Gustav, web tool for software development time estimation

Abstract

Nowadays, time plays a very important role in the field of SW development. Estimation of development time is a key element of a software creation process. Our project is focused on improving of these estimations as for the commercial sector as scientific and educational purposes to. The time estimations are processed by analytical programming, differential evolutions and method of Use Case Points. A new web application was created based on this solution. In this application, the analysis can be performed directly in a web browser and the data can be exported for further processing. Our main objective is to help users to improve their estimations and learn directly from real data. © The Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology.
