Abstract

Effective Software cost estimation is one of the most challenging and important activities in Software development. The software industry does not estimate projects well. In this paper we have represented size in KLOC as a Fuzzy number. A new model is presented using fuzzy logic to estimate effort required in software development. We use MATLAB for tuning the parameters of famous COCOMO model. The performance of model is evaluated on published software projects data. Comparison of results from our model with existing prevalent models is done.
