Stages of COCOMO II
Stages of COCOMO
1. Stage-I
It supports estimation of prototyping. For this it uses Application Composition Estimation Model. This model is used for the prototyping stage of application generator and system integration.
2. Stage-II
It supports estimation in the early design stage of the project, when we less know about it. For this it uses Early Design Estimation Model. This model is used in early design stage of application generators, infrastructure, system integration.
3. Stage-III
It supports estimation in the post architecture stage of a project. For this it uses Post Architecture Estimation Model. This model is used after the completion of the detailed architecture of application generator, infrastructure, system integration.
COCOMO Model-Software Engineering
COCOMO-II is the revised version of the original Cocomo (Constructive Cost Model) and was developed at the University of Southern California. It is the model that allows one to estimate the cost, effort, and schedule when planning a new software development activity.
