The company needs to determine the effort in person-months needed to develop this software using the basic COCOMO model. The multiplicative factor for this model is given as 2.8 for the software development on embedded systems, while the exponentiation factor is given as 1.20. What is the estimated effort in person-months?234.25932.50287.80122.40 IS&Software Engineering gatecse-2011 is&software-engineering cocomo-model normal out-of-gatecse-syllabus + – go_editor 7.6k views answer comment Share Follow Print See 1 comment 1 1 comment reply 13Dev commented Oct 14, 2025 reply Follow flag Is this deleted now? 1 1 replyShare Please log in or register to add a comment.
Best answer 9 9 votes kLOC = 40000/1000 = 40 Effort Applied (E) = 2.8(40)^1.2 [ person-months ] = 234.22 Aditya answered Nov 21, 2014 • selected Jan 30, 2015 by ankitrokdeonsns Aditya comment Share Follow See all 3 Comments 3 3 Comments reply Harpreet Kaur commented Jun 7, 2018 reply Follow flag Please tell me how to solve the exponential part i.e 2.8(40) 1.2.tell me trick 0 0 replyShare Jeewanjot Kaur commented Oct 16, 2018 reply Follow flag Follow: https://gateoverflow.in/55666/isro2016-65 0 0 replyShare s_dr_13 commented Apr 9, 2022 reply Follow flag Use approximation technique 0 0 replyShare Please log in or register to add a comment.
