Abstract :
Existing estimation methods have severe limitations when it comes to estimating the delivery cost of heterogeneous IT-based solutions. In this experience report we present Solution-Based Estimation, a new approach that explicitly links a solution´s architecture to its delivery cost model. Solution Based Estimation is an approach.
