Sizing and more

Nesma has its origin in measuring the size of software. Today, size and other metrics form the base for many activities that play a role in successful and cost-effective software projects.

SW Cost Estimating

Estimating cost and managing budgets is very important in software projects. Together with ICEAA and with support of international organizations, Nesma is involved in establishing a Software Cost Estimating Body of Knowledge (sCEBoK).
