Abstract

This paper presents a conceptual model of software development resource data and validates the model by reference to the published literature on necessary resource data for development support environments. The conceptual model presented here was developed using a top-down strategy. A resource data model is a prerequisite to the development of integrated project support environments which aim to assist in the processes of resource estimation, evaluation and control. The model proposed is a four dimensional view of resources which can be used for resource estimation, utilization, and review. The model is validated by reference to three publications on resource databases, and the implications of the model arising out of these comparisons is discussed.
