Abstract

COCOMO II is a constructive cost model that is widely used in the world.With function points or source lines of code and adjustment factors as input, it can predict software cost.Software process performance model is mainly used to indicate the relationship between the attributes and product in the software development process.Based on COCOMO II and process performance model theory, the viability that COCOMO II serves as a software process performance model is introduced in this paper.Controllable factors, the way to adjust them and benefits we can get are proposed.
