LOC ESTIMATION Estimation is based on experience, size of previous
projects, size of competitor's solution, and the size of sub tasks that are created from bigger tasks.
A standard approach is:
For each Pi = 1/6( maxi, + 4 * BGi + mini)
Standard Deviation of S = (sd2 + sd2 +….sd2)1/2
Standard Deviation of E(i) = (max – min)/6

LOC FORMULA• α marginal cost per KLOC (added cost per KLOC)
• β exponent that reflects the nonlinearity of the relationship.
• γ fixed cost of doing any project
• Company XYZ has recorded following data from previous projects. How much effort is required for a 30KLOC task

FUNCTION POINT ANALYSIS

F. P. A.Inquiries are request-response pairs that do not change the internal data. For example, a request for the address of a specified employee is an inquiry. The whole sequence of asking, supplying the name, and getting the address would count as one inquiry.
Inputs are items of application data that is supplied to the program. The logical input is usually considered one item and individual fields are not usually counted separately. For example, the input of personal data for an employee might be considered one input.
Outputs are displays of application data. This could be a report, a screen display, or an error message. Again, individual fields are usually not considered separate outputs. If the report has multiple lines, for instance, a line for each employee in the department, these lines would all be counted as one output. However, some authorities would count summary lines as separate outputs.

Internal files are the logical files that the customer understands must be maintained by the system. If an actual file contained 1000 entries of personnel data, it would probably be counted as one file. However, if the file contained personnel data, department summary data, and other department data, it would probably be counted as three separate files for the purposes of counting function points.
External interfaces / files are data that is shared with other programs. For example, the personnel file might be used by human resources for promotion and for payroll. Thus, it would be considered an interface in both systems.

COUNTING UNADJUSTED FUNCTION POINTSThe individual function point items are identified and then classified as simple, average, or complex.
There is no standard for counting function points. Books have been written with different counting rules. The important thing to remember is that function points are trying to measure the amount of effort that will be needed to develop the software.

EXAMPLE IICompany XYZ spent the following effort for each life cycle phase of the latest project. Calculate the effort in terms of LOC/programmer-day and in terms of function points/programmer day. The function point estimate was 50 unadjusted function points. The finished project included 950 lines of code.
The total effort was 65 programmer-days. This gives a productivity of 950/65 = 14.6 lines of code/programmer-days. Using unadjusted function points (fp), the productivity is 50 fp/65 days = 0.77 fp/programmer-days.
