Abstract :
Increased software demands from consumers lead CE (consumer electronics) companies towards a shift from hardware-oriented to a more software-oriented industry. Many CE companies spend a tremendous amount of money on software development and post release defect fixing. We propose a modification of the traditional six sigma approach to fully analyze and measure software development cost.
