bring to the software implementation. This article details a mathematical model for the classification of complexity in software requirements and a tool designed to facilitate the process of assessing the requirements on software development projects at UCI.
