This document outlines a general procedure for software cost estimation in any environment. The basic concepts of work and effort estimation are explained, some popular resource estimation models are reviewed, and the accuracy of resource estimates is discussed. A software cost prediction procedure based on the experience of the Software Engineering Laboratory in the flight dynamics area and incorporating management expertise, cost models, and historical data is described. The sources of information and relevant parameters available during each phase of the software life cycle are identified. The methodology suggested incorporates these elements into a customized management tool for software cost prediction. Detailed guidelines for estimation in the flight dynamics environment developed using this methodology are presented.
